BREXIT - MPS to get a vote

BREXIT - MPS to get a vote

38 Degrees

This is from 38 degrees who wanted to stay in the EU despite the country voting to leave.

From 38 Degrees

It’s official. Our MPs are getting a vote on BREXIT. Their decision will define our country for generations to come. It’ll change the lives of all of us living here.

Every day, MPs argue about what kind of BREXIT would be best for British people. But so far, we - the actual people - have been completely left out of the discussion.

This is our chance to change that, and it starts today. There are millions of us across the length and breadth of this country. If we work together, we can mount a massive campaign to make sure that before our MPs vote, they listen - really listen - to what we want from BREXIT.

With each step of BREXIT, we can make sure MPs are feeling the heat from us. We can drown out the lobbyists, the big business interests, the political insiders - and make sure parliament hears our demand for a BREXIT that works for the many, not the few.

But we’ll be taking on giants. It’ll be a long, hard slog. And it won’t come cheap.

Years from now, our history books will have a chapter dedicated to 2017 and BREXIT.

Nigel Farage knows it. The tabloids know it. The MPs campaigning to ignore the result of the referendum know it. Big business lobbyists know it too. That’s why they’re all working night and day to push their different BREXIT agendas. They’d much rather people like you and me kept quiet.

Days like today are no time to sit back and see what happens. If you chip in today, here’s how we can work together to make sure our voices are heard during the BREXIT negotiations

We can train and organise thousands of 38 Degrees members to meet our MPs and take our crowd sourced plan for BREXIT straight into the heart of government.

We can hire a crack team of analysts and investigators to run through the government’s plans for BREXIT with a fine-tooth comb - and expose the plans that put us or the issues we care about at risk.

We can scale up the 38 Degrees staff team dedicated to BREXIT, to make sure our people-powered plan is all over the media, in parliament and everywhere Theresa May turns.

We can pay for billboards, leaflets, Facebook ads and events in parliament to make sure MPs can’t miss our demands about what we want from BREXIT.

Today, we have a choice: sit back and watch the BREXIT deal happen without us. Or stand up for what we believe in, and do what we can to get the best deal possible. Robert - will you do your bit and chip in?

Chip in as much as you can afford to help the cause > https://speakout.38degrees.org.uk/campaigns/can-you-chip-in


On our own, BREXIT can feel too big to take on. But that’s the magic of 38 Degrees. When we take action together, we’re more than a match for any politician.

Just look what we did when we were faced with TTIP, the biggest corporate takeover attempt in our lifetime. Thousands upon thousands of us joined together and we brought that dangerous deal to its knees.

We need to harness that same energy and passion now to get the BREXIT deal we need and deserve.

Thanks for all you do,

David and the 38 Degrees team

The Great EU Debate - Full Debate (Jun 21st)

The Great EU Debate - Full Debate (Jun 21st)

One day to go and I bet most people have either made their minds up a long time ago. People will either stick to their guns or they still don't know which they will vote. If so they will probably wobble and keep to what they know by voting remain when they enter the voting booth. A fear of a leap into the unknown etc.

If you didn't watch the BBC's great EU debate last night you can catch up on it now. This was shown on the BBC on June the 21st.

BBC 'The Great Debate' - EU Referendum Debate - Part One

An Interesting Comment on the EU Referendum

An Interesting Comment on the EU Referendum

I am re-posting a comment I just got from a Peter Bowers on a recent article on the BREXIT Referendum.

I thought I would re-post as I suspect it will reflect the views of many people who like parts of the EU or Europe but not others.

Please feel free to comment with your own views on the EU vote.

I want to stay in the EU but just wish it would be reformed so it goes back to just being a trading block with some shared security and economic policies that are fair to all countries.

I don't like the fact Germany is the most powerful country in the EU and can stamp all over Greece. Both have fiddled their figures during their time in the EU but Germany gets away with it as they are the most powerful nation in the block.

I like being able to travel freely in the EU and don't want to lose the ability to go and move to Spain or France if I wanted to but I also don't want thousands of migrants jumping on vans at the EU tunnel.

It's hard as I know they won't reform as I want them to they have had 50+ years to do so and haven't yet so what hope is there that they will.

What gets me is we haven't heard much about David Cameron's "new deal" with the EU which was supposed to stop us wanting to leave. It obviously isn't worth the paper it is written on otherwise we would be hearing about it all the time.

I agree with quite a lot of that comment. The "Better Together" campaign talk about having to be within the EU to reform it from the inside but they have had over 50 years to make it democratic and all that's happened is that it's become less democratic over time.

I want to be able to travel and live around Europe easily and want free trade and co-operation on security and economic matters.

However what I don't want is a Federal Europe where we are just a state with little power and where our laws are not made in Westminster but Brussels. It is perfectly clear that David Cameron's new agreement with the EU doesn't do any of that. It just makes some small changes to our benefits system, nothing worth mentioning at all.

How do you feel about the "new deal" our Prime Minister made with the EU? 

US Commentator admits Obama is hypocritical in his BREXIT comments

US Commentator admits Obama is hypocritical in his BREXIT comments

Watch this video that shows a US commentator, Pippa Malmgren, talking about Obama recently telling the British public that we should vote to stay in the EU.

She admits that the US would never allow the same sort of foreign interference as the EU therefore it's hypocritical for him to back David Cameron up.

She also believes the UK population will pay no attention to his views and that she believes that the wording Obama used was probably Cameron asking him to "just say this"....

 

Would the USA allow the EU to make it's laws, I don't think so.

Would the USA pay any attention to David Cameron if he told them to vote one way or another in their upcoming US Presidential election, nope, so why has Obama stuck his nose into the BREXIT campaign?

Did David Cameron ask him to make some pro-stay comments or was it purely his own opinion? The White House claims that it was but Pippa suggests that the wording he used in his speech such as "Britain would go to the back of the queue", rather than the more American "back of the line", suggests some UK influence in his speech.

What do you think of President Obama's comments?

Right Wing BREXIT Views

Right Wing BREXIT Views

If you viewed the earlier piece about left wing points of view on BREXIT then you may want to hear some right wing views.

The two most often heard voices are from UKIP leader Nigel Farage and the Tory MEP Daniel Hannan.

Here we listen to their views on leaving the EU. Here is Daniel Hannan discussing why we should leave the EU, debating Sky TV presenter Lucy Thomas about the free movement of people, Goldman Sachs and the City of London.

 

Here is Nigel Farage giving one of his famous speeches in the EU parliament which often makes the other MEP's bang their heads into their tables.

He discusses the migrants coming into the UK and the possibility of ISIS infiltrators due to their getting EU passports after staying in an EU country for enough time to then gain entry to the UK.

 

And for fun here is a collection of clips of the two of them together on BBC's Question Time taking on the stay campaigners.



Here is Tory politician, and anti big brother campaigner, David Davis talking about why he is for leaving the EU.



So some politicians from the right wing and their views on why they want to leave the EU.

David Cameron may have got US President, Barack Obama, to state that the UK should vote to stay in the EU, which has really got the backs up from a lot of people.

He wouldn't allow the UK to interfere with US politics so why should we allow him to do so with ours?

Do big names stating that we should stay or leave the EU convince you to vote one way or another or do foreign politicians sticking their noses in make you want to do the opposite just to spite them?
