As a Brexit voter, I find this a good deal. However, it seems too good to be true. We have got everything we wanted. If the EU had granted the UK rights over free movement before the referendum, they (EU) would not have had to put in the Common Fisheries and Agricultural policies and the 80% of our extra EU trade. ECJ within the UK is gone. It is just the EU trade where we stay linked. OK, what is wrong with that? Is it me? We seem to have got a better deal than expected. The EU is also not going to get the financial contributions anymore either. This seems too good to be true. I like what I am hearing, but it seems we have been able to cherry pick and cherry pick some more. Despite all the banter about this from the EU beforehand, we seem to have what we want. What am I not picking up on? I'm always suspicious.

The Inner Core EU Have Become Like the Old Untouchables in the Palace of Versailles.
The EU could have been a good idea, but with no electoral control over the inner core, we – the people can’t punish such un-elected rulers via the ballot box. This has resulted in a hijacking of a glorious project. Ruined by liberal socialists who spout their cheaply acquired nobility. Unaccountable people who impose (what they decide) is good for us. No arguments, no discussion. If you do get a vote and reject anything. You are blackmailed and forced to vote again.
The majority of UK people voted to leave the EU and an even bigger majority of the nation accept the result. Business must fund itself or perish. Some of our smaller industries can't get up to run because of the EU red tape that binds them. There are consequences of staying in and there are challenges of coming out. We have heard all of this before we voted. Many decided that staying in the EU, and having no electoral control over a second and higher tier of unelected rulers, far more troublesome than being independent. Independent and with electoral control seems safer despite the efforts of economic fear mongering. We do not want to be ruled by business people and economists. We’ve had too much of that and they have not always been right.
The people must have a choice, not a boardroom committee. They become disengaged with us (the people) and impose what they decide it right. We can see the problems of this governing apparatus much more nowadays. It will have to change and adapt or things will get worse for Europe because of the EU.
For decades now, mass migration on a level of gross irresponsibility has been easily splattered as racism. It has been tossed aside as something dirty and not worthy of attention. It has been conveniently dismissed for years with a batch of unsavoury labels to hang on anyone who dares to mention the subject. These Liberal elitists think they should have a free pass on immigration. They no longer think rank and file workers, who must make up a huge majority of the European population, should have any say concerning the mass movement of people.
The un-elected inner governing core of the EU have become like the untouchables in Palace of Versailles. How long before more nations rebel? How long before some brave soul within the EU acknowledges that a union must belong to the people and the EU is subservient to an electorate? How long before inner core EU politicians engage with an electorate whose concerns and fears must be acted upon in order to be elected to a high level of responsibility?

Brexit is Beautiful and the Once Beautiful idea of the EU is Deformed, Bitter and Twisted.
We had the Conservative politician Ian Duncan Smith come to Chatteris during the EU referendum campaign. He was greeted with much enthusiasm and today there is a feeling of optimism among the people of the Fenlands. Britain being able to make her own decisions through the electorate voting in people who are no longer answerable to a boardroom committee in Europe.
Everyone I speak with seems very happy with the result and rather confused by the remain voters of areas like London - a place completely out of touch with the small hamlets of rural England.
The EU could have been a wonderful idea if it were not hijacked by a body of people hell bent on a well-intentioned ideology that has no democratic consent. The four fundamental freedoms were made up by the unelected committee and implemented across the EU with no electoral consent from the peoples of any nation. For the most part, we got along with things until the collapse of the communist system in Eastern Europe.
At first, this seemed fine but then we began to notice that there were large numbers of people from Eastern Europe working the farms and the packing factories. The wages started to depreciate and the homegrown workers who enjoyed better working conditions and pay were gradually got rid of. The working conditions for the Poles, Lithuanians, and Estonians were worse than they had been for the Brits. No Brit could afford to do the hours at such pay and the ruthless farm gangers that run the industry exploited the migrants from Eastern Europe.
The employment agencies act as middlemen providing this cheap unskilled labour. There are now over 4 million new National Insurance numbers to accommodate these workers. There are also many with no National Insurance numbers. There is a complete glut of low-skilled workers from Eastern Europe. Also, many of their nation's drunks are here too, because they can get better welfare benefits. These peoples have also been imported with the workers, but we are not allowed to speak of the many people drinking in public and discarding their cans where ever they please. Also public urinating and defecation. I know I have ranted about this issue in the past, but part of my job involves clearing this up. Often while these migrants sit about drinking and even conversing with me. Most of the migrants are polite, but they are still a waste of space for tax payers who pay their benefits. We have enough problems with many of our homegrown Brits who exploit the system.
The ruthless British employers who exploit the working migrants will no longer employ Brits because they know they'll protest at working conditions. Brits can't afford to work in these places anymore because the wages are depreciated and they are surrounded by foreign people in their own land. When they complain they are labelled, racist.
Therefore we elect MPs who we want to stop this. Once in power, these politicians can't act because the EU preaches its fundamental principles of free movement of labour. Even when detrimental to the local population and its electorate,
The EU argues to elect Euro MPs as is our democratic right. We elected UKIP politicians in droves to go to Brussels and the EU Parliment. However, they have no say when confronting the unelected committee with its many presidents - who we had never heard of - who we never elected. - who we have no say about.
The whole EU has become a diabolical Sharrard and many of us Brits are so looking forward to leaving now. It is with sadness, but when something turns bad there is no protocol or adaptability to correct things that go so damagingly wrong.

Huge Silent Majority of Europeans Don't Like EU Policies.
I think there is a realisation among many pro-EU supporters that something must change within the EU government concerning policies that are implemented upon people that have no say in how they get such fundamental rights imposed upon them.
The EU should have political parties of all structures trying to go out and win the support from the combined EU over who rules them. The EU must be elected by the citizens of Europe and not a boardroom committee.
This will be the next step if the EU is to survive. I think it will come about. Once it does, then the EU will become better integrated. Many people see the logic in the EU, but they are becoming disillusioned with the type of EU on offer. People of Europe want a better circumstance concerning the selection of government officials they have.
I voted Brexit and can see no place in the EU that exists. I sincerely hope it gets by, but not the way it is.

Force Feeding Economical Truths No Longer Work.
Force feeding a political ideology and hijacking genuine concerns and then dismissing others. It all adds up to an economic truth - an a la carte menu, as the EU is so fond of pointing out to our more right of centre government.
This glorious European Union and its supporters don't say the same to these trendy left-wing film producers who peddle their propaganda and hide other real concerns because they do not exist in their rum little political ideology.
What if Right-wing film-makers produced documentaries about wonderful, white working-class neighbours whose lives were torn apart by mass immigration and political correctness. They would not be considered by Cannes trendy left-wing film festival organisers for movie nominations. They would be ostracised with court orders trying to bring custodial sentences upon them.

A Brexiter Who Can't Embrace the Wonderful Contribution That Multiculturalism Gives to Us!
I've never been too enthusiastic about embracing the wonderful contribution that multicultural Britain's former Governments has brought upon me. I'm the average uneducated oaf of a British citizen who gets up each morning to do his bit. I'm one of those British blokes labelled racist or xenophobics. I must be because I do not want to be an EU citizen and this is because we are forced to take millions of unskilled migrants. Many get social housing at the expense of local people. Many of the food packing industries will only employ Polish or Lithuanian. There is open discrimination against British people.
I see the hurt of my own people and the frustration of them concerning the liberal elite who seem to have all the grand words and philosophical outlook. They are very articulate indeed.
We plebs are labelled racist and xenophobic for complaining about this while politicians have continued to ignore us. When we walk around our streets hardly anyone is from our country. These immigrant people are not unkind, bad or wicked!
However, THERE ARE TOO MANY OF THEM COMING HERE!
This rubbish in the above photo is the result of migrants drinking in public places. For some reason, large numbers of them do this. Any park or seat bench, one will find them with cans of beer acquired from Eastern European Supermarkets. It is not just this one spot. It is in the parks, the churchyards, the hedgerows, it is everywhere and all the cans are from Eastern European nations. I can assure you it is not an Englishman buying them and throwing them here.
The cans are thrown in the shrubs around the benches. Some of the migrants do use bins and I thank them. However, there are many, in large numbers who just discard the cans where ever they like. I see the old women of the town who are so sad about their little hamlet. Many of them are absolutely heartbroken. Why does the news ignore these people who are labelled fascist thugs, extremists, xenophobes? I think the left of centre and biased media of our nation should hang its head in utter shame.
We talk of these worrying things in the local Cafe and can't understand why angry left wing elements brand us as racist bigots. Their anger towards us Brexiters is shocking and they try to pretend we are thugs. What is the good of grand businessmen trying to tell us they need the EU? Why say we are doing well in the EU? For the likes of ordinary people, we are not doing so well. They don't benefit from the jobs and lose out on social housing, find doctors appointments harder to get.
I was clearing up the mess in the photograph. I clear it up every single morning. I move onto other local parks and gardens and it is exactly the same. Often the migrants are sitting there drinking in public before going to work in the fields or factories. They are worked hard and get terrible wages. No one does anything to the ruthless farm hands that use these people. They will not employ Brits because they know the Brit workers would rightly complain. If a Pole or a Lithuanian complaints they get sacked and a new one from the surplus of over available cheap labour continues. The sacked migrant will then get blacklisted if he or she complains too much. Then they are forced to the job centres to receive welfare benefits and then they realise that one has to be barmy to work the fields or factories under such conditions. Some still do and some don't. For those that do, it makes employment more difficult for the Brits. For those who don't, it leaves the social security system with more payments to make. Unemployed Brits suffer and we have imported Europe's unemployed. For the Brits that work, their taxes go towards the unemployment bill and the EU contribution of £350 million a week so that big business gets free tariffs exporting or importing goods. How is that beneficial for us everyday Joes who do the manual work? Why pretend it's only £350 million a week when the unemployment benefits are not included and the tax credits, sent out of the country back to the nation of origin, are not added in? We have come to realise that the left of centre news media presents us with economical truths and no one believes them anymore. Nick Clegg of the liberal Democrats gets a platform when he scraps just 8% of the vote.
I don't blame a migrant for wanting to come here. I understand that no one should put up with such things as they do in the fields or in the factories, but it does not help the ordinary working Brit either. The Business entrepreneurs who try to tell us what is our interests. The Remain politicians who try to tell us what is good for us. The celebrity actors who try to tell us what we should do. They all tell us what is best for us uneducated oafs and others that try to label us. It no longer has an effect anymore.
Now these people are trying to pretend that we Brexiters did not vote to leave the single market. They are trying to change the goal posts even though they lost the referendum.
Brexiters voted mainly for control of borders and that meant leaving the single market because it is a founding principle of EU - freedom of movement. We Brexiters understood that and guess what? We don't want it!
With all the squabbling going on with the Remain die hards - still, we want to leave and we refuse to embrace free movement of people.
When I was clearing up, this up rubbish in the photo, a Polish man of about 27 was sitting here drinking a beer. He complained to me about his job in a pumpkin field.
He said; "I work twenty-four days none stop. Seven pounds twenty pence an hour."
I stopped to let him say his piece.
He continued. "I ask for one day off and they sack me. English people do this to me."
I raised my mobile and took this photo above on this blog and then showed it to him,
He looked and knew what my meaning was. I had not said a word but I was vexed and thought it was a bit rich of him complaining to me. A person he has no respect for in a town where the local people are in tears over the way it has become. On the news, our town has 40% people from Eastern Europe now in social housing. Every time a new estate is built we Brits know we don't stand a chance of getting one. Many, are the sacked farm workers and because their plight becomes needier and our government protocols can be exploited in their favour; they jump the ladders and get houses first. More welfare receivers because many can't afford to work on the farm fields once this happens. They would find it hard to afford the rent on farm labour wages. They then come into the mainstream of work and the packaging factories exploit them as they get rid of Brit workers.
When the left of centre newspapers like the Guardian complain about Amber Rudd wanting to know why she wants these companies to come clean, the elitist label pinners come out in full force. Accusing this Rudd woman of being a fascist and like a Nazis. It's because these companies do not want to be exposed.
Maybe some politicians are waking up to the fact that big mouthed trendy left wingers have been hogging the political platform for too long. Maybe they are going to be brave enough to stick to their guns. I hope and pray they do so and I hope and pray for hard Brexit and the total leaving from Europe's cursed single market. The ordinary people of this nation have been peddled a lie about the Common Market from the day we were forced to go in. It had one aim and our elitists would never dare to give us a choice.
Luckily, we had a naive and weak Prime Minister who did not understand his electorate. If he did, he would never have called a referendum and we Brexiters would never have had an opportunity to sack Brussels and it's left week groups that have highjacked the EU and turned it into a faceless beaurocratic monster.
Brexit must mean Brexit = complete and utter!

Guy Verhofstadt is a man with Cheaply Acquired Nobility.
Guy Verhofstadt is ranting on about democracy. What democracy? No one ever asked us to vote for the EU President. We never got to decide the political ideology of the unelected EU. It was imposed upon us. Perhaps the intention was well meaning, but until the EU goes to 500+ million peoples to win a vote with clear policies that Europeans can choose for themselves, this unelected body is going to continue to lose hearts and minds. I voted to leave. Not because I wanted to, but because I don't want this type of EU. It is a great shame because the EU could have been a wonderful idea. It has been hijacked by well-meaning liberals that are totally out of touch with the millions of little people they should be winning votes from. Guy Verhofstadt is a man with cheaply acquired nobility among others like him. Unelected people who want to pat themselves on the back. People who don't fear or respect an electorate because they don't exist for their elitist parliament.

A Pro-Brexit Interview from YouTube
The fall out from Brexit is happening, but the doom and gloom predicted does not seem to be here yet. Many are worried that new Prime Minister is going to accept bad conditions to remain in the single market. Many want to leave and charge tariffs. It might come to that yet.

When David Cameron Woke the Goblins?
At the Bloomberg speech, David Cameron woke all the dispirited goblins from none voting slumber? Many had not registered to vote. This was because no one political party offered them anything they wanted. Some were so unconvinced that they had not bothered voting for decades.
Then on this day of Bloomberg, it became something like the movie called Labyrinth, when the girl calls into the mirror and berates her baby brother and wishes for the goblins to take him away. She has to say the right words a number of times. We see the goblins behind the mirror saying, “She’s going to say it.” They gasp and hold their breaths, waiting with expectant glee.
And so did the goblins of Britain’s electorate. We sat enthralled on the other side of our TV screens.
“He just said it!” – A referendum on the EU.
Then the doors blew open and a prize big mouth in the form of Nigel Farage stepped up for the coming referendum campaign. “What’s said is said,” replied the wonderful wicked goblin king.
A few month later he was in the EU parliament inviting them to laugh.
We mischievous goblins had a noble fool in the form of David Cameron, promising this and that with ill-deserved confidence. We goblins knew he would come back with nothing because of the wicked loud mouth goblin king – our adorable Nigel – kept telling us.
Wow! It was so wonderful. We had our fool who believed he was a champion. He got re-elected by people who hated his party, but they wanted the referendum. No other party dared to offer such a thing and therefore none stood a chance. There was David Cameron promising everything to goblins who knew he would deliver nothing. Off he went to make a deal with an uncompromising dragon.
When Dave (Our Prime Minister) came back from his EU chat with his bag of empty sweet wrappers, he still tried to sell them to his electorate. He brought finance people and kings from far away lands to tell us stories of what would happen if we did not vote to stay in the glorious EU. The land of honey and gold where you can buy lots of wonderful things. All this for the price of sovereignty and a new political ideology imposed upon all, by unelected strange people from foreign lands.
Then the Brexit mavericks came out of the closet. One was a former mayor of London – an assassin who stepped up to wield the knife – another glory hunting fool chasing a dream. His name was Boris Johnson. Still, his loud mouth would be a great tool to scream for goblin support.
Then the clever ones stood behind him and some hid behind the foolish champion David. These were the real players who stayed in the shadows and watched the mudslinging. On the sidelines was our goblin king Nigel who could be as politically incorrect as he liked because the other Maverick Boris was doing all the P.C. stuff and could disown the goblin king at a distance. He gave Brexit the air of decency (Something needed because Remain campaigners were labelling Brexiters as racists.) A two-pronged, loud mouth, attack. One with nothing to lose and the other chasing everything. (Prime Minister of Brexit Britain)
On referendum day the goblins all raced to the polls with great aplomb and the electoral turnout was bigger than any had seen for a long time.
I went to bed after casting my vote. I got up the following morning and turned on the news channel. It was very early and I was preparing for work. The news presenter was making the statement that the UK had reversed the decision of 1975 and was to leave the EU. I went back to the bedroom and told my wife. I could not help it. I had to wake her and let her know. She got up straight away delighted with the result.
I was so pleased. My Mother texted me. It just said, “Won.”
Then came the fallout from Europe, which was unsettling because we don’t dislike or have ill will towards our fellow Europeans. We just want our MPs to have ultimate power on things in the UK. Not governed by unelected people in Brussels. It was horrible to see some of the decent people of the EU voicing their dismay and upset. But it is not them we are vexed with. It is the unelected and unaccountable Presidents who keep hammering the EU ideology into us.
The UK must control immigration and when small up and coming companies want to sell the UK produce to Brazil or India; the EU should not make them fill out all the legislation necessary to comply with this trade. It cripples small business. It can’t grow.
When our elected people mess up, we can vote to be rid of them. Even if some of us goblins want to return to unconcerned slumber. The referendum gave us the one chance to sack the unelected governors of Brussels and us goblins went for it.
Now we have lost the loud mouth maverick too - hooray! hooray! Their jobs are done. The mayor is out of the running for Prime Minister as assassins never get the job anyway. Now the serious players are standing upon the stage. The assassin was, in turn, character assassinated in one foul swoop by his adjutant Michael Gove in a move worthy of a Shakespeare drama.
Meanwhile - the patsy is gone. Long live the loud-mouthed patsy - Boris Johnson. You did wonderfully well – now get lost and close the door on the way out - there's a good chap.
Nigel Farage will wait on the sidelines like a ravenous dog watching for any sign of a stitch up. I don’t think there will be and then this dog can run off into the field of obscurity. His grand work done. I would give him a little more appreciation than Boris, but he is not the kind of man we need in the diplomacy core.
Bring on the real players. The clever cowards – the quite rascals with no hearts, yet a will to follow the instructions of the electorate. There will be other rewards after the EU divorce for the newcomers.
I see Theresa May and Liam Fox – an English woman or a Scottish man. I know the English woman was lacklustre on the Remain side in the EU debate. She did not really declare. Clever lady! She sat in the shadows.
The Scotsman Liam Fox. Mild of manner, but calm and collected. A Leave campaigner that refrained from the scaremongering.
Theresa and Liam - two very level-headed people indeed. Now they are prepared to take on the long Kiss Goodbye with the EU.
Theresa May is firmly committed to the leave vote now it has been cast and there will be no back door stitch up or the second referendum. Out is out. All knew she did not like the way things were with the EU, but she was no maverick. She played it sensible and will methodically set about unravelling the EU ways from our UK.
Liam Fox often politely spoke of his disbelief in the EU and that the UK could get by outside of it. He was not loud but he let people know where he stood on the matter. I think Theresa might get the job of Prime Minister and Liam will be at her side during the Brexit negotiation. I also think Michael Gove will play a part too.
If they do bring in other Brexiters from other parties, I would like to see Gisela Stewart – the German lady in the Labour party. She was a grand Brexiter too.
To the foolish knights, the Mavericks, and the devious shadow lurkers – Thank You.
