Roberts – Brexit: What Is It About?
by Paul Craig Roberts
If you read the presstitute media, Brexit—the referendum tomorrow on the UK’s exit from the EU— is about racism. According to the story line, angry rightwing racists of violent inclinations want to leave the EU to avoid having to accept more dark-skinned immigrants into England.
Despite the constant propaganda against exit, polls indicated that more favored leaving the EU than remaining until a female member of Parliament, Jo Cox, was killed by a man that a witness said shouted “Brexit.” Cox was an opponent of leaving the EU.
The UK government and presstitute media used Cox’s murder to drive home the propaganda that violent racists were behind Brexit.
However, other witnesses gave a different report. The Guardian, which led with the propaganda line, did report later in its account that “Other witnesses said the attack was launched after the MP became involved in an altercation involving two men near where she held her weekly surgery.” Of course, we will never know, because Cox’s murder is too valuable of a weapon against Brexit.
There is no doubt that many in the UK are disturbed at the transformation of their country. One doesn’t have to be a racist to feel that one’s country is being stolen from them by people of alien cultures. The British have a long history of fighting off invaders, and many believe they are experiencing an invasion, although not an armed one. An armed one, of course, would not have the government’s and media’s support.
Steve Says…
Of the people I have spoken to – an overwhelming majority want to leave the EU, so much so that any vote to stay will obviously be rigged. The British no longer have any trust in their mouth piece government working for a global corporate agenda and do not want an UN-elected dictatorship ruling over them.
I actually heard a person say they want to stay in…. that’s the only one… it was a stupid personthat had not looked into the matter but just went along with it because they wanted to continueon their twice yearly cigarette run to France to buy duty free and were concerned that if Britainleft the EU then they could buy their duty free cigarettes.
