Good God!

In which I agree with Suzanne Moore.

Progressives still prefer to bully leavers rather than understand what drives them. Despising half the country is now the progressive position. So half the country are racist, old, small-minded, poor people who were seduced by a combination of Aaron Banks and delusions of empire. What these people really need is to be lectured constantly by a motley crew of metropolitan celebrities and has-been politicians (Clegg, Heseltine, Blair). Spare me, please.

A progressive who actually gets it. Well, well, well.

  1. I find it kind of ridiculous how we still talk in terms of “Leavers” and “Remainers”, although I have been guilty of it myself. The referendum was almost 28 months ago.

  2. Africans will not tolerate Empire. They will tolerate trade so they can build some nice new roads. They will have nice new things as a result of trading with the new Anglo-American order.

    They say that in the old days at least the British built roads, schools and other facilities; the Chinese these days build nothing. They take what they want and leave.

    The British, on a good or even a reasonable day, are at the forefront of civilisation.

  3. I think the portmanteau “Remoaniacs” is somehow appropriate these days. Remain and Leave are yesterday’s news.

    They remind me somewhat of that guy who was still fighting for Imperial Japan in the 1970s.

  4. “Arron” not “Aaron” but apart from that agreed. I have been openly insulted many a time by devout Remainers when I tell them I voted Leave. I have never heard a Leaver insult a Remainer in that way.

  5. Last para.

    [1]For the reason we are in this mess is a basic refusal to listen. [2]And learn.

    1. Yep

    2. Hmm, learn to ignore better? Imho that is what she’s advocating.
