With under two weeks to go to the EU Referendum the political scene is quite strange and I suspect that opinion polls are being seriously manipulated, because, despite polls showing a surge by the Leave campaign and the latest polls actually giving them a lead of 10 points, the betting odds are still predicting a 60-40 vote to remain. The average odds are still 1/3 to remain and 11/4 to leave. Because Scotland is by far the most enlightened and intelligent part of this sorry United Kingdom, Scotland is 1/200 to remain. Northern Ireland is also showing a great deal of common sense and humanity at 1/25 to remain. So, a leave majority in both Scotland and Northern Ireland is unthinkable as the bookies could never get it as wrong at such odds. As a result, there is quite a large disparity of opinion and voting intentions between Scotland, Northern Ireland, England, the opinion polls, and the bookmaking fraternity. Scottish voting intentions should not surprise people because the Scots do not share England's hatred of others and do not share their racist attitudes to foreigners, attitudes that are being ferociously encouraged by the English press and the fascist elements within the pigsty, and it is only 18 months since the Scots were themselves subjected to this kind of utterly shameless lying propaganda. We are still very acutely aware that all the promises of the British establishment were a pack of lies in September 2014, and so are very sceptical about anything a pigsty politician tells us.
If you read me during the Scottish referendum you will remember that I ignored the bookies and believed the pollsters and got it quite wrong in the end. Of course the bookies can get it wrong, but experience makes me more inclined to trust their judgement on such things. One of the issues highlighted in the press is how the Leave campaign are employing what is known as 'push' polling. This is an American form of polling that poses the question in a way that you are very likely to get a desired answer, such as "Would you vote to Remain in the EU and be swamped by two million refugees within the next two years that will include thousands of criminals and terrorists who will rape your wives and daughters and blow up all your towns and cities?" That is of course an exaggeration, but it is that type of polling that I suspect is skewing the figures.
Such is the appalling level of propaganda and blatant lying that is taking place, particularly by the Leave campaign, that two Tory MPs have, in the past two days, abandoned the Leave campaign because of their lies and racism (that is what they called it, not me), saying that they cannot continue supporting such a mendacious and despicable campaign. They are both now going to vote to remain. People from outside the UK will have difficulty believing the atrocious level of politics that we have sunk to in this sorry nation, we are really right down in the gutter. It also comes as quite a surprise that Tories can actually have a conscience as lying and racism is their default position; however, a penitent is always welcome. Today we had a young lady tell the Prime Minister on television, that she was going to vote remain despite the fact that in her opinion he has f....d the country up. That is how sickened the general public have become, that the Prime Minister can be spoken to in this way in public. What this young lady told the Camoron in this very public forum was
“I’m voting remain but nothing to do with you guys, I hate the Tories and I’m just going to say you’ve f....d every f...ing thing up in this country; you’ve screwed students, you’ve screwed the disabled, the vulnerable. I’ve heard that you want to take back the Human Rights Act and I could totally believe that, I wouldn’t put it past you at all, Dodgy Dave.” She then went on to say that she did not want to see the Conservative party given any more power because that would be the “worst thing for us right now”.
What interests me most about this encounter is that I told you recently that one of the characteristics of this Tory Party and its determination to consolidate free market neoliberalism, was its anarchic tendency to consistently undermine traditional authority, whether it was the law, traditional institutions, or the moral and ethical framework of society etc. The Camoron's confrontation with an ordinary member of the public who showed no respect whatsoever for his authority, either of his person or his office, should give him and his disciples immediate pause for thought, because what is good for the goose is most certainly good for the gander. The pigsty had better think carefully about how they conduct themselves because this was a classic case of the unintended consequences of intentional human action. Their authority is slipping and they are coming under increasing scorn, ridicule and disgust. They are being revealed for what they truly are, despicable. You have been warned.
