R.I.P. BREXIT.

So, after all of the promises, commitments and guarantees, our incompetent Prime Minister, aided by the incompetents of the European Research Group and those in Parliament who are determined to prevent the UK from ever leaving the European Union, has finally caved in. The chances of Brexit happening have been reduced to almost nothing.

The commitment of David Cameron to abide by the result of the 2016 referendum. The manifesto commitments made by both the Conservative and Labour parties at the time of the 2017 general election. The repeated promises and guarantees given by Theresa May, and the repeated statements made by other parliamentarians telling us all that they would honour the referendum result and their manifesto promises. All lies, not worth the breath expended in making them.

Prime Minister May told us all, in no uncertain terms, that she would pursue a deal with eth EU but that if nothing acceptable was achieved, we would leave without a deal. A lie. She said that we would leave on 29th March, come hell or high water; another lie. She said we would not take part in the forthcoming elections to the European Parliament, almost certainly yet another lie.

She now pursues a path which will almost certainly see the UK tied into a customs' union with the EU which will prevent any meaningful Brexit. Much of the House of Commons, which is fundamentally opposed to Brexit and to keeping its word to the people, has connived in this total betrayal of democracy.

Who will ever trust the word of any politician again ? Who will bother voting ever again, for what is the point ? Whatever the people vote for, those representatives foisted upon us by the political elite will do whatever they want, and sod the people. As someone who has voted in most elections, local and parliamentary, since 1971 as well as the referendums of 1975 and 2016, I will not vote again unless it be for a party dedicated to freeing us from the European yoke and that will never be any of the current major players. 

Disillusioned ? You bet I am.
