    The Brexit Party

    With Theresa May being a total Quisling, with Labour being run by a second rate Commy, with the Lib Dems being the standard joke, and with the SNP doing anything to screw us over, it's time for The Brexit Party to smash them all and get us out like we were promised.

    UKIP, alas have gone the way of The National Front. Onwards and upwards with the great Nigel, and lets's get out like we were promised.

    It was always The National Front with a coat of paint, all these parties are. That's who you are, the posh side of The Front. Embrace it or change.

    No, but it might make you rethink your ideas vis-a-vis the league title.

    Never was under Nigel. UKIP were the only party to specifically ban any member of a far right organization. Try again.

    Who do you think they were voting for? This Gerard Batten bloke was a member of the party while 'Nigel' was in charge.

    Just admit that your vision of England (because let's also admit that like all the other parties, you don't give a fuck about N. Ireland/Wales/Scotland) is what The Front want.

    I'll vote for it, but it needs to fold sooner rather than later or get absorbed into a reformed/rebuilt Conservative Party, because Nigel Farage being in the news all the time isn't great for the cause.

    Gerard was in the Anti-Federalist League, which was a Euro Sceptic party, and nothing else. I have met him. The guy lives in cloud-cuckoo land. Once again, no memeber of a far right organization could ever have joined UKIP.

    I reckon getting the likes of 'Sargon of Akkad' involved is loller than anything Gerard Batten actually believes. An absolute classic of the old people trying to connect with young people genre, second only to that shithouse agenda Labour have got to revitalise the bollocks high street.

    Do you think The National Front broadly agree with your policies?

    The MSM hate him because he goes against the grain. Remember, The EU (or Common Market as we were led to believe) was formed by bankers, is run by bankers, and is regulated by bankers.

    And bankers were the cause of this country going bankrupt 10 years back. Why anyone would vote to remain, literally beggars belief.

    That is a question for them. But The Brexit party certainly do not agree with the National Front's racist policies.

    Yet despite this, The EU (note the EU, not the Eurozone) have done more anti-capitalist shit than any other government in modern history...

    Who brought Microsoft to court over monopoly standards in the early 00's?
    Who has banned GM foods?
    Who introduced the only internet privacy bill? (while the UK government is hoovering up your deets to stop you watching porn)
    Who forced Ireland to take 15 billion quid from Apple and put it into their own coffers?

    etc. etc.

    The UN is shit and has huge amounts of flaws, doesn't mean I think we should blow it up.

    Farage? You can't knock his part in getting the vote in the first place, but every bit of relevant polling says he puts off as many people as he attracts (who would more than likely vote that way anyway), so if it comes down to his party having to win an election for us to leave then it isn't happening.

    Your first point is nullified due to the fact that sovereignty should not have been taken away from countries without a vote. Brown sold us out. By the way, most of those policies would have been introduced by soveriegn European nations given the chance.

    Your second point is a total cop out on your behalf. It is a valid point so answer it.

    I'm not knocking Nigel, far from it. Just pointing out that the MSM have done everything in their power to make him out to be a reincarnation of Hitler. He is a good guy, and a good laugh to boot.

    'You' voted to enter the European Union. In the European Parliament, where the 4 things I mentioned were brought to the European Commission because of issues raised by MEPS. The MEP that you vote for to represent you. What does Gordon Brown have to do with it?

    Just because the French and the Germans bother to organise their MEPs to vote for what they want doesn't make it unfair, it just shows how utterly shit the UK civil service has been for decades.

    You say these policies would be introduced by sovereign nations. I literally mentioned an example where the EU introduced privacy laws while the UK is going to make you sign up to a list to watch online pornography (without voting on it) so how does that math work?

    On the second point, I'm not a registered member of a party, doesn't stop me agreeing/voting/donating money to one. Tommy Robinson might not have been a UKIP member but I bet you a blue passport he voted for them.

    As usual with these idiots it's a load of bluster and guff rather than anything pragmatic and concrete. They've had years to get together some kind of detailed outline of what they actually mean by this stuff but never get further than "dey took err jerbs" levels of wailing.

    Focus is probably on another cushty 5 year salary and perks number.

    When the UK ends up staying in it's going to have the most ragtag bunch of misfits for MEPs ever seen. It's a proper chancer's charter at the moment to get yourself set for life.

    Top boy the artist formerly known as Tommy Robinson is running as an MEP in the North West. Funny how they're all wadded by this waffle from American nut jobs. But taking back control etc etc

    You realize regulation helps big business right, because they can scale the costs more effectively relative to small and medium-sized competition? Why do you think the Democrat Party in the US is overwhelmingly supported by Silicone Valley / Wall Street?

    “Regulation” doesn’t help any business with its bottom line.

    I could tell you why Silicon Valley is full of Democrats, and it’s not that.

    Is “Silicone Valley” the porn industry or the plastic surgery industry?

    Both Silicon Valley and Wall Street have a pretty significant number of Democrats simply due to geography.

    One of the lads I work with has finished up The Iron Lady. I had a moment where I wondered if Blair would ever get a book / movie effort like that.

    How about increased market share because of diminished competition and lack of upward pressure from smaller companies?

    So you realize regulation then that regulation isn't necessarily "anti-capitalist" so much as (likely) "pro-crony capitalist / corporatism"? Glad we are in agreement bruh.

    On face value this is definitely true in some sectors, though not in all - environmental regulations for instance definitely hurt more the bigger you are.

    You’ll note that a lack of regulation will also result in a steady accretion of power by the largest businesses, without the oversight needed to at least make them function in a socially acceptable manner.

    Yes, this is what explains why there are not a lot of competitors in a heavily regulated industry like the production of commercial jets.
    The regulatory pressures are the significant hurdle. Costs are increased but it is at best the 10th most important thing. Significant regulatory infrastructure is more likely a signal of an industry with a lot of sunk costs.

    I mean, regulatory capture as the defining corporate issue in Silicon Valley? Really?

    I said they'd done more of 'x' not that they are 'x'. Reading appears to be as much of a struggle as forming an interesting thought. Do better.
