Brexit

[yakov_a_jerkov]

Вариант Мэй снова не прошел. С Борисом Джонсом и т.д. Все равно, 286-344.

David Schneider:

If I’d voted Leave and had hoped to Leave half as much as I want to Remain, today would be a depressing day. Shame on the liars and charlatans and carpet-baggers who, motivated by wet dreams of Empire or in order to make cash from the chaos, conned and manipulated people.

Shame on Cameron who lit the match, and the Brexiters who poured on petrol and May who keeps sending the fire brigade to the wrong address and all the other Tories who, even as we teeter on the cliff about to plummet, only worry about their party as the country burns.

"Conned and manipulated people" и "only worry about their party" -- это и американскую ситуацию очень напоминает.

То, что следует за этим голосованием, хорошо объясняет эта диаграмма:

Позорники. Я, в принципе, рада, что все так происходит. Подольше бы у них смута была и проблемы. Потому что у троллингового голосования должно быть наказание. Иначе так и будут троллить (с Трампом то же самое).

Было бы неплохо, если б те кто голосовал за Трампа получали Трампа, а те кто за Хиллари -- Хиллари. К сожалению Трампа получают все (и даже те, кто вообще в других странах живет). С Брекзитом аналогично. Да и дураков жизнь не учит. Никакой гарантии нет от других Трампов. Так что весело, но не очень.

Диаграмма прелестная.

Эхо отчета Мюллера в Великобритании:

And whatever Mueller might have concluded, the sources of Banks’s donation to Leave.EU are still under investigation by the National Crime Agency. And we still have no answers as to why the Russian embassy targeted him and offered him lucrative business deals in the week Leave.EU launched its campaign to take Britain out of the European Union. Banks has never answered that question, preferring instead to claim a media ‘smear’, but what became clear on Sunday night was how closely both he and Farage appear to identify their own fate with Trump’s. <...>
Banks and Farage are right to celebrate. Farage’s contacts with Julian Assange and Roger Stone – Trump’s campaign aide arrested on charges of lying to Congress about his efforts to contact WikiLeaks – lay full square within the scope of Mueller’s investigation. As were Banks and his sidekick, Andy Wigmore,’s, contacts with the Russian embassy, where they continued to have meetings in the period after Brexit while they were on the campaign trail with Trump.
But in Britain, we don’t have the bandwidth or the resolve or the understanding of the bigger picture to want to even try to understand this web of interconnected relationships. We stand by as Arron Banks and Nigel Farage ape Donald Trump. We remain incurious about the ties that connect them and the money behind them. We watch as they attack the press and seek to undermine our institutions.
