Brexit Megathread - News and commentary

  1. Three seats, so yeah maybe you should learn what you're talking about before you condescend to me. And considering that they managed to get Brexit I would say their ideas very much are relevant in terms of future policy.

  2. That is baseless defeatism, the TTIP was in crisis.

  3. No, I'm not, I'm advocating that Leftists not endorse a white nationalist campaign, I did not say they should be campaigning for Remain either. If an exit was to be made, it should have been on Leftist terms, but since the Tories are in power it will be on their terms. Think beyond a simple black vs. white binary.

  4. Oh please, I've been doing this work for over a decade, my faith in the working class is the foundation of all the work I do. But I'm also from a Southern US small town, I've spent most of my life working with mostly white working class people, so I'm abundantly aware of the racism that exists in the white working class. Socialists should be the vanguard pushing the working class to expand their consciousness, not apologizing for their actions produced by racist hysteria.

  5. Oh I'm sorry I forgot when I was putting up ads all over the UK calling for all the brown people to be thrown out. You're really going to blame that on Leftists rather than the Brexit campaign? That's just pathetic.

So in short, before you go throwing accusations about misinformation you may want to double check your knowledge of the composition of parliament and the TTIP, as well stop playing a game on the terms set by the capitalists in both the Brexit and EU forces. And can we not do the whole song and dance of putting words into my mouth like "white people are all racist" that I never said? Thanks.
