BREXIT - June 23rd 2016 vote - *ARTICLE 50 TRIGGERED!*

[theworldismine13]

Apologies, I misinterpreted the post. However, your assertion that EU migration was "unnecessary and uncalled for" lends itself to xenophobia.

My stance is that Xenophobia is a completely normal human reaction, and immigration is also normal and necessary

A leader has to know how to balance the 2, leftists like Blair and The democrats in the us do not know how to balance the 2

They use immigration simply as a tool to consolidate their power, the immigrants are their pawns, and calling people names is their mo

Low skilled immigration causes wage stagnation and increases inequality, even if people were being racist and xenophobia, that doesn't mean you should ignore the wage stagnation as Blair and the EU did

the EU was out of control, their extreme leftism on immigration is what caused the vote to go that way, as I said before their policies were based on a South Park episode by rich white educated liberals

All they had to do was fall back some on free movement, until the weaker economies in the EU develop or if Blair had simply left the immigration controls in place this would have never happened

Apologies, I misinterpreted the post. However, your assertion that EU migration was "unnecessary and uncalled for" lends itself to xenophobia.

In the context of today's immigration, there is no such thing as xenophobia. There is no IRRATIONAL fear of immigrants. Not when they refuse to integrate, commit terrorist attacks and politicians and business elites encourage immigration purposefully to water down the native population's political influence and wages.

There is racism in the world, but xenophobia is a nonsensical term.

A sharp spike in racist incidents reported after the Brexit vote

After Thursday's referendum on a "Brexit," a wave of racist incidents have been reported to British police and documented in widely shared social media posts. Through the weekend, #Postrefracism has been trending, and its contents provide a disheartening view of how Britain's vote to leave the European Union may be emboldening those who harbor virulent racist sentiments.

Police in west London were investigating what they called a "racially motivated" attack against the Polish Social and Cultural Association. Poles make up the largest foreign-born population in the United Kingdom. The organization's building was apparently defaced with graffiti that said, "Go home."

In Cambridgeshire, leaflets were apparently distributed with “Leave the EU/No more Polish vermin” written in both English and Polish.

In a stunning victory for the "Leave" campaign, Britain has voted to exit the European Union. Here's what happens next. (Jason Aldag,Adam Taylor/The Washington Post)
Those campaigning for a Brexit offered clear assurances that a new immigration system would not affect E.U. citizens already living in Britain: “There will be no change for EU citizens already lawfully resident in the UK,” the campaign noted on its website. But despite the assurances, many immigrants to Britain areunsure of their future.

Racism isn't exactly an unexpected outcome of the victory for the Brexit camp at the polls, either. Nigel Farage, the leader of the U.K. Independence Party (UKIP) and the most hard-line proponent of a Brexit, has spoken of the "n----- vote" and told reporters that he would use a racist slang term to refer to Chinese restaurants. But he and other "Brexiteers" have said that their concerns are about increasing immigration flows perceived as coming at the expense of the British-born and have nothing to do with prejudice.

Britain's massively popular tabloids have done little to calm the public's nerves over immigration, often resorting to blatant scaremongering and race-baiting. Below is a compilation of dozens of tabloid fronts doing so.

The message of most of the attacks that have been reported since Friday seems to be simple: A victory for the Brexit camp should herald the repatriation of all non-white, non-Anglo-Saxons in the U.K. Never mind that the official campaign pushing for a Brexit expressly eschewed that sentiment.

What follows is a harrowing sampling of Twitter posts detailing specific incidents.

[Trece]

Do you comprehend how incredibly stupid your statement is? Over the next 10 years Europe will experience some of the worst terrorism attacks the world has ever seen?

What world? I know you're not talking about Earth. Unless your definition of "world" is no larger than europe, and by "ever seen" you mean the year 2016, you sir definitely qualify for the worst post of 2016.

Let me help you out right quick:
Below, a list of 10 of the deadliest terrorist attacks of 2015 from around the world:



*also notice this list and others don't incorporate state sponsored or militia executions that take place in central and south america

Not only is your statement stupid, as it doesn't take into account any appreciation of the dangers other countries and continents deal with on a regular basis, it actually comes off as a post for-telling the future. Congrats on that home raid from the FBI. #staywoke and I don't mean intellectual fulfillment

Brehs we are having a discussion on a message board, with opinions on what could take place based on previous history. Do I have to provide you all with disclaimers now?

The entire point of my post is that this Brexit vote was motivated by xenophobia fueled by terrorism. The events in Paris and Brussells had a lot to do with the leave vote. Do you all think these attacks are going to just go away? It will probably get worse (and I hope I am wrong) but this will just push other countries in Europe further to the right not further to the left as some are predicting.

There will be no second referendum, cabinet agrees
Monday 27 Jun 2016

The Cabinet agreed this morning there would be no second referendum. David Cameron will spell that out in his Commons statement this afternoon.

They don’t want false hopes or complications beyond the ones already visited on the country.

Oliver Letwin is overseeing the “scoping” exercise on what is and isn’t possible in a negotiation. The idea of Michael Gove being lead negotiator dates back to when, a touch unrealistically, he and others on the Leave side thought they could persuade David Cameron to stay put for longer.

Boris Johnson just emerged from Downing Street to state again his support for a points based immigration system combined somehow with access to the single market.

One Tory MP said it was more of Boris Johnson’s cake policy, “pro having it and pro eating it” and he would have to “sort himself out.”

This really how you guys are rationalizing your rhetoric?

 

[TLR Is Mental Poison]

Why is it that people think that there are only two modes in immigration

The decision isn't between no immigration and opening the floodgates, there is an in between

There was already immigration into the uk, it's complete utter bullshyt to say opening the floodgates to Eastern European immigration was necessary, it was completely unnecessary and uncalled for

And Blair has already been exposed anyways, they wanted to make Britain more multicultural Labour wanted mass immigration to make UK more multicultural, says former adviser

Blair was just following the leftist script followed by the democrats of trying to flood the country to make it "multicultural" and assuming migrants will solidify the power of the leftist party

It had nothing to do with retirees, it's that staying in power is more important that the wage stagnation and social conflict caused by mass migration

Makes me sick to my stomach to be in complete agreement with you

They dun goofed

Immigration is supposed to be a net positive to a country, not a burden

But the failures of immigration policy don't warrant the xenophobic attacks on said immigrants. They are just capitalizing on opportunity; the anger should be with the politicians who let them in unchecked

David Cameron: We won’t trigger Article 50 now
British PM tells parliament that when to trigger negotiations is a ‘sovereign decision’ for the UK alone.

By
Vince Chadwick

6/27/16, 4:48 PM CET

Updated 6/27/16, 5:14 PM CET

Prime Minister David Cameron told parliament on Monday that Britain will not launch formal proceedings to leave the European Union “at this stage,” calling it a “sovereign decision” for Britain to take.

The Conservative leader, who announced after last week’s vote to leave the EU that he would step down as prime minister by October, said he had spoken with European leaders including Germany’s Angela Merkel and France François Hollande in recent days about the need to prepare negotiations for Britain’s departure.

Leading Brexit campaigners, including Cameron’s potential successor Boris Johnson, have said they would like informal talks to start before they launch the formal process. But a German government spokesman said on Monday that Merkel rules out any informal talks with the U.K. about its future relations with the EU until London starts the formal process to leave.

Cameron said his discussions with the German and French leaders focused in particular on “the fact that the British government will not be triggering Article 50 at this stage,” said Cameron, referring to the article in the Lisbon Treaty that member countries must invoke in order to leave the EU.

“Before we do that we need to determine what kind of relationship we want with the EU, and that is rightly something for the next prime minister and their cabinet to decide,” said Cameron. “This is our sovereign decision and it will be for Britain, and Britain alone, to decide.”

Cameron, facing parliament for the first time since the Brexit vote and the announcement of his resignation, said his cabinet had decided to set up a new “EU unit” from various government departments to negotiate Britain’s exit. He described this unit’s work as “the most complex and most important task the British civil service has undertaken in decades.”

Britain’s main interest in such talks will be to maintain access to the EU single market, although from the point of view of some remaining EU member countries, that access would require U.K. acceptance of EU rules about free movement within the bloc.

“There is obviously a very strong case for trying to remain in [the] single market in some form, but that is going to be a decision for the new government and for the parliament,” said Cameron.
