John Cleese skewers Auntie Beeb, the UK and Emily Maitlis

Further, John Cleese is leaving the UK and heading for the Caribbean. He’s fed up with the United Kingdom and doesn’t mind saying so.

Interviewer Emily Maitlis tried to convince Mr Cleese that the BBC conducts “robust news reporting” — “come on Maitlis, pull yourself together” — but, well, it would appear that the trust level of the UK media as compared to the rest of the EU countries is dead last out of 33. Turkey beats the UK for trusted media. Cleese objects to what he terms the “lying and the triviality.” In essence: Fake News.

“Least trusted does not necessarily mean not true,” Maitlis countered.

Cleese also pointed out something amazing: Monty Python is more popular in the US than it is in England. Cleese suggests that is because Python would overshadow what passes for current “comedy” in the UK which is, uh, no comedy. Thanks, PC Leftists.

Cue Jerry Seinfeld and the PC Police in the United States.

The sad state of affairs that Cleese admitted? In all of 2018 he’s only been in the UK for two weeks.

I find myself, essentially, in the camp of John Cleese these days. We are older, well off, and don’t mind saying what we’ve been thinking and holding back for years because, frankly, we are at the point in our lives where we couldn’t care less what anyone thinks of us. I’m not here to impress people any more. People are here to impress me.

Truly, that is quite liberating.

Live long enough to try it.

UK Leftists CHEAT on Brexit, then want to dismiss results

Brexit Queen BacksTrue to form with Leftists the globe over, first they cheated at the Brexit vote and, now, not having gotten their way, simply want to dismiss the vote altogether.

Perfect.

Why vote?  Why waste your time, when the Leftist Elitist Ruling Class will do as it pleases with little pushback from media?

First, the cheating, from BreitbartUK:

Brexit CHEATERS3M+ ‘Remain’ Petition Uses ‘Script’ To ‘Fake’ Signatures: 25,000 From North Korea, 2,800 From Uninhabitable Antarctic

by Raheem Kassam

Questions are being raised as to the true number of UK citizens signing a petition to urge another European Union membership referendum as evidence emerged that activists are encouraging foreign signatories. Some critics claim that a “bot” or “script” is being used to automatically generate names and signatories.

As of early Sunday afternoon, over 3.1 million signatures had been registered on the petition named: “EU Referendum Rules triggering a 2nd EU Referendum” which calls for the “Government to implement a rule that if the remain or leave vote is less than 60% based a turnout less than 75% there should be another referendum.”

But an analysis of the data on the petition shows that at least 6 per cent of the signatories, or nearly 200,000 are from foreign countries. While foreign-based UK nationals are allowed to sign UK petitions, some believe that many of these are fraudulent given that Remain activists are handing out post codes online in order to elicit more signatures from abroad.

When abject cheating happened to fail, an outright overturning of the people’s vote is next up from the Leftist Playbook.  FoxNews.com writes:

Brexit remorse? UK lawmaker calls for Parliament to ignore EU referendum

The aftershocks of Thursday’s referendum on British membership in the European Union continued to reverberate Saturday with one lawmaker saying Parliament should overturn the result.

Voters in England, Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland and Gibraltar opted to leave the 28-nation bloc by the relatively narrow margin of 1.2 million votes out of more than 33 million cast. The result revealed deep regional and generational divides in the United Kingdom, with young voters, London and Scotland overwhelmingly voting “Remain.” By contrast, older voters, the rest of England and Wales voted “Leave” by similary large margins.

It initially appeared that many voters quickly developed buyer’s remorse after the vote, with more than 2 million people apparently signing an online petition calling for a second referendum to be held. But it was revealed Sunday that many of those signatures were faked, with hackers from Anonymous and the online community 4 Chan likely responsible, Heat Street reported.

See the first article, above.

What to do, then?  Ignore it all.  Tear it down.  “Too many ignorant people in the UK.  We need to push their votes aside and do what we, the parliament, know is best for those brain-dead Britons who voted for Brexit.”

Once again, Leftists insisting they know better than anyone else what is better for you, including you.

If they cheat and can’t win, then wish to cancel the results in any event, I have but one question:

Why make a pretense, Leftists?  Why should the populace be allowed to vote at all?

As far as you’re concerned, you’d simply prefer to rule by diktat.

Brexit: UK out of the EU

And with that, all little UK Leftists pulled a verbal one of these:

Leftists With PacfiersQuick thoughts on the Brexit.

“Oh my,” UK Leftists bemoaned, “it’s all because of a little immigration and fueled by uneducated, unwashed morons.”

Yes, the UK pundits on media actually said that.  Those who voted for Brexit were uneducated clods, unable to see the finer, positive points of remaining in the EU — like having to continuously relinquish power to Brussels, Belgium.

Brussels, you see, knows infinitely better how to govern and rule the UK than the UK does.

Warning to Hillary Clinton and other Leftists: do you know what this vote was really about?

I suspect you don’t, because your UK punditry (and our American Media Maggots) is weighing in with “the economy” and such.  They couldn’t be more wrong.  It’s something much more fundamental that is aching in the breasts of those who voted Brexit.

It’s about their country.  It’s about their culture.  It’s about their sovereignty and their freedoms surrendered forcefully in absentia.  But why now, after 43 years in the EU?  Easy.  Because of having to watch their country, by external forces, collapse due to Muslim flooding.  Those basic, foundational, good country-men and -women were tired of seeing their country, their land, their jobs, their communities, attacked by hordes of immigrants provided with more deference and consideration than they were — and rendered unrecognizable.

60% OF RECENT UK LAWS STEMMED FROM BRUSSELS.

Leftists have taken a serious blow to the chin and, make no mistake, it’s going to hurt.  The world will feel a bit of pain.  But most — clearly — in the UK have had enough, being forced to pay for their unmotivated and parasitical brothers like Greece and Spain who have sucked enough from the system only to give little if anything back.  Mandated to have their mouths held open and spoon-fed steaming heaps of shite by the ruling elite in London and elsewhere took its toll.  Good people watched their country disintegrating right under their very noses, and watched as Islam began to take over.

Not unlike those same forces at work in the US.

Warning for France and Germany and other UK members, as well as Hillary Clinton: your time is short.

Hillary Clinton HEXITP.S.
Prediction: Obama’s comments about Brexit will, sooner or later, refer to voters for Brexit as “uninformed” and/or “xenophobic.”  Just as the UK “leaders” whose decision to “lead from behind” is having unintended consequences.
