The day has come: I agree with Tony Blair

Tony may not be the worst prime minister we’ve ever had: one or two others, Dave among them, are firmly in contention for that honour.

But he is easily the most disgusting, a feature that’s blown up to grotesque proportions by his talent for self-publicity.

If a revolting individual wanted to appear half-decent, he’d be well-advised to keep a low profile and his mouth shut. But my friend Tony isn’t like that, is he?

He wants to put himself in the public eye, and what the public eye can’t fail to see is duplicity, complete absence of any discernible principles, a mediocre mind, the moral sense of a wild animal, egoism on a stratospheric scale and the integrity of a card sharp.

Hence I never thought I’d agree with Tony on anything – which only goes to show that one can’t foresee one’s reactions on the basis of experience. For at last Tony has said something that made me jump up, punch the air and shout “Yes!!!”

What provoked such uncharacteristic enthusiasm was Tony’s pronouncement that the issue of Britain’s exit from the EU is so involved that voters can’t be trusted to make the “sensible choice”. Hence there should be no referendum, especially since support for “the sensible choice” seems to be rather understated.

I couldn’t agree more. Except for one minor detail: his definition of the sensible choice.

Tony thinks there should be no referendum because the public may just vote to get out. I think there should be no referendum because the public may just vote to stay in.

The choice to get out isn’t merely sensible – it’s the only moral option. Hence I’d support Brexit even if the economic case against it were as clear-cut as it now is in favour of it.

Staying in the EU would exacerbate the original treasonous act of entering it: the constitution that ignoramuses say we haven’t got indisputably vests Britain’s sovereignty in the Queen and her parliament.

Transferring sovereignty to a foreign body is therefore an act of treason and constitutional vandalism.

That alone should be sufficient for any sensible individual to pray that one day we’ll be governed by intelligent, moral and responsible men who on their authority will restore our ancient constitution to its past grandeur by taking the country out of this foul multinational obscenity.

Edmund Burke, one of the subtlest constitutional minds England has been blessed with, once explained that our MPs should act according to the people’s interests, not necessarily their wishes.

That at a stroke removed any constitutional justification for any plebiscite – regardless of how we feel about its results, past or future.

In the past, specifically in 1975, the EU, or the EEC as it then was, was still in an inchoate stage. Its power to swing and swindle public opinion in member countries was still limited, as were its resources.

However, that sinister organisation ably assisted by a handful of homespun eurocrats, managed to trick the Brits into voting the right way, which was really the wrong way.

Now imagine what any future referendum will look like, what with the EU now able to throw the weight of billions of pounds behind the vote to keep Britain in.

Think of the spivocrats in all our parliamentary parties, with the minor exception of Ukip, who’ll collaborate with the fervour that’ll make Quisling look like a resistance fighter.

Think of the massive mendacious campaign threatening every manner of calamity should Britain regain her sovereignty.

Think, I am sad to say, of our gullible public whom two generations of moron-spewing ‘education’ made defenceless in the face of Goebbels-style propaganda. Do you believe they can be trusted to make the sensible choice of getting out and shaking the toxic EU dust off their feet?

I don’t. That’s why I’m opposed to the referendum not only on constitutional principle but also because we – the people still capable of making the sensible choice – are likely to lose the vote.

There are only two reasons to support the Brexit plebiscite. The rational one is that at least that way there’s a glimmer of hope – as there is none that we’ll ever have a government made up of anyone other than spivs like Tony, Dave or Ed, immoral nonentities who’ll always play lickspittle to the EU.

The emotional reason to support the referendum is simply that Blair is opposed to it. That, I am afraid, is all.

 

P.S. Between Nicola Sturgeon and Alex Salmond, don’t you think there’s something fishy about Scottish politicians?
