Re: Same ole Same ole
HiI object, I really do, to being called a Right Winger because I voted to leave.
This is simply not correct.
Farage has a foreign wife, so does Fender.
My pretendies are Polish.
I employed Muslim Staff who I hold in the highest regard.
We are not Xenophobes, we are real people.

As we voted leave, we are "automatically" Xenophobes / racists / anti johnny foreigner / little Englanders.....etc
We know we're not and that's good enough for me.
It's just some of the usual nauseating drivel they like to come out with.

I remember on one of the many programmes at the time of the Referendum an American journalist was invited to comment, and he said that the Remain side do not seem to understand one of the main rules of political campaigning - you can insult the opposition parties and you can insult their policies, but you can't insult the electorate, as that will go against you
If you do criticise or insult people for their opinions, all that will happen is that they will lie or give evasive answers to the polls, leading to an underestimation
But when people can vote freely in the privacy of the polling booth the truth is revealed, and it can take people by surprise - as shown in the result of the EU Referendum
A study of the voting pattern of the EU Referendum shows that most of the support for Leave came from traditional Labour supporting areas, most of whom would be shocked and insulted to be called fascist, far right, and so on

It was concluded that the low level of education made this group easily manipulatable by populistic political parties.
The coresponding group in the UK seems to have been played by types as johnson and farage. The same trend is distinguishable on this forum.
