Getting Caught up With Facebook Ranters!

Posted on April 28, 2017

When the referendum was called as part of David Cameron securing an election victory in 2015, I was not alone in thinking that it could lead to disastrous consequences, with people not really knowing what they were voting for being driven on by jingoistic media hysteria.

However, no matter how reasonable I tried to be in arguing the point that most people didn’t have enough good information to decide on something so critical (including my good self) I found myself attacked by ranters heavily influenced by utter nonsense spouted in the media.

My fear was that we would be driven towards exiting the EU by bar stool politicians whipped up into a frenzy by character assassinations aimed at anyone with moderate or left of centre views. Time and again I was told not to insult the will of the people who voted to Leave the EU but time and again, I have seen morons in action, spouting utter nonsense in what is always an aggressive manner, seemingly acting out a script from ‘The Sun Says’ column.

One of the biggest victims in this right-wing crusade has been Jeremy Corbyn, whom whilst I struggle with as a political orator, does not warrant the abuse and false accusations levelled at him. The most popular one being that he is some sort of terrorist sympathiser.

Wishing to have dialogue with terrorist organisations might not be popular with some, but it does not mean you sympathise with their actions. Dialogue is to try to find a solution to end bloodshed, with the last British Prime Minister to do so being John Major, when he entered in to dialogue with the IRA in the 1990’s.

Britain and Ireland are now safer as a result, an outcome that you would think that any sensible person would be pleased with and is certainly the case with a retired army officer I sometimes walk my dog with. Israel and Palestine struggle with dialogue, so instead they keep killing one another and it appears that is what a disturbingly large per cent of the British public want. No dialogue, eye for an eye combat and a cycle of death and destruction. Nice.

For the record, Jeremy Corbyn is fully vetted, has category A MOD security clearance and is a member of the Privy Council, so either he isn’t a terrorist sympathiser, or MI5 and GCHQ are falling way below the standards expected of them.

However, common sense has all but gone now and as an example, I am publishing this transcript from a Facebook ‘debate’ that I stupidly got involved in yesterday. I have, out of decency and for the sake of anonymity, changed the names of the other participants apart from my friend Richard (Dickie McSpangle).

These are people who were allowed to vote in a referendum which will decide the direction of the United Kingdom. I don’t claim to be an expert on aspects of the EU but please don’t tell me that individuals like these, of whom there are millions, should have been invited to vote on the future prosperity and security of our children and grandchildren.

I was going to put (sic) after the errors in spelling and grammar but I can’t afford to take a week off to do it all.

So, here we go, strap yourselves in as it is a bumpy ride.

Bob Lethaby I haven’t decided where my vote is going just yet but I am intrigued as to what makes Corbyn ‘dangerous and a fuckwit’?
David Irvin
Roger Fuctard: Wanting to trim down our army and doing away with trident for a start. Keeping our boarders open and let in every tom dick and terrorist in to this country whenever they want and pampering to to any terrorist organisation that comes on the scene. That’s what makes him dangerous. 10 years ago he was spouting off that the eu was nothing but a corrupt organisation now he’s a staunch remainer. When he was running for leader he said immigration was now out of control and it needed to be stopped that now he’s saying he wants the borders left open and let even more migrants in. But the best one is that he’s going to put the minimum wage up to 10 guid even tho 100s of small businesses have said that if this happens they will go out of business that’ my friend is what makes him a fuckwit. Anyway we need not worry voters are leaving that moronic party in droves.

Bob Lethaby He wasn’t a staunch Remainer and was heavily criticised by the remain campaign for his luke warm attitude to it, with the centrists in his party angry about his unwillingness to stand shoulder with Cameron in the Remain campaign.

Theresa May was far was far more pro-EU than Corbyn will ever be but she changed her mind, like she likes to do on a daily basis after a walk by a lake.

If the minimum wage goes up, charge rates go up, it happens in any small business, the cost is passed on to the end user. However, I still believe that whilst it is good in theory, a minimum wage merely drives up costs so the people on £10 an hour will still be poor anyway.

With regards to terror, since ‘The War on Terror’ started in 2001, terror has increased 100 fold but is still miniscule. In America you are thousands of times more likely to get killed by a white christian than a Muslim and if you go to London your chances of getting killed by a terrorist are around 25 million to one.

George Orwell got it right when he said we will one day live in a world where fear is power and war is peace.

Roger Fuctard: That’s where the idiot missed a trick and makes him even more of a fuckwit. Every man and his dog knows he was a reluctant remainer if he had come down on the side of brexit the country would have had more respect for him. But all he done was pleased the Blairites to get in that makes him gutless. As for may she had no choice she had to change her mind she is just carrying out the will of the people that is the 17 million that voted leave she’s prime minister that’s her job. Like her or loath her you have to give her credit for that. I feel sorry for her having to pick up the pieces after that moron Cameron ran away. I’m no tory never have been but I’m a staunch brexiteer so I will for the first only time vote tory being a brexiteer I have no choice no good voting ukip it’s a wasted vote. I’m hardly going to vote for labour a party that wants to keep us in Europe am I. You want to defend muslims that’s your affair I have no intention of ever doing that. It’s true what they say not every Muslim is a terrorist but every terrorist is a Muslim.

Bob Lethaby And Blair and Mandelson hate Jeremy Corbyn as he wants to hold tax dodgers to account, these rants are full of contradictions as Corbyn is about as working class supportive as you will get.

Check his expenses claims and tax returns, they are really boring, unlike the husband of Theresa May, a hedge fund manager who works for a company that advises on tax avoidance.

Try reading the facts not The Sun.
