People ask me “Surely it is too late to reverse Brexit?” Of course we can. Brexit is a political process and the law is merely a servant to the politicians. If political will changed, the law would be made to fit the circumstances with a suitable narrative created for the media and people. We must therefore change political will across all parties. A political backbone has been absent for years and Remain have sometimes gold-plated the strategy that lost them the referendum, with the best of intentions. We operate on three demographics:
We cannot allow the greatest national disaster next to climate change (a global catastrophe) to threaten the next generation’s futures to continue. Our continued resistance is both moral, a fight worth having and certainly not a waste of time, given how much people have sacrificed over the last eight years. Would you like to be able to say that you contributed to the re-establishment of an honest Government that looks after the interests of its citizens to your kids? I would.
Here’s a detailed video that explains our project in full. If you are in a hurry, read our pitch deck.
We had a sneak preview of what Brexit will deliver via the panic buying associated with the Corona outbreak. This was merely an hors d’ouvre for Brexit, which hardens every day, now that our resilience to global shocks is much reduced. We are barely half way towards the damage wreaked by Brexit in 2024 with no sunny uplands in sight, despite proclamations that the benefits would be instant and wide-ranging. The phrase “Make Brexit Work” is a vacuous attempt by Keir Starmer to acquiesce to Nigel Farage and death by 1000 ameliorations is not a recipe for growth, no matter how often Labour politicians repeat it.
Read all about our strategy in our slide deck “Re Building Britain “. This has been adopted by Grassroots for Europe and a number of other large pro EU institutions including the Federal Trust and the originators of the FBPE hashtag.
We will build a full-time professional movement with the aim of breaking the deadlock of “dead cat” Brexit politics with your support:
Please join us with a suggested donation of £10 per month or £100 pa for Silver membership. If you can spare more, please consider higher level donations of £500 or £2000 per annum. Or please just give what you can afford on an ad hoc basis. Everything helps.
Silver : Gives you basic exclusive access to our daily stream of writing and media
Gold : Gain copies of our work in advance of release (books, music, media). Exclusive invites to conference calls and masterclasses
Platinum : 1:1 coaching in the art and discipline of changing minds on Brexit plus all other benefits above
We merely had our “Chamberlain moment” on 31.01.20 plus some time spent in a gulag (fridge). But Brexit is a political process and the law is merely a servant to the politicians.
If you are not sure on this point, just think of ONE occasion when the Government obeyed the rule of law in the last four years or other precedents. Here’s a few where they didn’t:
1. Gina Miller’s Supreme Court Case
2. The Yvette Cooper No Deal amendment
3. Pro-rogation of Parliament
4. The 6 million petition
… and so on. Our Government is beyond the law and thus we must work on political will via the three levels of activity.
If political will changed, the law would be made to fit the circumstances, indeed lawyers would make a great deal of money from this … It would have to look painful and difficult as a piece of “political theatre” but nonetheless all that is needed is a phone call saying “sorry” and a request to fill in the application form. It matters not how long the journey is. What matters is beginning.
It’s never too late to rectify political mistakes. The longer we go on, the more people forget and the more damage will be done, some of it irreversible. We must act to protect our children’s futures.
We will hire a small organisation – A PA, fundraising team, professional web platform and so on. Also allocate some of the funds to support our full time input. Voluntary activity is fine but we need full time professional help to be agile and able to react. I am prepared to set my work aside to do this but I also need to live.
Our difference comes from the fact that we will be more direct than the main movements, professional politicians, outsmarting Nigel Farage et al at their own wicked games. We will also rely more on professionals in their field rather than volunteers. This will give us the edge. At the same time we already collaborate with other pro EU and anti-Brexit groups across the board acting to amplify their efforts. Despite best efforts of grass roots EU organisations, much of our work has suffered from “initiative constipation” – see Brexit Futures for more insights on this.
I am an unusual mix of scientist, business academic and musician. I lead the Rage Against The Brexit Machine project, having written three books and three albums of anti-Brexit protest songs and got one of them to Number One on the Amazon chart. “Brexorcist in Chief” for Mid Kent 4 EU, I gained two black eyes for daring to ask difficult questions of angry leave voters and was arrested by Essex Police for driving a Mini Cooper with the words “B*llocks to Brexit”. I also stood a stuffed cat in the 2019 and 2024 General Elections and did not come last in the ratings !!
For nearly six years I have acted to dispel the illusions of Brexit. At 66 I consider that a fitting epitaph for my life would be the destruction of Brexit populism for the sake of future generations. I wrote a requiem for Brexit on 31 January 2020 and it explains why this matters better than words can manage:
