Traitor Blair?
Tony Blair has been accused of “unacceptable” behaviour after it emerged he has been briefing Emmanuel Macron on how to force Britain to stay in the EU.
The former Labour prime minister believes that if the EU stands its ground over the Brexit deal, Parliament will cave in and accept a customs union - which would keep Britain yoked to Brussels - or a second referendum that could cancel Brexit altogether.
Sources in Paris confirmed to The Telegraph that Mr Blair had been speaking to the French President about Brexit.
He is reported to have told Mr Macron to “hold firm” and wait for events to play out in London that end in Britain staying in the EU.
Peter Bone, a Eurosceptic Conservative MP, said: “It is totally unacceptable for a former prime minister to go around the heads of European countries and undermine the Government’s position. I’m not sure we could find another time in modern history when this has happened.

exactly Bazile, and it's a worrying trend, almost National Socialist in nature. What should happen is that they duly read (listen) to alternative views and then put up well-reasoned arguments. What are the Brexiters or anybody on the Right wing afraid of?
I'm in favour of democracy and free speech by the way, my view as to Brexit being that something is cooking tonight and it was always going to be 11.59, just as in any major negotiation, why concede points and seek the bond (the agreement) until you have to do so - it's a basic prerequisite of any negotiation. And then, tomorrow morning, we'll all be friends with Europe.
The frightening news for me is that 900 billion sterling of assets has already exited the UK through the banks (moved not a promised exodus), Dublin being the main beneficiary.

I think that you may discover, if you care to look, that the Brexiteers are not afraid of free speech. Indeed we have had to endure the stifling of our own views by the "main stream media" since even before the referendum was taken and increasingly so since the votes were counted. What we abhor are the secret, private, "negotiations that are engineered by the Remainiacs. Blair being just one such player. Now we learn that the treasonous May has flown to Strasburg this evening. Just hours before the vote that takes place tomorrow(why you may well ask) and no doubt plotting against delivering a real Brexit with her and Bliar's masters in the EUSSR. With free speech comes the freedom to listen...…...we have been denied that basic right for decades by the plotters in the EUSSR.
"Also it's a known fact that along with Gina Miller and many others, Blair is on the payroll of George Soros, who is hell-bent on trying to stop Brexit."

A true least Arron Banks is all above board and squeaky clean, no dodgy deals with Lesotho or Russia. And Michael Gove is asking people to accept May's deal.
Brexit is no more than a vanity project now, for people who want to make a name for themselves at the expense of everybody else. There is no honour left in that campaign, and throwing Soros' name around as the bad guy behind every bush and under every bed is pantomime.

Meanwhile the lies continue, and emanate from the EUSSR as usual. Millions of EU slaves believe this guff. Haha.
