Next month The World’s
Most Dangerous Community Organizer is set to visit London in a move that is certain to
infuriate British lawmakers. Apparently,
he is seeking to “fundamentally transform” Great Britain as he lobbies the UK
against leaving the European Union.
June 23rd is the date
for a referendum on the country’s membership in the European Union. In early 2015 the chances of BREXIT—Britain
departing from the European Union—seemed remote. Today, largely because of
Europe’s migration crisis and the interminable euro mess, the polls have
narrowed. Some recent surveys even find a majority of Britons wanting to leave.
Without getting into
the weeds, BREXIT is an abbreviation of “British exit”. It refers to the in-out referendum to
withdraw from the EU. Great Britain has
been actively renegotiating its relationship with Europe limiting the rights of
immigrants to claim benefits and seize sovereignty from Brussels and return it
to London.
Prime
Minister David Cameron is channeling the infamous Neville Chamberlain in trying to appease Brussels. The June referendum will be the first time in
40 years that British voters have had the opportunity to leave the European
partnership.
“Why
should President Obama tell the UK whether we should be part of a European superstate
or a sovereign nation? He should keep
his comments, his views, to himself,” said Peter Bone, a Conservative UK Member
of Parliament and supporter of BREXIT.
Ephraim
Hardcastle, writing for The
Daily Mail, offered this delicious tidbit:
The Queen refuses to come to London to meet President Barack Obama next month. Instead, accompanied by his security circus, he’ll trundle to Windsor in his bomb-proof, seven-ton limo for lunch.He’s due to stand alongside the PM and urge Britain to stay in the EU. “But he’d be well-advised not to give a pro-EU sermon over lunch after the row about the Queen supporting BREXIT,” says my source.
Why would the Queen put ol’
Jug Ears firmly in his place? Could it
be because he “cheaped out” when he gave her an iPod pre-loaded with photos of him and his speech at the 2004 Democratic National Convention and his 2009 Inaugural Speech? Oh, and when Hardcastle refers to the
president’s “security circus” don’t you just know he’s recalling the laughable
moment “The Beast” limousine made the clang heard ‘round the world during a
visit to Ireland?
NOTE: I think we all know where the
Queen’s loyalties lie, but Buckingham Palace is in a standoff with The Sun,
one of Britain's most powerful newspapers, over a front-page article it
published recently headlined, "Queen backs Brexit."
