So-called Peoples’ March shoots itself in the foot
For the last few days, the establishment media have been using every possible opportunity to promote the so-called “Peoples’ March” advocating another EU referendum.
Dubious petition to revoke article 50
The build-up to this included a petition to revoke Article 50 so that the UK does not leave the EU. This supposedly had over 4 million online sign-ups, although there has been a great deal of controversy about huge numbers of false email addresses being used.
It would not have mattered if all those who signed were genuine, or indeed if there had been more. As many people have said, it would have to exceed the 17.4 million people who voted to Leave the EU to be taken in any way seriously.
The desperate actions of frantic remainers
The march and the petition simply represent the frantic efforts of those in the Remain camp who have never been prepared to accept the June 2016 UK EU referendum result.
They are exceptionally sore losers, but worse because their actions are a major contribution to making our country divisive.
If only they had accepted the referendum result and made positive steps towards planning for a new more aspirational UK, taking advantage of the opportunities a free from the EU brave new world offered, then we would have a more united and forward-looking nation.
These people, who make up the globalist establishment political elite, have never accepted the referendum result, and have poured money and resources into trying to overturn that decision.
Their number has included a Remainer Prime Minister, who in trying to please their cause, has achieved absolutely nothing constructive in the Brexit process.
How many really attended the anti- Brexit, or rather, anti-people march?
But what about the march last Saturday? Or rather the march against the people? Was it successful? In so many ways it was not. The organisers and supportive media were claiming a million or so supported it.
It is likely the figures have been grossly exaggerated, as have been other gatherings for globalist causes. Soon we will have the official Police estimates on numbers, and then the truth will out.
These Remainers make a great play on the fact that Nigel Farage’s Leave Means Leave march from the North of England to London has not had huge numbers. There are a number of reasons for this:
It is a long walk! It has had little publicity from the media, especially about how to join it, it is run by one section of the Leave campaign, and the numbers are likely to swell when it is in London on 29th March, the same day as another Leave demonstration.
Leave supporters won so see no need to demonstrate
However, and most importantly of all, Leave protest marches, etc., are never going to be that well attended because the majority of Leave supporters do not feel the need for any political action, as they won the referendum.
There will be a volcanic eruption of the British people if Brexit is not delivered.
There is only likely to be a significant protest if the vast British majority do not have Brexit delivered on 29th March, as was promised to them. If that promise is not enacted, there will be a political volcano, and the silent majority of British citizens will rise up and ensure that the promise is kept.
The remainer marchers are predominantly globalist have it all members of the middle class
One point the media do not make about those in the remainer “Peoples’ March, is that those attending predominantly represent the globalist middle and upper middle classes. These people, who persuade themselves they represent the people actually have no idea about how the majority of the population live their lives.
They care about everyone else in the world except their own people, who they look down and despise. They live in their little bubbles of isolation from what is going on in the rest of the country. They have their comfortable lifestyles and of course, do not live in any problem or backward areas. They basically look down on the rest of their countrymen, even more so since they had the temerity to vote against their more superior wishes. The people are not going to put up with this disdainful treatment any longer and will choose new leaders who do not foment a “them and us” society.
Questionable choice of speakers for remain march
In desperate times these people work with very questionable “allies.”
It is already being said that inviting SNP Nicola Sturgeon to speak at the march was a major blunder. To have a separatist who has caused so much division and antagonism in Scotland, to come to spread her anti- United Kingdom message in London would have upset even many remain supporters.
Then, Tom Watson, the Labour Deputy Leader was there, who many see as a political opportunist who wants to become party leader. Very damaging to those who want the Labour party to respect the referendum result. Tom Watson is very much of the intellectual elite who think they know better than the average working man.
So the remain march discredited itself with key speakers being a separatist and an opportunist, and thereby blundered by therefore alienating further the British public from their efforts to stay in the EU.

Events are now unfolding fast, with Cabinet splits and an unpredictable week ahead.
The best action we can take is to hope and pray that we will leave the EU this Friday 29th March 2019.
Leaving then , without a deal and on WTO terms, will end the period of uncertainty we have endured for nearly three years now. We should have left without a deal shortly after the referendum result. If we had done so, it is likely that we would not only have trading arrangements with countries throughout the world but with the EU too. We need to do this now and not delay any longer, much as the ruling establishment would like us too.
She was told all she needed to do was repeal the european communities act 1972, but no she went with her instructions as tolld by brussels, there wa never any need for a WA or to offer money as there article 50 which need never have been signed stated you owe nothing and you pay nothing on leaving. Then we are told wwe are not getting a penny of our 163 billion in eu assets and cash in the bank. Now we also find out but never told how we get all these sign saying paid for by the eu when we only get 2 pence in every pound that we pay in and nothig out of all our VAT they take. How many know that may has signed us up to the eu forces including giving them our protection and the new aircraft carrier. Great all you remoaners diserve whtas coming
Watching the ‘losers’ (Peoples March) parade through London bedecked in EU collours, hats. flags….. I spotted a youngster whose banner said “I am haklf English half French – what is my future?” bemoaning the facat that the UK voted for BREXIT.
Clearly, it has not dawned on this individual that he has a real choice, he can enjoy the best of both worlds, he can live in the UK or France as his fancy takes him. He will have a better future for work as a young person in the UK (EU Youth Unemployment is horrendous) but still enjoy his EU ‘citizens rights’ of not having his French Passport stamped at the border………………. as thoiugh that is such a torturous process and worth surrending national identity and sovereignty.
This youngster is one example of a confused Remainer and I do question how many of those marching truly understand theEU membership brings!
Thank you for this analysis. I personally feel intimidated by this action and find it very hard to understand the mindset. Do people want to be owned by someone else? Don’t these people love their country, it’s history, what’s left of it’s culture and British society?
It is a very worrying affair when this type of devisive action is encouraged. One of the worst things that our politicians have done is to encourage tribalism and conflict. After the Referendum I remember seeing a group of Mancunians and a man at the back was eventually asked his opinion and he said, I will not forget this, “I voted Remain but the decision has been made now let’s get on with it and make a good job of it”.
What are these demonstrators thinking???
I would like to suggest either someone writes an article laying out all the obvious developments that will take place in the next couple of years if we stay in the EU. I just do not feel qualified to do this and I have not seen any such list.
Or we individually post all the clear developments that would happen. Then a comprehensive list can be constructed. Because I just cannot believe that these demonstrators can know what they wish for!!
I will start by saying Pensions, military, fisheries, London’s Financial Centre, our currency, the regionalisation (ie marche), probably an increase in vat and a lowering of the threshold, censorship and the ruin of internet access,
There will be more and they should be elaborated on. This could then be used as a Leaflet/Pamphlet and in a worse case scenario people will see it all happening and be sick!
Anthony thank you for a well-written, much needed article. For me it brought one word to mind. Anti-democratic. The far left which drive this sort of thing hate democracy except that of the kind to be found in poor benighted countries with names that begin with ‘The People’s Democratic Republic of …’
Such countries are indistinguishable from the feudal kingdoms of old or, on a smaller scale, a well-run Mafia gang. Come to think of it with the lot we currently have in Westminster we’re already more than half-way there!
We need to remove them, slowly, painfully yet peacefully. Through the ballot-box.
My beliefs Based on 85 years of irregular politics watching , 50 years of running businesses and the last 60 years watching europe, are.
1 Demonstrations, marches, petitions, leaflets through letter boxes,, .small speeches, only very marginally work.Even O level eng lang, teaches kids to spot manipulation.Its obvious if you think about it. These people love speeching, love the sound of their own voice above all else.That is the motive.( A bit like me making comments )
The thing is, TPTB only have to be somewhere else for an hour or two then they can forget… Even the miners strike didn’t work. That was never going to work. The only one that I know thet worked was the poll tax but that was another story
2.Gerard Batten is correct that the political way is the only sure way..Of course. So . How to influence politics ? The answer is obvious now Politics and propaganda. Aim to convert the politically noisey. eg 20 to 30 year old females.. Get the girls in and males follow.. So sexual attraction works not boring speeches.Why d’you think the Labour party has so many odalisques on the back benches and among activists. Look at Macron, look at Cameron. The Tories really missed a trick with May.They botched it with PC ,. They really should have had Leadstrom. May was always second rater.
3 Propaganda works. By orders of magnitude The TV ( BBC ) is pre eminent. I would still put it at ten times it’snearest rival which is ( was ?) Newspapers, then education, and finally the internet…….When I say this I get drowned out by shrieks and noise.

“Inebriated with the exuberance of his own verbosity, and gifted with an egotistical imagination”

Blimey I just thought it was a plump girl in a painting.
“There will be a volcanic eruption of the British people if Brexit is not delivered”
Anthony I agree with you but I’m beginning to suspect that things are a lot worse than many of us realise. I’ve posted similar elsewhere, but it seems that our government after never believing that we’d have voted to leave the EU, now that its happened have no intention and never have of honouring the leave vote.
What has happened is that Theresa May and her government have set us up for a coup by the EU, they’ve brought our democracy to its knees and all of the main political parties are in a crisis and incapable of providing strong and decisive leadership. A government in name only in other words.
If as has been written elsewhere, there is a constitutional crisis later this week because of the EU withdrawal act clashing with May’s agreement with the EU to postpone Brexit, well, conveniently there are ten thousand foreign troops, mainly from EU countries arriving on our shores at the weekend, supposedly for a military exercise.
As our government becomes ineffectual, the EU will be well placed to fill the power vacuum, they’ll preach altruism and good intent, but in the event of trouble EUROGENDFOR won’t be far behind.
A coup is a coup though and we’d better hope that the SAS are still on our side. This time next week you could all be living in an occupied country, its long been apparent that the EU now regard our country as theirs.
A lot depends on events over the next couple of days.
I wish that the Government would use foreign troops to suppress the British people! It would certainly help the independence fight.
