  • The Brexit Scandal - What if Brexit was ultimately not about the “will of the people” at all, but about the interests of a small British elite?
    The Brexit Scandal (2021)
    Director: Tom Costello
    Genre: Documentary
    Country: Germany
    Language: English
    Also Known As: Power, Profit and Populism: The Battle for Hard Brexit
    Release Date: 2021 Germany (Raindance Film Festival)
    Synopsis:
    Brexit was presented as a populist revolution against the elite. But in the years since the referendum, a group of men deep in the heart of the British establishment have been carrying out a coup of a different kind - using Brexit to try and turn Britain into a low-tax, low regulation, high finance utopia.
    This revolution is funded by dark money - cash from unknown sources - which has been flooding into the British political system through mysterious front groups, opaque offshore firms, clandestine digital campaigns and corporate lobbyists in disguise.
    Today dark money and shadowy influence operations continue to push an agenda that is anything but popular, and is deeply undemocratic. In this film, we follow the dark money trails to find out: who are the men who bought Brexit, and what is their vision for Britain’s future?
    Reviews:
    "The ripples of Brexit continue to look more like giant waves. And yet for all the chatter that surrounds our separation from the European Union, do we understand how we ended up with this version of divorce? Power, Profit and Populism: The Battle For Hard Brexit is here with answers - they won’t be the ones you expect, nor will they come from the people you’d expect to give them.
    Presenting this most unpalatable of topics in a bite-sized, digestible format proves a winner for Tom Costello’s documentary; as does the calm, cool narration from Semira Zadeh. They balance out the rising rage you may feel as a group of avaricious larcenists manipulate poverty, patriotism and peace for their own ends.
    Coming from German documentary production firm A&O Buero, the outsider’s perspective is useful here; as are interviews, remarkably, from both sides of a most divided isle. This is a powerful, precise dissection of the methods used post-referendum to secure a particular type of Brexit; it’s also a stark warning against demagoguery and dislike of others who are simply different from us.
    Ultimately, this film offers its viewers the strength to continue the battle for fairness, openness and international co-operation."

      If it's done this way then yes; but it's very dangerous to generalise like that. That only leads to distrust in engagement in public matters and in democracy. Another step towards even greater degradation of the (or any) country. Just because one (or two, three) political party is corrupt doesn't mean _all_ politics is. That's just like saying "I've heard of a physicist who faked their research, ergo all science is fake." Obviously not true and highly damaging notion to spread around.

    Before Brexit, I was naive in thinking British politics wasn’t as corrupt as American politics but that naïveté has been blasted apart. The inner party politics, backstabbings and lies have really cast a shadow for me over British politics. I don’t trust the established political parties at all. They are filled with careerists who only care about which lobbyist group pays the best or which backer can provide the best bribe. The uneducated working class fall for the lies time and time again. That is why I believe being aware of issues is so important but unfortunately, most people just get their information from bbc and other news outlets who are likely just paid out by the same groups.

Meanwhile the UK led the way supporting Ukraine while other European leaders dragged their feet. The UK has troops in Estonia right now as part of a huge NATO mission. The UK signed a defence pack with Sweden and Finland to protect them while they waited for NATO membership. And last winter France was buying electricity from the UK because over half their nuclear reactors were offline and Germany was importing natural gas from the UK, with the undersea UK-EU gas pipelines running at full capacity to help keep Europeans from freezing.

On the Remainer side many economists DID forecast that Brexit would be damaging, and on the Leave side others predicted the UK would be fine. As a leave voter I believe that the leave campaign were far more honest but even then there were claims made that were inaccurate, the infamous £350 million figure on the bus for example, where that was the gross contribution figure rather then the more relevant net figure. As Nigel Farage said the day after the referendum that wasn't a claim he would have made.

      @@karlbassett8485 As I remember it (and I may be wrong), even the bus claim was not really a clear-cut lie. The claim was that we would be able to "take control" of the gross figure and spend it however WE decide to spend it. And that we MIGHT want to spend it all on the NHS. But of course the Brexit Campaign were not a government that would be able to make that decision. So perhaps I could agree it was a simplistic claim, and even underhand in that it could be taken as a promise from people who were unable to make such a promise. But not in mhy opinion an actual lie. UNLIKE the lies on the Remain side, such as the precise figure that was announced that Brexit would cost each person in the UK. Or what about the one where they said Brexit would increase the chances of World War III? I actually don't want to make too much of all these examples, just to say that it is unfair of Remainers to say that the Brexit side lied, with the assumption that Remain were whiter-than-white.

      The idea of inalienable civil rights that cannot be overridden by a simple majority of a first-past-the-post Parliament (which often means representatives of a minority of voters even nvm adult citizens or even all people in the UK) doesn't really appear to be a concept with majority support in the UK.
      American style checks and balances are nowhere to be seen within the British constitutional setup.

Did you know that Britain had to turn it's back on the common wealth after 400 years of protection from European threat first through the empire. Did you know that Britain had to back stab the common wealth countries by reneged on the promise of free trade in return for having suffered slavery, colonialism and still having defended the UK. Pretty sure you will find most ppl know more than yourself about Global politics throughout time. By the way NATO was formed to keep peace, The EEC was to formed to encourage co-operation between corporations in different European countries, it was never meant to be a political union due to the fact most of its members were former high ranking Nazi's. Britain never wanted to join the EU even in the 90s as most of us already knew it's history and knew it should never have been a political union based on its members. Another thing most of the EU members in Brussels are now right wing, the irony of the so called liberals in Western Europe singing it's praises whilst all along it as supported right wing ideology in Eastern Europe to a point of dividing land into former states that supplied SS divisions and whom still promote Nazi ideology today even through their armed forces.

      I believe "Farrige" is how Nigel Farage's surname is actually supposed to be pronounced, or rather how his Father used it before little Nigey thought it sounded too common and chose a pronunciation closer to the name's French (?) roots.
      That's something I've heard, don't know the actual truth.

      There were no promises of a hard or soft Brexit in 2016 , both the leave campaign and the “ Remain “ campaigns were clear,, “ a vote to leave would mean leaving the single market and a complete break with the EU, the PM David Cameron told the country in his Chatham house speach that if the country voted to leave , we would be leaving” no ifs, no buts , no single market “ it wasn’t until after the referendum and the following election where all the parties( Conservative, Labour and Lib Dem’s ) promised to honour the vote until elected , then did all they could to stop Brexit. We were lied to by Remainers for 3 years.
      The next election was won by a landslide by the only party who promised to deliver Brexit .
      You can’t rewrite history with slick videos full of lies , just like remainders couldn’t win the referendum with lies.
      How is that EU armed forces the leader of the Remain campaign( Nick Clegg) told the country “ was a Dangerous fantasy dreamt up by Nigel Farage to scare voters into voting leave “ going ?
      Or the half million jobs remain said would be lost just by voting to leave? Unemployment fell after Brexit , it rise in the EU , then there was the 30% house price collapse that George Osborne told us all would follow a vote to leave( house prices are 30%!up since Brexit !!!! And what happened to that promised £50 billion emergency budget that would be levied the day after a leave vote ?
      Without the lies the winning margin for leave would have been far greater , project fear failed, you have learnt nothing . The lies keep coming because you have nothing else to offer .
