As Churchill said, the biggest argument against democracy is a 5 minute conversation with the average voter.
Jeez. I came to the comments to say exactly this and it's already the top comments 😅😂
BRILLIANT!!!!!!!
Did he say? A quote that is often rolled out and attributed to him with no real proof he did. Its also widely misunderstood. Its a criticism of the state not the voter.
two minutes is more than enough
@@captainbuggernut9565 Whoever said it, it was true.
These people have deprived me and the young of a better life
As an older person I was looking to retire and move to the EU and escape this island of xenophobes. I doubt I will see the UK re-join before I am gone.
@@stephengraham1153 I know it’s depressing but try and think positive. Scotland 🏴 will leave England behind and become an equal country within the EU. You’d be very welcome there.

Brexit is a total disaster it sukcs to be British right now such ashame oh well.
Greetings from the Netherlands🇳🇱
@@stephengraham1153 I do feel sorry for you.
I'm a Brit living in NL & in my 60s. Thinking about returning to Britain after living around the world for 40yrs.
Home & family calls!
However I'm very very bothered.
Britain is a sinking ship.
The level of racism & ignorance among people of my generation is terrifying.
Nothing is simple but the problem almost certainly lies with those like Farage & your totally toxic media.
@@DidierWierdsma6335 Right now I'm more than happy to be living in your country 🇳🇱 because I'm extremely ashamed of my own.
I don't know why the UKIP supporter thinks that Brexit didn't deliver.
It delivered the blow to the economy that they were told that it would and that they chose to deny and brand "project fear".
so two years of lockdowns which nobody voted for had nothing to do with it?
We havnt got it if you take a look ,
Don't take any sort of people in that come from counties that don't have family planing and free birth control.
Brexit hasn’t been implemented as it was supposed to so you can’t blame it on the WORLDWIDE high inflation etc
Brexit has not been allowed to work in spite of not having to pay EU £ billions each year, because of our undemocratic government and politicians on all sides are trying to wreak it! It’s clear Sunak is a globalist, and it’s a doomed policy.
So people were ignorant about how EU really works, voted personally for Brexit for the sake of Brexit, not considering all hard economic and political consequences, and now blame everything on EU. Sorry, my sense of logic is doing loops here.
Relax, you are perfectly sane. It is the UK voters and electorate that is misinformed and opinionated but has no clue what they are talking about. Democracy at its finest, i guess.
If these people are average British, I believe all hope is lost.
They are just in God's waiting room!
Nah, they are below average. Remember that 50% of the population has an IQ under 100, which is the average. These are the same 50% who vote Tory, UKIP and trust fools like Farage.
nope, not average, Clacton is just one of the most depressing places in the country.
The levels of ignorance is frightening
And these people have vote - even if one of them was proud that he didn't! 🙄
@James Ross all the information was in the pamphlet posted to homes but they chose to believe Fartage and BloJo 😂🤦♂️
The levels of ignorance ARE frightening 😂.
@@andrewrobinson2565 level = is, levels = are. simples.
So is the level of racism
People angry that they got what they voted for
We didn't, thats the problem, our political class is rotten & corrupt & doesn't serve us anymore.
Voters should be angry with themselves.
They voted for well known cheater and liair.
The best was that woman loved the man who cheated his wife and left her with children.
You elect conman you get conned, it is that simple.
Well they didn't really. The problem was that everyone listened to Farage (e.g. Immigration). However, Farage had no control as to how Brexit was implemented and how immigration would be post-Brexit.
@@Keats-pk6nu Farage wanted Dublin Agreement to go. He wanted WHO and so on and on.
No much diffrence. Boris implemented what he wanted to be in power.
@@jerryorange6983 but Farage wanted to leave the ECHR, and that is more beneficial for dealing with the migration problem. If you actually look at the Dublin Agreement, Britain actually gained more migrants through it than it returned; as the Home Office noted in February 2019: "There were 1,215 transfers into the UK under the Dublin Regulation. The majority (946) of these transfers came from Greece. There were just 209 transfers out of the UK under the Dublin Regulation. A quarter of these (51) were transfers to France."
They need to get over it. They won.
But Britain lost
Brexit has basically delivered exactly what we told you it would
no. the tories delivered us what they thought we should have, and that is a partial brexit.
Have you ever think about the intention behind Brexit?
Cui bono?
Brexit as worked exactly as intended.
England can now maintain is tax havens for the rich.
That was the only political intention behind leaving the rules of the common market.
The scrap of EU rules is to guarantee a no easy return path.
The day the EU proposed ending tax havens the English politicians started talking about leaving the EU.
Time Line:
2013 David Cameron asks the EU not to include UK offshore trusts in the EU wide crackdown on tax avoidance , the EU says “NO”.
2014 October Arron Banks donates £1 million to UKIP.
2015 October Vote Leave “let's take back control” formed.
2016 February David Cameron announces a referendum to leave the EU.

2020 31 January 23:00 GMT UK leaves the EU.

What the man in the Green jacket who voted Brexit doesn't seem to understand is that had we stayed in the EU then the UK would have been able to automatically send back illegal immigrants in boats back to France due to a cooperation agreement.Again proving how ill informed most Brexit voters were.
not just brexiters are ill informed, first, refugees are NOT illegal, nor immigrants, this is why they are called "refugees" or asylum seekers and not immigrants, immigrants are people who arrive in the UK with a work visa granted by the Home Office, and no, you could not return them to France🤡under the Dublin Agreement the UK could return refugees who were registered in an EU country before they got to the UK, to that very EU country, if they were registered nowhere, the UK had to accept their asylum claim, just like they UK has to accept them now, and this is international law, and has nothing to do with brexit
Yes I find it amazing how little not being party to the Dublin III Regulations anymore is effecting the current situation
@@politicaled7247 the Dublin Convention was mainly designed to stop benefit fraud, some refugees would register at their arrival in Greece or Italy and then they would travel to Germany and France and claim benefits again, the UK was not concerned so much as not so many refugees would travel to the UK anyway, the UK was more difficult to reach, before the small boat business picked up under the Tories, due to the closure of the legal routes
He voted to get rid of the Dublin Agreement, which allowed refugees to be spread out across the EU including the UK. So now, the EU spread out their refugees across EU countries. And Britain deals with all the migrants coming to the UK on its own. Just like he wanted.
@@RainerMichelle Mainly? No partially.
It was also required to share the load of asylum applicants across the EU.
“Europe has it in for us” feel sorry for that old guy to be hoodwinked so much. Europe could care less about the UK. It’s more cohesive since the UK left and any self inflicted damage to the UK due to their decision is their own fault. People were warned.
They could NOT care less
People don't realise how little the EU nations now care about domestic UK politics. You wanted out, you got what you wanted and you have to live with the consequences🙄
@ant318 noone was "hoodwinked"- that happened in 1974 with the common market. The brexit was debated for months from every angle.
Everyone knew what was entailed.
In 1974, we were promised a trading bloc- we got a political union with no referendum on it. John major rubber stamped it in 1994. Maastrict.
@@DAVJULART perfect. Uk will join the 169 other countries outside the EU now in recession and eurozone crisis.
@@jonsimmons4150 everyone knew what was entailed? Why does it dominate your news and economy today still? Get real
these people voted brexit, and now they complain about it.
That last couple that think it's 'too easy to live on the dole' should try it for a month or two. Gaslit Jokers the pair of them.
Wait until they hear that there have been 700k (legal) immigrants arriving in the UK as opposed to 75k (legal) asylum seekers. There is no such thing as an illegal asylum seeker no matter what the tories tell you.
They are "irregular" but still legal.
There you go Right wing press, look what you’ve done. You allowed falsehoods to be told has truths.
Yeah, but there's free undred an fifty milliun a week goin to the NHS nah, bruv, innit!!!!

Why won’t the EU do what we want?!
Morons.
Such a shock that if you leave the EU you become a third country. Who knew?
I'm sure europe can find Clacton on a map
They get what they get
Everyone warned them what stupidity they were voting for
Agreed, just a shame they dragged everyone down with them.
But if they only read the Sun, Mail, or Express - there was no 'everyone' to warn them.
Oh, come on be fair.
People didn't really know what they were voting for because the government really didn't know what they were offering them. 🤭
@@Dylanesque this is not true, the ERG and their friends knew exactly what they wanted, but they knew if they told the truth nobody would vote to leave, but luckily they own all the media in the UK, and they lied to the British people and made them vote to leave the EU
Yup. They even called it Project Fear. Look at them now
I feel sorry for the people in this town, but honestly, judging by the half baked arguments expressed by most of them, I can't help thinking it's the schools that have let them down. The only people remotely showing any intelligence are the ones that are clearly not from around there.
Donald Trump loves poorly educated people.
Thats because its cherry picked to suit a narrative. Like bbc tv debates are. Cherry picked public.
cherry picked interviews. its classic left wing- pro eu remoaner tactics, they do it as matter of course
@@jonsimmons4150 Wrong. 70% voted for Brexit so this is an accurate representation of both the intelligence level and the underlying racism of this population. Of course they voted because they thought it would stop the boats, what did you think? They were voting because they understood the complexity of European economics and trading agreements?

Representative democracy is far from perfect, but Brexit gave us a taste of populism in action. 'My ignorance is as good as your knowledge - so give me what you promised!'
Rightwing populism generally leads people down that route.
Yep, I also blame the Tories - especially Cameron - for instigating the ridiculously vague referendum, whereby Joe Public was only offered a binary Stay/Leave vote. Then the Daily Mail, Telegraph and Sun etc, seeing an opportunity to increase their circulation through outrage and fear-mongering, jumped on the ‘Will of the People’ bandwagon…
There is no such thing as a unified Will of the People, there is only a loose yet common consent that things in Britain haven’t really been any good for a while now. By using Brexit as a vote of no confidence in British politicians, these gullible nitwits here now have to reap what they have sown.
Populism is democracy in action. But you liberals don't want real democracy, where the majority demands and the government obeys. You want a dictatorship of the bourgeoisie under the cloak of "representation".
They got what they voted for
Person: “They’re all the same”
Also Person: Continues to vote Conservative every election so that everything stays the same.
Thick as mince springs to mind!!
Maybe, but statistically half the population;ation are of below average intelligence, yet they all have a say in who in governs them and have access to the same information as the half of the population that are of above average intelligence.
And the EU.... what did these people expect when they voted to leave the EU.
Unicorns and sunlit uplands.
They were warned. But they didnt want to listen.

The levels of ignorance exhibited by these, obviously undereducated, English is a direct example of why Scotland will vote for Independence and Ireland will vote for Reunification.
England's educational system must be truly dire. Logic appears to have been entirely absent from their curriculae.
True that what a bunch of misinformed biggots
There was a Scotsman interviewed as well who showed no more understanding than the others 🙄
@@simonjohn9525 And where was the man you identify as Scottish? In England is the answer.
@@lindabastable3021 Yes, but you referred to the English 🙂
I am English, and my point of view is that the problem with the country is the spatial inequality. The ignorance you are talking about is spurred by a lack of opportunities in many parts of England (such as Clacton shown here) relative to the wealthier parts, combined with populist politicians who are very good at blowing up immigration and the EU as the cause of the people's problems, as well as overinflating the idea of English exceptionalism. I do not condone the views of the speakers in this video. I am passionate about the EU and feel it is a tragedy for me and many other UK citizens who have lost their part in the EU, especially as I was a couple of months from my 18th birthday on referendum day and so could not vote.
However, in order to address the problem, we should try to see it from the perspective of people in Clacton (or places in England that are doing much worse than Clacton). In the status quo, they are struggling to make ends meet, they see their town declining year by year (closing shops, crime, litter, etc), services being cut, housing mouldy and falling down, lack of access to healthcare in a country that prides itself on its health service, a lack of opportunities for people who don't go to university. They also might live in areas where there are not many people from outside the UK, and if there are, not a lot of integration, so they don't have the chance to see the other perspectives (e.g. the obvious point that it is a lot more of the world than Ukraine where people are fearful for their lives, that it isn't a majority who are economic migrants, and that they don't get housing "for free").
Then, UKIP and other populists come along, targeting these areas, and can play into their insecurities by saying the EU is responsible for their situation. To top it off, they can play the card that because Remain was the side of the government at the time of the referendum, casting a remain vote would mean nothing would change (obviously leaving out that leaving the EU could actually make things change for the worse). These narratives fuel the opinions that you see in the video. Coupled with the fact that at the time of the referendum (idiotic timing from the government at the time if they wanted to win), Brexit populists could show pictures of lines of migrants wrongly claiming they were all coming to the UK to make their lives harder to afford, and that they were not fleeing unimaginable circumstances.
Scotland and Ireland have forgotten, deprived places too, but rather than the EU be framed as the problem, it's Westminster, and therefore I agree with you that, whilst Westminster will throw every barrier first, the UK's breakup will always be in question.
However, I will also say that the Brexit majority was very slim (51.9%), and that lowering the referendum to 16 (like they did for the Scotland independence referendum, and which was seriously suggested) would have resulted in a win for Remain, and that the tilt towards Brexit can be said to be down to votes cast from misinformation. Perhaps a better, more equal education system would help but then I think it's also down to much more than education too.
"they get free housing, free health, free everything" - how wrong can he be??????
The British gammon on parade. The frightening thing is that they have a vote. The idea that the streets of Clackton used to be spotless is hilarious.
The low level of socio-economic awareness from most in this vox-pop is very disappointing, and illustrates why we have been denied EU membership and have the government we have.
"Every nation gets the government it deserves" (Joseph de Maistre) So sad.

Prior to Brexit the EU Dublin Regulation allowed the return of asylum seekers to the country of first EU entry (eg France). By voting Brexit xenophobes shot themselves in the foot since asylum seekers could no longer be returned to France....unsurprisingly the penny hasn't dropped!
But the UKs new immigration bill is what the EU will eventually copy in a attempt to stop people crossing across the Mediterranean and put criminal gangs out of business
The irony that UK's current migrant problem is entirely caused by leaving the EU is lost on so many. Taking back control of borders means just that and it ain't pretty!
Blox . Uk gov dont want to take action thats why, australia turns em back, the leftie whinged a bit, but who cares.
Ended up explaining this to someone recently. I think the penny dropped
Got farkall to do with it- the gov. Dont want to deport anyone- since morecombe bay they shoulda cracked down, but no.
That guy who said 'Patel rejects migrants'. 😂 Patel has overseen the biggest rise in net migration ever.
by saying"Patel rejects migrants" you show that you have been brainwashed by the Tories and the Tory owned media, you have no idea what you are talking about, net immigration has risen because EU citizens have left, and to replace them, more immigrants from Africa and Asia are needed to do the work, but these people are immigrants who arrive with a work visa granted by the Home Office, and of course their number is higher, because they are registered, while the EU citizens who have left now, had free movement, and the UK authorities never registered them, the people "Patel rejects" are refugees or asylum seekers, they were used as a false! pretext to make people vote to leave the EU, and to keep this lie going, the Tories continue to punish these refugees

It's mind boggling. Not a single person is pointing out another essential part of realities: The fact that crops and veg rot in the fields. Why? The Brits aren'willing to do the hard work for so little payment. Those immigrants would do the job if they were allowed to.
The places with highest unemployment rate are far from where the workers are needed. So they'd either have to move there, to work a few months of the year for a few quids an hour, or live in shacks like the migrants did. But brexit didn't hurt the migrant workers, they found job elsewhere within EU.

And as an EU farmer I can tell you that as and when checks are bought in for products entering the UK, a lot will stop that export as there is a plentiful market to be had here on the continent. Put briefly the UK food supply chain is in a lot of trouble. The reason the UK has not yet implemented these checks is because they know it would bring serious shortages and civil unrest as the supply chain collapses.
Where on earth did you come across this selection of individuals in Clacton surely they was all on day release from the local asylum god help us
Well, no surprise there. After Brexit actually happened, I fully expected most Brexit supporters to keep blaming the EU for every problem that would inevitably befall the UK after this moronic decision, possibly right until the end of their lives. I guess the UK can only ever hope to develop a normal relationship with the EU again once all these people simply have passed away. Pity for the young generation that got shafted and their future ruined.
Daily Mail, Express, The Sun and Telegraph have done a good job on those people.

Brexit was merely an extension of austerity. Best way to think of it being political austerity. Looking at Europe and thinking “if we have a free trade deal, for free, this will be the same as EU membership, but without all that pesky co- operation with others…which is bad”.

A group of people are share a house. All of them have a key of the front door. And rules are made together.
One day, of of them wants to leave. He thinks he is better of alone in it own household.
So, he moved.
And now he is complaining, he does not have a key of the front door anymore.
And discovers that a household on his own is not a profitable as he thought.
To be blunt it's a grim place full of grim people.
my god this is just depressing on so many levels
Gaslit to the heavens. Being robbed blind by the rich and casually blaming people who they are much closer to
the guy suggesting we need to leave EU by demleting all EU laws obviously doesn't know, or doesn't care that HIS rights would be reduced!!!!! These people should never have been given a vote in the referendum!
If I remember correctly, UK needs to change tens of thousands of EU laws and regulations. At the pace the parliament is working, It would take 50-100 years....if they are really fast. :)
Brexit did a lot, it tanked the British economy. Soon England will be one of the poorest countries in Western Europe.
No, we are still paying the EU as though Brexit never happened?
We are still under all its laws/rules over 4,000 of them?
We still have no rights to our own fishing water.
The EU says who can fish our waters and how much fish we can take.
With Tuna only EU fishermen can catch them?
Not even our rod and line sports fisherman can catch them.
So where is the sovereignty in that?
WE HAVE NOT YET HAD BREXIT YET NOT EVEN CLOSE.
You pay for contracts, that yet not had ended and therefore the UK still benefits from. And never the less, you pay for the pensions of Farage and his likes for the time they were in the EU parliament and had done nothing for UK.
This are also laws that protect your live. Do you really want them all disappear?
You have no rights in your waters, because the fishermen sold them to foreign countries, nothing to do with EU.
It's not that you haven't Brexit yet, it's just that Brexit didn't solved your problems, cause they haven't anything to do with EU.
Makes me weep listening to this....the ignorance about...well, just about everything 😭 (apart from the Scottish gentleman ...Scottish people seem so much better informed than English people about politics/current affairs - better education, better journalists!!)
scottish are being subsidised.
Some people really shouldn’t be allowed to vote.
Anyone who says “the country is full” should have it taken away.
"England's full up"
Scenes of hardly anyone about. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Just to mention it: my local Aldi pays meanwhile 16 Euros per hour for unskilled work. I am living in Germany.
Before brexit, people could have come over here for work. With brexit, FOM ended, and brexiteers were proud of that.
Now you are on your own. Good luck with that.
in Australia (not in the EU) picking veg is paid 16.30 gbp ph +8% superannuation MINIMUM!
working the till in ALDI in australia pays 18.30 euros ph +8% superannuation MINIMUM! as well, you cannot come in on a fruit and veg picking visa, then swap to car mechanic, or builder when onsite.
- and Australia vets its migrants..
-and australia deports any crims in the lot.
-and Australia isnt in the EU.
I'm getting a distinct "we despise immigrants, but simultaneously just can't believe that Brexit didn't work" vibe
These people are so ill informed and a little knowledge is a dangerous thing.
Listening to this lot goes a long to explaining why we are in such a mess.

Have you ever think about the intention behind Brexit?
Cui bono?
Brexit as worked exactly as intended.
England can now maintain is tax havens for the rich.
That was the only political intention behind leaving the rules of the common market.
The scrap of EU rules is to guarantee a no easy return path.
The day the EU proposed ending tax havens the English politicians started talking about leaving the EU.
Time Line:
2013 David Cameron asks the EU not to include UK offshore trusts in the EU wide crackdown on tax avoidance , the EU says “NO”.
2014 October Arron Banks donates £1 million to UKIP.
2015 October Vote Leave “let's take back control” formed.
2016 February David Cameron announces a referendum to leave the EU.
2019 EU anti-tax avoidance proposals published.
2019 EU anti-tax avoidance laws accepted by the EU.
2020 31 January 23:00 GMT UK leaves the EU.
2020 01 February EU parliament makes ATAD (anti-tax avoidance directive) EU law, which members have to introduce to national law.
Brexit is complete, the single item on the agenda as been attained.
The rich that payed for the politicians bus have their sovereignty now.

Their level of awareness.
It's easy to blame "all politicians" but it's the Conservatives who have been in power for 13 years. Who did these people vote for? Unemployment is less than 4% so where are street cleaners to come from when you don't want immigrants to come in? And even if you have people willing to clean the streets there is no money after huge local government cuts by the Conservatives. These people just can't seem to add 2 and 2 and fully deserve what they get.
So sad, I even hear this kinda talk from my old parents, everything broken yet they still voted Tory and still like Boris. Its madness.

@@johnharding6394 the problem is if we started a trade war / block / change regulations who are we going to sell fish too? Many of the eu laws we passed in the eu and even if we didn’t what law do you want removed.
@@amigang So just give in to the bully?
But if you do thy will want more every time?
Also e buy more from the EU than we sell to the EU and if we band all EU cars and vans Germany and France car and van industry's would collapse anyway Japanese are much better
@@johnharding6394 Yes but if we want to be a global power we got be competitive in either American Market, EU Market or Asian Markets. Now both American/Asian market either have low wage, no regulation (ie farming/GM crops/steroid meat etc) or where most of our products already meet the higher standard, there the EU market that we were apart of, its our closet market and we even formed alot of the rules up to Brexit. So to me a custom union is likly the best place to be now. (but then where a rule taker, and we might of well be in it.) Now if we dont want to be a global power, sure we can close boarders make our own rules and market, but we will not be a rich country or a world player anymore. (likly going to happen anyway, as india recently over took us to be 5th richist country and soon France)
@@amigang Your in depth understanding is amassing?

Keep taking the tablets they may well off set the vaccine
It's interesting how those interviewed keep repeating the memes put out by Tory central office.
There were virtually zero small boats before Brexit. There was also a right to return them when in the EU.
Most of these ppl still see UK problems ‘ coming from abroad rather than from their own country.
The ignorance on display with the majority of these people is staggering.
Brexit brought Britons ABSOLUTE FREEDOM to launder their money in offshore tax heavens, those Britons who have money to launder, of course. The rest, about 99,999999999% of citizens, regained workplaces occupied till Brexit by immigrants form Central Europe. So why so many complaints?
I would assume, they would be proud now, having brexited. Braverman recommended yesterday, that more british food pickers are needed. The workers in the car sector, being redundant, can become fruit pickers now.
I am sure, they will be happy, working on the fields in sunlit uplands.
@@elipa3 Just seen a report about a farmer who in the last three years did not get a single british person from the job office despite struggling to get the crops from the fields. He was begging for workers.
"We're full of people" - by only accepting a fraction of the number of refugees other European countries accept, let alone the countries around those that people are fleeing due to wars.
Besides, the UK lacks workers everywhere and those refugees could help substantially to grow the economy if only they were allowed to do so. On average, the add more to the coffers than average Britons do since they pay more for access to the NHS, use the NHS lees since most of them are relatively young and because their country of origin already paid for their education.

france 118 ppl per km2.. germany 233 ppl per km2.. uk 281.. *England 434 per km2*
-who should take more?
@@jonsimmons4150 Maths is not your forte, is it? Lebanon 667 ppl per km2 but they took in 1.5 million refugees. Germany 223 ppl per km2 and they took in 3.08 million, UK 281 and according to UNHCR statistics, as of November 2022 there were 231,597 refugees, 127,421 pending asylum cases and 5,483 stateless persons in the UK. That's not just laughable, that's a shame. Especially considering that the UK is one of the biggest arms dealers and thereby directly profits from the wars that those refugees are fleeing - but then wants to shut the door when they come knocking.
That's how arms dealers work. Sending missery upon other people and profiting from it. Now the situation has turned.
They “don’t do politics any more” .. after voting for Brexit and UKIP. Scared to look in the mirror and take some responsibility
This is the very reason why I no longer speak to my family. It's exactly the same ignorant and vacuous rhetoric, where all their 'facts' are based solely on their emotions.
I'm sure they're devastated
Can we deport clacton?
Nor can you deport people there. That would be a crime against humanity. I do think a wall around it is a good idea.
03:27 - “Europe has got it in for us”… Brexit regret is often supplanted by this woe is me attitude. Heaven forbid these little Britain types actually own up to their foolish shortsightedness. Nope, just keep playing the blame game.
Well,Boris has his priorities right.He may not know the price of milk,but he knows the price of champagne.The under educated people interviewed will appreciate that fact;-)
Feels like the only one with any common sense in Clacton is the Scot.
That couple is right….” Politicians only care about themselves “.
The ones working as corporate lap dogs don't, tory etc.
And so do Tory voters.
And still they believe in Farage, the snake oil salesman, who is well off with his pension from the EU and his job at GBnews.
People voted for a better life. They were absolutely conned.
I'm so glad I left little england in 2017 and will not return. I met too many people like this. Legal immigration is higher than b4 Brexit. Please keep them on that little island.
Oh they'll stay. Too dim to move besides they [the population of wherever isn't Britain] speak foreign and their food's got garlic in it! 🤮

@@abeldemota1851 Russia tried to weaken eu by helping brexit, damn oldies
Yes, when we close our eyes, we may think that migrants ALL want to go to the UK and none of the countries on Europe's coast has any migrants at all.
They are convinced, aren't they, no amount of explanation will be enough.
My nephew, in the Netherlands, wanted a place for himself when he was 23 years old, he ended up living with mom till 29, because no home available.
You ain't telling me, it is any different in any other country.
But try telling that to these folks, they have made their mind up, no amount of explanation will change that.
I tend to think it was the same in 2016's referendum. So convinced of their own truth, if even academics are unable to tell the truth cause people just won't believe them..
_________________
Unemployment and jobs : The same old story that I've heard all my life, from around the 1980's and on.
People tend to see it all black and white.
The truth is grey, not black or white.
I used to work in a factory, I liked it, I had a job that let me spend my energy.
Later on, I tried a job in construction and I couldn't do it, too heavy for my body.
Came home at 17:00, fell asleep in my chair and woke up the next morning at 04:30 and had to race to be on time at work.
No time for cooking, nothing.
That was too much.
I was fine in a factory, not in construction.
Not everyone can do every job. Even if talking about unskilled labor.
I was good at moving 500 ton cargo in packages of 30KG per box.
Not at moving same cargo in packages of 60KG per box.
I rather move twice as fast.
Wasn't very strong, but huge stamina, a job that allows for that, works for me, if not.. then not.
Not black and white : Grey.
But people are rusted in their opinion, unable to see further.
If a little knowledge is a dangerous thing !
Look what ignorance has done.
brexit delivered a disaster
You can understand that people are angry. You can understand that if they vote for anything now it will be a protest vote. You can understand that was a big cause for the Brexit vote.
Ireland warned David Cameron that he did not understand how referendums work. People take the chance to bloody the nose of the government.
Full house on my brexiteer bingo card yippeee

One of the Beatles (George Harrison?) once said that it doesn't matter whom you vote for, The Government always gets in.
Classic example of people fed the same talking points through reading and seeing the same media. This is mind control in action. Immigrants …..where are they? Not there. But still they come up with this nonsense.
yes. i bet they've never seen a brown person in several years but it really irritates them (due to emotional propaganda)

Europe has NOT got it in for Britain… the term ‘Hoisted by their own petard’ comes to mind. Theses people are simply looking for a scapegoat:(
Illegal third world immigration has nothing to do with Brexit.
If you are against third world immigration from Africa and Asia, you control this anyway.
Are you suggesting you voted to stop White French, German and Poles immigrating?
That would require some deeper thinking
They didn't really know what they were voting for.
..It's not hard to understand...
..UK was commercially connected with Europe, and not only large companies, but with thousands of "micro companies" for import and export...
..it is clear that losing a market of 400M population, and gaining a market of 20M Australia..
...is not the same..
The UK isn't full.
Rwanda has a _much_ higher population density.
Depends on what you mean by full. If by full you mean there is not enough land to provide housing, infrastructure and grow enough food to feed those who live here then the UK has been full for a very very long time.
Brtain is full?! Obv. never been to Lincolnshire! 🤣
And the panning shot showed a bare beach front and beach. Hardly more than 10 people there
So we are going to build all over a core agricultural area of the UK? We need places like Lincolnshire to produce crops.
@@Keats-pk6nu Yes, but who's going to pick the crops?
@@Ribod the migrants that currently pick them. However, this doesn't contribute to permanent migration as the Seasonal Worker Visa is temporary (6 months). I can't understand why Suella Braverman keeps referring to fruit pickers and HGV drivers as their numbers shouldn't contribute to net migration. I'm a huge fan of increasing these temporary visas. However, i don't believe that long term net migration of one million people annually is in anyway sustainable.
@@Keats-pk6nu News Flash - fruit pickers no longer want to pick crops in the UK. Replacement pickers from other countries are in the news as having paid large amounts of money to be able to work here, only to be so poorly paid they go home in debt.
