Mainstream media hysteria reaches fever pitch as UK Independance day looms large.

Have you ever been cruising along and just minding your own business and something so surprising happens, that suddenly, you are awakened from your general apathy and are faced with a fundamental realisation about the world you live in.  Something that literally undermines everything you thought you believed in.
Many people in the UK are waking up now to find that the rot at the heart of the political system is far deeper than they thought and that they are not living in a democratic country at all.
For over 100 years, Britain’s 2 leading parties have been trading insults and jeers relatively unencumbered by serious accountability or the incursion of any cheeky upstarts who might pop up and decide to do something radical.  Like perhas, shake up the outdated ‘first past the post’ political system. 
But this 2 party fait accompli is facing an existential threat.  Nothing has triggered so many people to question the legitimacy of those in power after Brexit revealed in no uncertain terms, just how little respect those in the Westminster bubble have for democracy and voters. 
Almost every poll now demonstrates that the majority of people in Britain now feel that neither party represent them and indeed, many of those do not just feel unrepresented, they feel utterly misrepresented. 
This is starting to have an interesting consequence.  Far from being as divided as politicians the mainstream media would like to portray, people are aligning, not behind party lines, or even their Brexit voting stance.   There are signs that many people are unifying against the attack upon their fundamental right to representation and the clear lack of accountability within the houses of parliament.  
There has been a lot of use of the phrase ‘meaningful vote’ in the media and among politicians.  Despite the fact that polls suggest that only around 8% of people are supportive of this position. Yet, outside of Westerminster, what many people are concerned about is whether or not any vote held within the context of Britain can truly be considered ‘meaningful’.  The move among some MP’s to claim a mandate which they do not have to try and subvert the political system we have is not going unnoticed.   For some reason, some MP’s have so much contempt for voters that they are now working against both their party AND their own constituents in a sort of fanatical suicide mission to stop Brexit completely.

They make various claims on behalf of voters they simply have nothing in common with and self evidently could not care less about.  Given recent polls, they seem to be either lying about their motivation or completely and utterly deluded.   IF MP’s took more feedback from their constituents and ordinary people and less from a complicit media, they might actually step back from the brink before we reach a political crisis which renders them completely illegitimate.  There is a price to pay for abandoning democracy and make no mistake, holding repeated referendum or votes on the same issue is NOT democratic, it is the same reason many people voted to leave the EU in the first place.   Britain cannot, now more than ever afford to be torn apart by civil unrest and activism as a result of MP’s seeming willingness to ignore democracy when it suits them.  
The attempts to collude with the media to force feed British citizens ‘Project |Fear 2’ are not working.  Precisely because the Brexit debate exposed media collusion with government in very stark terms.  Simply put, hardly anyone is buying anything from the likes of SKY, the BBC or CNN etc anymore.
It is ironic that the Mainstream media keep telling us all that we are ‘deeply divided’ when they are currently helping people to unify around these fundamental principles. It seems that these organisation understand the law of unintended consequences about as well as the EU they propagandize.   Incidentally, when has democracy not been a means to reconcile divisions and differences of opinion?  Surely, that is the entire point of a democratic process.
These unintended consequence do seem to be having a somewhat unifying effect by giving people something to unify around.   Many people who voted remain during the referendum are simply NOT willing to unravel 1000 years of hard won democratic rights simply to stay part of another organisation with a dubious record when it comes to democracy.   

If an existential threat exists to Britain today,  it isnt from Brexit itself, it is the serious danger of becoming utterly democratically illegitimate and the country tearing itself apart.  The timing of this new party may help avoid that outcome by providing a voice to a large portion of the electorate left hopeless by the conniving politicians that have so unashamedly brought the country low through shere incompetence or machevellian scheming against the voters.  Again, not some voters, ALL voters.   When you chose to opt out of democracy when it suits you, you put yourselves in opposition to the very right to vote itself and all that this means.
Once democratic rights are lost, they are likely to be generations in coming back, if ever.  The UK is on a dangerous trajectory if politicians do not, in good faith, recognise the outcome of a democratic exercise, particularly what was the greatest democratic exercise ever conducted. 

If anyone in the UK is ‘deeply divided’ it is the division between UK politicians and those that voted for them. We are now in a position where an enormous segment of the population no longer have any representation in parliament.   It could be that Brexit will start paying a dividend before it even begins if it breaks the 2 party stranglehold on British politics and brings to the fore a new party which is completely focussed on democratic principles, the equal application of law and order for all citizens and the rationalisation of the voting system itself. 
We now know that a new political party dedicated to holding government to account and taking Britain back towards democratic status has applied for party status in the UK.  LEAVE means LEAVE are rallying people based not only based upon the way people voted in the referendum, but also, based upon deep resentment against the political establishment. 

There is a strong desire to punish politicians for the mess which they have made and we predict, threat the new party will fast become the largest single party in Britain taking many millions of votes from the 2 parties who have betrayed voters.   The country is bored with the politics of identity and labels of left and right just do not apply any more.  The public seem to be crying out for a common sense, centrist party which will respect its members and simply get the job done.   A message that this is the party to end the uncertainty and simply get on with the job is likely to go a long way, particularly if they avoid being labelled as a ‘one trick pony’ with few solutions outside of the Brexit question.  Britain was instrument in the creation of modern democracy, but it has ceased evolving its political system to enfranchise people further.   How can a democratic country, NOT, have proportional representation at this point?
Let us hope that despite the massive conspiracy between a very visible and malevolent cabal of politicians and international media monopoly companies, Brexit brings more unforeseen circumstances for our increasingly anti democratic parliament through this existential threat to the 2 party stranglehold in the house.
But, we are told by the ranting sensationalism of the mainstream media that we are a country ‘deeply divided’. 
With the sheer volume of fake news, puff pieces, bait and switch and diversions used by politicians and the media, it is incredibly difficult to know what is going on. Politicians flip flop between radically different alternatives, sometimes within days of a previous statement, in a desperate attempt to unify members with which they simply have no credibility left.
The level of fake news and bias within the media is completely without precedent.  Without an independent media, there is no democracy.   This is very manifestly where we find ourselves today.   Worried that UK democracy is under threat, the revelation you may have is that thanks to press and political collusion, we are no longer a functional democracy today. 

If the invention of the printing press was one of the most important inventions of the last 500 years and effectively, enabled the march towards democratic nations, then the monopolistic state of the industry seems to be having the opposite effect. 
One thing that politicians could do to begin to rebuild trust is to ensure that the BBC was truly impartial or better yet, no longer simply state sponsored propaganda.   It is almost impossible to find any programming or coverage of Brexit which is not agenda led.  Why are we not seeing the publication and discussion of solutions for some of the risks which Brexit does introduce?  The majority of those risks are eminently solvable or at least, largely mitigable.
