The Telegraph ^ | May 22, 2016 | Peter Foster, Senay Boztas

Britain could “liberate Europe” for a second time in a century by voting for Brexit on June 23, triggering a “patriotic spring” across the continent and an outpouring of populist discontent against Brussels, Geert Wilders, the right-wing Dutch populist, has claimed.

Great Britain needs a “Donald Trump,” instead of another Neanderthal whose eyes are so close together he can see through a keyhole with both of them at the same time!

Funny, I thought it was the Yanks who liberated Europe the other time(s).

There is a big scare campaign against leaving the EU. But Britain was perfectly alright before its EU membership, and will be better off if they can get free.

What a freaking joke. Britain didn’t liberate anything. America saved Britain’s ass. Twice. In one century.

They have Nigel Farage. Britain, like all of EUrope, is drugged with the dogma of secular left transnationalism. They do not recognize in sufficient numbers that they are dying.

Eastern Europe has enough vitality and FAITH to fight still. WE in the US must stop being the bully boy backup for the EUrocrats. Transnationalism is at least as much of an insidious and dire threat as international communism was. It is largely its successor, with the worst aspects of corporatism alloyed into it.

We should have let nature take its course in the Great War.

Britain will choose to politely and moderately continue to sit on it’s thumb.

Sucks that so many died in vain just to secure this disgusting future. Would’ve been better off leaving Kaiser Wilhelm/et al alone.

Go for it Brits! You are English speaking, God fearing peoples with a rich history that deserves respect in the global context. Why decimate who and what you are by participating in this Globalist concept that is doomed to failure? Why not instead spread the message of peace and prosperity by nation states negotiating mutually beneficial trade and protection agreements that benefits their citizens? This does not fuel the globalists, but does fuel the common man and woman.

I agree. WWI was the worst thing to happen to Western civilization.

“Stay” appears to be the way it’s leaning. I think they fear they will go into a recession should they not. It’s possible, it’s hard to say from here. But they are ratifying the control of Brussels over them and I find that entire setup galling.

“I return you thanks for the honour that you have done me; but Europe is not to be saved by any single man. England has saved herself through her exertions, and will, as I trust, save Europe by her example.”

William Pitt
Lord Mayor’s Banquet
7 November 1805

Agreed. Jumping into the birds-nest of European idiocracies shooting at each other because a handful of Americans willingly rode on a vessel of a foreign nation at war with another foreign nation known for sinking said vessels (Germany actually printed warnings in US newspapers of the time) is one of the most hair-tearing international mistakes ever.
