OK conspiracy theory time.
The referendum was held 23 Jun - peak of nationalistic football fervor - the voting masses. Also, just two weeks after the Queen’s 90th birthday celebrations. Nationalistic fervor.
2nd referendum - “nope - not gonna do it!” - despite more than 4m signatures. OK - that’s not 17m, but c’mon - debate it properly, parliament.
UN has now published a report saying - this is hearsay - the EU is damned to a death.
And it appears the idea of a snap General Election is being poo-pooed. By people quoting legalistic bureaucracy. But I can’t believe the 16m who voted Remain can be happy with that, along with all of the Leave camp.
Hello, democracy in the UK - calling! Are you there??! You’re not, are you?! You’ve gone on summer holidays!
Overall - I’m picking up a shift in intent towards the EU, and wondering if the powers that be in the UK determined the following: centrist policies are now worthless, that the EU is bust and corrupt, and come what may, the UK is better out. Then they arranged the most likely scenario for that to take effect.
Because, shit, we’re about to have Theresa May as unelected PM. How did this end up happening?!?!
