[@adamhinchliffe4979]

When Britain entered the 'common market' in 1973 people were told it was a trading block and that was that. Two years later there was a referendum on whether Britain should stay in the EEC. The country voted to remain. Come the early 1990s the EEC became the EU with the advent of the Maastricht Treaty. Political Union and talk of a federal Europe was being boasted about by European leaders. In 2000 the single currency was launched. When did anybody in Britain vote for any of this post 1975? Thatcher realised what was going on and was right to warm about the consequences. This led to the rise of UKIP, the Brexit Party and now Reform. The EU is a dictatorship. It overrides the governments of the member states, it is corrupt and has allowed uncontrolled mass immigration mainly from Muslim countries in the Middle East and North Africa. In doing so it is planting the seeds of its own destruction with centuries of European culture, history and racial make up being sacrificed on the altar of multiculturalism in the name of globalisation. In essence -neo Marxism. Where the communists failed in the 20th century they have now re-emerged without the Marxist/Leninist dogma.

[@xpusostomos]

Technically the EU isn't a dictatorship, but when there are so many layers of bureaucrats between the people and a decision, it becomes functionally hard to differentiate it from a dictatorship

[@mmuzzwell3654]

The latest affront to the E.U establishment was in the last E.P election round. When it was absolutely clear as day that Von der Leyen and others tried with success to scupper (Democratically elected) right leaning MEP's. The establishment obviously pander to globalist banks. The ECB is now in that league. Their ever increasing expansion policies mixed with a decreasingly strong economically membership is a a train wreck happening in slow motion. I am a Brit that lives in the Netherlands for a long time. Shit has gone south here. Overwhelming public concerns about immigration have been ignored by the E.U liberals. It is an institution that nobody asked for. Sure it meant for example that painters in the automotive industry got standardised health and safety policies. But it is arguable whether this would have happened anyway. The U.K Gov. also takes the piss before and after Brexit. We need to assemble a mass movement outside of the political theater.

One of the best PM's we ever had. This speech is one of the best ever, reflecting the British sentiment towards the euopean project that we finally had a say about in 2016. People forget, when we asked to join, before there was anything more than a trade body, they said NO. They said NO, NO, NO just like Thatcher did here. They knew we wouldn't fit in, we couldn't fit in. They follow the Roman principles of law, we follow the Anglo Saxon principles of law. They are incompatible, they bother work but in an incompatible way. They require different ways of thinking and the Europeans, who had never really had democracy at all till after WW2, they knew we wouldn't be an easy bedfellow to please as we simply wouldn't like what they were going to do. I spend most of mu childhood during the 90's being forced into something I increasingly learnt was something I feared, if not simply disagreed with. Nobody asked me when I was 12/13, I didnt get a vote in 1993. Well I finally did in 2016 and project fear won, I voted to remain at first! Simply for fear. Well, I saw the EU's true colours as Brixit played out and I have to say I was happy to finally be proven right. We can get along, we can co-operate, but we cant share the bed. We sleep too differently to be happy that close. We can use the same kitchen perhaps, but thats where the line is drawn, as long as we both keep it clean and have our own bedrooms. Lol, I hear many saying we should re-join, that most Brexiteers are dead or have turned their coats. Maybe some of that is true, but that just highlights the real issue. We got some form of Brexit, we have yet to have a competent Government that can actually use it! Till we do, it is basically as bad as May's BrINO deal. I like to watch this speech as a reminder of the dream of finally leaving correctly, showing the EU that it IS possible, they can do the same. The EU structure must be torn apart and rebuilt, correctly this time and I hoped back in 2016 that yet again the UK can be the saving grace of our EU cousins, showing them that it was broken, we were leaving, it can be fixed and you can fix it. Unfortunately the hard left hijacked that and spun fake news and such that managed to leave the UK and the EU in limbo, till we finally take Brexit and use it. If we ever get the chance...

[@dominikabanel340]

She predicted the future with precision.

[@simonc4483]

When Conservatives were Conservative and not woke right

[@Wydeedo]

Like her or not, an effective orator through and through.

[@aqynbc]

Wish she was there to stop this utterly foolish immigration policy.

[@Captainblack710]

I hate her with a passion but yes she’d of sorted this crap out and lightning fast as well

[@alexzicker]

She was the only man in government, she even sounds like Churchill, as if she were drunk.

[@sachinthakaabeywardena581]

On of my favourite speeches of her. "Last of the Breed" in the UK's political arena. She had the vision and farsightedness to protect UK from Brussels bureaucracy.
