It is rare for me to delve into foreign politics but this time is special. I don't like the fact that the UK (Great Britain) had initiated a dubious Leave campaign a couple of years ago. It all seemed to be based upon right wing fears of immigrants. Which is suspicious since immigrants have proven to be exceptional in their ability to adapt to the host country. So like here in America, the impetus had to be more nefarious like hatred for others like what we have. Prejudice is a cowards approach to life and for the UK to fall for that old lie was demoralizing at the time.
But I have been expounding for a Bremain campaign like all good folks in the UK have as well. They call it Remain but I add a B at the front to specialize it to Bremain. Well for some unfortunate set of reasons the British public has not been quick to recognize the dirty politics here keeping Leave as a viable option. My best guess is that the British news organizations have been somewhat complicit in maintaining the deception, given the bad coverage the Labour party has received over the years. However that is changing because the condescending tory party is less able to secret their austerity riddled agenda while the Labour party is all about screaming their pro working middle poor class agenda from the rooftops!
So although there are only 2 days left before this snap election takes place on December 12th, the tide seems to be turning against a once perceived tory victory and a Brexit Leave finality. With Labour attacking austerity and offering a referendum on Brexit, the British people seem to be listening. It is my view, taking into account the latest surge in voter registrations and the ineptitude of the tory campaign that Labour will prevail with a victory on December 12th. I know it seems rather unlikely given the polling but it is my intuition that the major news outlets haven't been as trustworthy as they should be and if that is the case they would be touting a tory lead. I don't believe it and when the final votes come in I hope to be proven correct.
