    Look, I'm remain, but the BBC interviewer is trying to create a straw man. She should ask her if all forms of rebellion are signs of oppression, and for examples of oppression from the EU, this would have led to a more productive discussion and I would have learned something from this as a viewer. Frankly, the BBC interviewer failed as a journalist as she's not extracting information for the viewer; instead she's trying to score points over a controversial parliamentarian.

      2. We signed a treaty to join the EU (technically to form it, but that's semantics)
      3. The EU is not blocking us from leaving - they've been accommodating wherever they could be and facilitated Theresa May's red lines (not theirs), but they are obligated to look after their members (just like they still do for us when facing other countries). Our own parliament has refused to accept the only possible deal (given the red lines that WE put in place) on the grounds that it's not as good as membership. Well of course it bloody isn't you fuckwits, you're just too cowardly to admit in front of the baying crowd of pillocks that elect you that there is no form of leaving that is better than staying.

Dodged it again. She's a journalist, it's her job to ask questions. Reading all the comments here the central argument appears to be right wingers not liking the line of questioning. It you don't understand how absurd that is when you take into account her 'job description' then it's no wonder we have Brexit.

I’m v v interested in the Black RUclips channels that are being censored. It’s a joke. Funnily enough, I saw a two militant black activists on some white supremacist radio show, and they got along fine, but some dckhead nut jobs were calling in trying to stir up arguments. The things the white supremacist hated about blacks...the black militant hated about Blacks also.

I mean I get that black slaves had to suffer, but so did the Germanic slaves in Rome, Greece and later Slavic and Germanic slaves in the Ottoman empire. It shouldn't be about which race suffered the most, but about the conflict of class. Racism is a separate issue, which definitely exists, but shouldn't always be brought up if you lose an argument.

Slave triangle (ever heard of it?) Making Jamaica a slave Prison, separating families. Feudal - of Course, you mean the Lords in your Country, fox Hunting, a Royal Family that is not able to unite the Country but take millions. The UK is strong in other areas. But colonism is a rather irrelevant example though, of course, the attitude towards the Third World was quite a different one in the past.

    • @thechadeuropeanfederalist893

      Her analogies are flawed.
      The difference is that all EU members have the same rights and duties, whereas in
      1. colony - empire relationship the empire is privileged over the colonies
      2. peasant-feudal lord relationship the feudal lord is privileged over the peasant
      3. slave - slave master relationship the slave master is privileged over the slaves
      The UK can't control its borders in the sense that all EU citizens have the right to work in the UK, but that's not "oppression" that's a mutual right. All other EU member countries also have to let all EU citizens work in their country, including UK citizens of which there are 2 million who live and work in other countries.
      The UK must adhere to the EU directives, but so must all other EU member countries and they themselves have made and agreed to the EU directives in the EU council, where each member country including the UK has a representative and veto power.
      The European Union IS the Union of its member countries. All EU representatives are elected by their member countries. It's not some feudal lord above the member countries. It consists of the member countries themselves.
      Show me a union of countries that's fairer or more democratic than the EU. There is none. The british empire certainly wasn't democratic. It had no council were each colony was equally represented. The colonies had to obey the orders of the UK. That's different in the EU, where all members are equal and furthermore all members joined by themselves whereas in the UK empire the colonies were conquered violently in war.
      It is a privilege and benefit to be an EU member. That's why many other countries like Macedonia, Albania and Croatia want to join the EU, too.

      Look up the word demagogue, demagogues need to be challenged on the words that they are using, no matter what their stripes are. The demagogue is completely dependent on false equivalence, for example - the comparison of the EU to that of other nations being taken over by an empire, or slaves being owned and oppressed. It is a false comparison, one that is designed to rile up their voter base, that is it. If you are worried about empires taking over worry about the United States, their corporations are salivating at the prospect we are leaving the EU and they are ready with their tentacles to take over our economy and they are not very democratic either.

      @Wanderer1955. For your information, Ann Widdecombe is a staunch Catholic. The Catholic Church has oppressed and enslaved the poor for about two-thousand years. Institutional global child rape, forced conversions, mass imprisonments, mass murder, forbidding condoms in Africa and allowing AIDS to spread, denying raped 13 yo girls abortions, telling any non-believer that they'll spend their eternities in Hell. And just to top that lot, Widdecombe goes around preaching to people about sex and personal morals. A 71 yo prune-faced virgin is obviously highly qualified, eh? If you can give me any examples where the EU compares to the Catholic Church when it comes to slavery and ordering people what to do, then be my guest.
      One other thing: Britain was free to join the EU, and it's now free to leave. How exactly does that fit in with your blind, sycophantic belief that we're slaves?

    This very persistent interviewer needs to look up the meaning of the word oppression. It doesn't just correspond one to one with slavery or the type of treatment slaves received. And it is definitely not loaded in the way that she suggests. It is a much more general word. Ask Noam Chomsky who is a frequent user of the word in many contexts. It's pretty much as general and as broad as the word freedom.
    In actuality, oppression is one of the quintessential characteristics of present-day human society. It is the basis for capitalism and even more so neoliberal capitalism - although I note that neither Ann Widdecombe nor the interviewer, always acting on behalf of concentrated power and big money interests, dare not stray onto that topic.
    Here's the dictionary definition
    oppression

When the peasants in the UK revolted against their masters they were put down. Slaves never had the option of voting to stop being slaves.

      Oh, you have plenty of smooth talking or straight talking politicians. But none of that matters because your political system is bought and paid for.

    I live in the South West. I am happy to be represented by Ann Widdecombe. I am ashamed to be represented by the BBC.

      WE LEFT THE EU ON 29TH MARCH 2019. All MPs have RobinTilbrook MP and solicitor has put a judicial review into court and was ruled in his absence (they waited until he has 2 week holiday and rushed it thro giving 7 days to appeal) and the verdict "no case - without merit". The withdrawal bill gave EU 2 yrs notice UK and if they didn't pass the Teresa May's Deal (which was drawn up by the EU and passed to Merkle and Marcon before May saw it!!) then UK left without a deal and on WTO rules for trade. All MPs have a copy of the court case and there was a 3hr debate in the commons. Media has blocked any news as they are controlled by the globalists. They only way to get this out is by the people sharing and ringing/writing to local media. Graham Moore on FB/Twitter (aka Daddy Dragon You Tube) has good understanding of the constitutional law and is friends with Robin and creates videos about this case. Why is Farage silent? Why are MPs silent? Why has Robin Tilbrook's life beed threatened and Graham Moore has lost his job because of this case? ​ruclips.net/video/wh1VzN6fMOI/видео.html
