- Опубликовано: 4 июн 2016
- Sir John Major, former prime minister and Remain supporter has said the Leave campaign's argument is "dishonest" and "verging on the squalid". Speaking to Andrew Marr, he said he isn't singling out Boris Johnson specifically, but "as the leader he has the power to stop it".

How correct was John Major? 100% correct on every point.
He was the son of Heath. Weak and insipid, played his part in ousting the greatest PM
this country has ever known.
Responsible for the ERM fiasco (the warm up to Euro adoption) which brought 15% interest
rates on Black Wednesday in 1992.
Rammed through t the Maastricht fiasco in 1992 which meant ''ever closer union'' with Europe,
effectively a EUSSR, political and federal union...NOT what we voted for in 1975.
He played fast and loose with the constitution avoiding any democratic consultation with voters
as in 1975.
Not a care in the world as he took the Tories to a catastrophic GE landslide defeat in 1997,
his administration stank the room out as loyal Tories stayed home and gave a great big raspberry
to the EU.
@@lennylaa1686 He never would have done to 'UK' what the current lot of Tory clowns have done to 'UK'.
@@martinmcdonald4207 Get real, he was a million times worse. His lunatic European dogma caused a very severe recession, companies going bust, a million on the dole
Sorry? The Tory’s? You must be mad. The situation we find ourself in now is 100% the fault of Tony Blair. No one else.
@@JamesS-nh6ly Blair was very pro Europe. Own your Tory Brexit mess and stop moaning and blaming every one else for your stupidity.
Five years later and John is proved right.
He had integrity.
@@andrewschneider5193 Sir Major for you, you Brexitsnowflake.
this is a first
John Major really wasn't that bad as far as Tories go, he's not malicious like the others.
possibly inept but not evil
I don't agree with his politics but believe he is a decent man who cares about his country , unlike the current incumbent of number 10
He never attended Eton, Cambridge or Oxford. a Grammer school boy and all the better for it.
@@martinmcdonald4207 I personally think attending Oxbridge should immediately disqualify you from a career in politics.
LOL! 😆😆🤣🤣 Did you check the result of the 1997 GE? He was an unmitigated disaster.
Was John Major born old? he's hardly aged since the 90's.
He was about 46 in 1990, and today he's 76
He's face has changed the hair since 1996 has been the same.
@@HOOGEEMAN I miss his giant glasses, he looks boring with those regular reading glasses
@@Abdirahman_Mohamed When i was younger i used to mistake him for Elton John. He still looks a bit like him now.
His hair is less grey
This has aged like wine.
Pretty hard to find a politician who tells it like it is. Unfortunately that the public doesn't actually want to listen.
I'm a center-left guy, Major is a center-right guy. But he seems to me to be an honest, balanced guy and, while I was a kid back when he was UK prime minister, I get the feeling he could have been (and perhaps, looking at it historically, was) a fantastic prime minister had it not been for the far-right wing of the Conservatives (who, some 20 years later, took over the party completely) and had the public been more serious about the aspects it finds important in a leader (Major may not be very charismatic - but so what?).
@@ZiggyMercury Difficultvto believe that this conversation is still hanging on even in a desultory fashion. But to me and I’m probably just centre right, Major was flawed with dual standards in both his private and public life. He never rang true and I believe his behaviour in actively attempting to undermine the official policy of our legal and democratically elected Government by colluding with the E U during the Brexit negotiation was proof positive of his dubious standards . Same when he ducked out of the scandalous M P’s “Cash for Questions “ enquiry that should have been a priority in an open and honest Government.
@@jamesdouglaswhittaker1811 I hate the tories for all the harm they've done to this country, but I would take John Major over any of the incompetent, corrupt, and callously cruel clowns currently in government any day of the week.
The tories need to move back to the centre, not keep pushing further to the right, to satisfy a vocal minority that do jot reflect the nation as a whole.
Failed to hold a referendum on the EU in 1992.
Disastrously split the party...just like Heath in 1971/1972.
@@ZiggyMercury Research the Maastricht fiasco and Black Wednesday.
He was a failure as PM.
Dennis Skinner said John Major is a better person than Tony Blair.
I completely agree.
I'm sure he is, but politics isn't about being a nicer person.
Could you lend us John Major? We need him as politician in Italy.
When he was in power I thought if him as bland and hard line. How times have changed. Now I feel deep relief at listening to someone with integrity, clarity and humanity.
He and his wife used to eat regularly at a cafe I waitressed in when I was a student (circa 2011). He was always unfailingly polite and actively kind. Took the time to have a chat with me about what I was studying at university. Didn't need to do that - no one important was watching. Class act.
He was weak and insipid, a miserable failure.
You were right the first time about him.
He has fooled you...a dishonest, devious non democrat. ...
Who totally ignored the opinions of the British voter.
@@daftvader4218 I couldn’t agree with you more. Blair and Major compliment each other perfectly.
It's November 2022 and this video has aged extremely well. It's so poignant yet factual.
John Major is a very rare breed indeed, a Tory with a brain and some decency.
People don't listen and they don't know much about the subject, Now they know.
He was weak and insipid, rammed us into the EU without voter consultation.
Good for John Major. I've never voted Tory, and I was too young when he was PM to make much of him one way or another, but this gives me real respect for him. Clear and honest warnings, and sadly he's now being proven right every day.
John Major screwed the UK and you say "Good for John Major" !!! Hes a career poltician. He rose up thru the ranks of state privatization and then banking...just another man who see poltics as an opportunity to line ones own pocket.
The man was and is bloody useless.
Same here I’m not a conservative but I’d like to see John major come back into politics
@@stubru16 Would you! I suggest you research all, and I mean all his failures. On that basis if you ever think of following him into politics, do exactly the opposite to what he either did or would have done and you should be okay. In short the guy is a clown.
He was and is a waste of space. And what does he matter anymore ? He was thrown out for being useless.
This has aged very well, unlike Brexit.
Six years on, the foresight of John Major is still astounding.
He was a prime minister, he had access to all the classified information, had the best advisors and well educated. Importantly, he has no political aspirations so his opinions aren’t calculated to appeal to an audience for self interested reasons.
He's a bitter Remainer, one of our worst ever PM's.
Loyal Tories deserted him in 1997 when he took the party to it's worst ever defeat.
The only lies and deception were from that fraud Ted Heath who conned us into the EEC.
Yeah Major? The PM with a terrible administration. 15 MPs sacked for either fraud, corruption or sexual misdemeanors.
Major with the reputation for indecisiveness and dithering.
Major who plunged the UK further into recession by tying the pound to the ERM and costing us billions?.
Major? The guy who created care in the community where mentally ill people started stabbing by passers in the street.
Major with the cones hotline?
We're you ever there for Majors premiership - the only thing that went in his favour was he got lucky with the timing of the economic cycle and basked in the glow of the hard work Maggie had done
Major an absolute utter failure who at the time NO DOUBT you would have been critical of.
It's just logics. Everyone who had studies the basic courses in Macro and trade economics know this. The sad thing was all the gaslighting,,,
@@larstenfaelt1859 Trade with the EU is up since leaving. UK exports fell EVERY YEAR from 1999 - 2012. Instead tog waxing lyrical you need to look at some real figures.
EU has never been as important to UK trade as EU nutters make out.
US always been the biggest investor in UK followed by Japan and independently Germany.
Do you even realise most of the EU is made up of TINY TINY economies like Romania Latvia, Bulgaria, Malta, etc... It's not the great big powerhouse you think it is. Germany, France and Italy are the biggest economies after that it's all tourist destinations and fishing villages.
Fantastic listening to this in 2023
💯 %👍
I like Mr Major a lot, he speaks with clarity and passion, direct and genuine man.
Except when he lied about putting VAT on fuel in the 1992 General Election campaign. Not quite so genuine then...
@@kevinlongman007True bit these days he’s wise and Brexit has messed up and crashed the UK into an iceberg.
@@PC-lu3zf He is totally correct in this interview.
He was a totally useless prime minister that had no credibility, but weirdo remainer obsessives who would have HATED this man back in 1992 now love him to bits because he has the same warped mentality as them.
It's quite pathetic.
passion oh yes, for Edwina Curry and for privatising the railways no matter how much chaos that entails
Five years down the line, and I wonder how many of those who wanted Britain to leave the EU so badly they gave this a thumbs-down might see it differently now through the looking glass of reality. And I wonder how many of them had the slightest idea of the implications.
Not many sadly, most are cultural warriors happy for the rest of us to dig for victory
Brexit means Brexit you racist bigot
It turns out the remainers were the ones doing most of the deceiving. Brexit as it turns out was mostly harmless. The reason the world's gone to pot is because of Covid and Russia.
We had 47 years of assessing our membership of such a squalid, protectionist racket......
it brought us no benefit.
We handed them £300 BILLION contributions in 47 years. Absolute madness!
Young voters should never have voted, they were clueless.
When John Major makes a far better case than the PM
He seems like a fairly decent chap, I wonder why people hate him so much?
Lee Ludlow
Has there been a prime minister in the last 50 years that wasn't though?
+Ben Willock exactly so why should we trust Cameron. This is a fact if Britain votes to leave the eu Cameron and all his cronies all these IMF leaders and their types will resign instantly because people will see for themselves that everything they have promised will happen will never happen and they will be branded liars. Then the questions will come of why they lied so hard and tried to cripple us and shackle us to this sinking ship in the first place.
Lee Ludlow He saved the lives of tens of thousands of Kurd's when he imposed a no fly zone in the north of Iraq
+Trev S lol what's that got to do with wether he can be trusted on the eu issue. Oh and it was America who told us to put the no fly zone in place.
What John Major said 6 years ago was absolutely correct. The consequences he talked of have all played out just as he said they would. And the ones who are suffering most from the deceit and dishonesty of those disgraceful politicians is the British public.
What a Prime Minister .tells the truth no matter what ?
A one sided interview from the BBC with a decent x British Prime Minister who compared to today’s lot was a breath of fresh air.He was right about Turkey and a lot of other things.He talks and looks like a British Prime Minister not like the dreadful lot of today.
He wasn't a 'breath of fresh air' all he did was scrap the poll tax but any next PM would have done that anyway. He didnt have any policies of his own it was just a kind of continuation from the 80s but without the proper boss (Thatcher) in charge.
When John major was in power what I can remember from my age is we was all happy he is a truly a legend he's a honest guy not like clown's we have nowadays
Your right man taswar .
@@JupiterThunder he done what others couldn't wouldn't didn't.... he made it possible to stop 90 % of the the killings in the North of Ireland and took armed soldiers off the street and made peace possible .. to ignore belittle that is blasphemous.
@@JupiterThunder Compared to Johnson,Major is like Einstein.
Major scrapped the bloody awful Poll Tax.
HE WAS DREADFUL
I remember John Major as PM but I've never seen him so animated as he is here. I never saw this interview but it was clearly unusual in that the interviewee is so straightforward and unambiguous in his answers and statements. Historians will be looking at this interview with great interest in their future analyses of Brexit.
As accurate as John Major's words are, Andrew Marr doesn't come across too well in this interview! Somewhat lightweight!
Very smart man! He was right about his prediction! I`ve never seen a society so hell bent on committing suicide as modern day Britain...
Hopeless PM, split the party on the EU fiasco.
walking off a white cliff high on fumes of exceptionalism and past glory
everything he said is coming true! Why don't the BBC replay this interview..
lmao what's coming true? People panic buying fuel when there were plentifull stocks the night before everyone went berserk buying it? Or do you mean the lorry driver shortage that is WORLD WIDE?

Well said John. The country is in the shit as result of Brexit.
And who's to blame for bloody brexit - John F'in Major.
Don't give a shit what folk say about John Major, the guy has integrity. And when he left the Premiership, he made money by his own hard work. ( wrote a decent book on Cricket, believe it or not).
Compare and contrast with today's tawdry bunch. Sad how things have slipped.
And journalistic standards are terrible nowadays too.
Not good enough.
Integrity? Presumably the same 'integrity' he practised while banging Edwina behind his wife's back?
He was no better than all the tabloid-outed sleaze-jobs that infested his party at the time.
@@analogueman123456787 True,but at least he called out the " b@stards" for what they were. That was what I was getting out of the integrity point. Edwina Currie was a dreadful lapse of judgement ( don't you dare suggest you're squeaky clean either. You're human, same as us all) Johnson, by direct comparison, rode a Bentley through propriety like nobody in history. Meani ng Major was a kid to Johnson's Machiavellian monster.
@@davidripley2916 - With respect David, one can't pick what is and what isn't integrity, and palm off what suits as merely a 'lapse of judgement'.
True, we're all human, and to put it crudely, we're all lead by our dicks. That's how we're made, and yes, I've been there too! I'm not judging the guy for it.
He 'called out the b'stards' only insofar as it was an off-guarded comment at the conclusion of a television interview. Was he right? Yes, I think he was, but the context was that he headed a deeply fractured party and cabinet, and that under a stronger leadership like Thatcher it could have been held together far more effectively. He just wasn't that kind of guy.
Never underestimate the unrecoverable damage a single unguarded comment can make, politically speaking; something Gordon Brown also discovered to his cost some years later.
@@analogueman123456787 Thanks, dude, I needed correcting, I guess. You're spot on, btw! 💎
watching this in 2021, still feels goosebumps of what may happen to UK after Berixt.
We're already billions down in exports to the EU. Major was absolutely right and history will judge the Leave campaign and all the proponents of Brexit very harshly.
No need for UK to be a vassel state of the EU.
John Major, one of the very few Tories with an ounce of integrity.
You are being ironically provocative, aren't you?!
routeman680
No, I'm being genuinely serious.
@@tigereye1208 In that case, perhaps you could explain one of many disastrous decisions John Major's made, it is refereed to as "Black Wednesday September 16, 1992.
Wonder if his wife would agree with you when she found out that he was sleeping with Edwina Currie followed by ridicule.
Lol
Honest, forthright, impassioned and entirely accurate remarks from John Major. Respect to him. History will not treat the proponents of Brexit at all kindly.
He’s wrong and so are you.
Neither will I.
Like Heath, he was deceitful and a failed PM.
Do you want to be a free, self governing and sovereign nation or just a satellite
of a European Soviet Union, shovelling billions into the Brussels Greed Gravy train
and forever taking orders?
@@lennylaa1686 Blah blah. More deranged tabloid bs spewed from an unthinking automaton.
I'd like to think that if Boris Johnson was ever to watch this, he would have some sense of embarrassment for engineering Brexit. Of course that wouldn't happen because of his inability to confront anything mildly resembling truth.
John major was proved right
No he wasnt
Yes he was
The real question is - right ? on what ? And please don’t say his l disastrous Maastricht he bullied and bulldozed through by heavy whipping - at the second attempt, having failed the night before .
@@jamesdouglaswhittaker1811 I am no fan of his either and not a Tory but it's brexit being discussed here and he has been proven 100% correct.
@@susansantapola Not sure being proven correct is truly correct. The Brexit we got is rubbish in comparison to the Brexit that was the one aimed for and that one was greatly derailed by lots of influences ( and dishonesties) , all of them extraneous , unofficial, interfering and that included Major and others of similar ilk who should have had more integrity than to make approaches to the E U and sundry of its officials effectively consorting with the ‘opposition ‘ against the official policy of our legal and democratically appointed Government. They undoubtedly weakened the bargaining strength/position of our elected Government. So yes undoubtedly Major has been largely proved right as you say but perhaps not so surprising in that his efforts actively contributed to that ‘rightness’ result. Add that to the other instances I quote above and my wonder is how he inspires any confidence, from anyone , anywhere .
Wow, 29.09.2019 - and this man got everything right! Sir John Major - highly intelligent man! Every sentence in this interview proves to be true now...incredible! The part for loyalty is spot on right in the center!
He was!!! Totally right!
He was 100% right. No more to be said.
Indeed Ray. What's also striking is just how lightweight Andrew Marr is.
Go tell that to Edwina
Eggwina
Wise words that aged well....
ha you clown, have fun in ukraine!
I think it's a bit troubling that something as significant as the UK's position on the world stage was allowed to be decided by such a narrow margin.
I agree. It should have been 2/3 at least. Cameroon made a major mistake.
@@verabolton Cameron should be whipped through the streets for what he allowed to happen to this country. This all stems from his austerity policy, which drove public support to UKIP. He held the referendum, arrogantly thinking he could blunt it like happened with the scottish referendum. He should have made it so the referendum was only valid if a minimum percentage of eligible voters voted, and set a threshold of 60% to win.
If Mr Major was PM I would vote for the Conservatives (first time in my life - I’m 72 years old). He is the ONLY politician I trust.
I wouldn't go that far to vote Tory however major has proven to be 100% accurate on the brexit issue. It's a disaster.
It has all become true.
Very well said. The leave campaign have put forward no alternative to what The Uk would look like outside.
Do we know what it will look like if we stay in? Does it look anything like what it was in 75??? Haven't u got any common sense at all????
+Fred Mann history? Fought against Germany and Italy and Spain and France. Erm trading block??? U mean the slowest growing reading block on the planet oh apart from ant arctic. Yeah very clever mate. I'll be voting out.
Look up the website of Economists for Brexit to find alternative predictions from the Remain predictions. All predictions from either side depend on the assumptions which go into the model and are open to error. But it would be foolish to trust the naked propaganda of Osborne's treasury report or Obama's laughable intervention at Cameron's behest. Think also about vested interests: global banks, institutions which are funded by the EU, . . . .
How right he was, I find new respect this ex PM who’s side I have never supported
Easy hindsight is it not?!!!
A thoughtful, intelligent, reasonably honest, and articulate politician. It's like seeing a unicorn
He's been proven to be right. Very wise and foresightful Sir John Major.
He warned at Leveson that Rupert Murdoch wanted Brexit.
We have now seen it carried out.
Heads must roll.
Who would have thought that the John Major years would turn out to be the golden age of the Tories?
From the Continent ..... Due to tariffs and now prolonged shipping times I unfortunately Order and buy less from Britain . Yes , the larger firms now have logistics and warehouses on the Continent . But from small retailers and Firms I no longer buy from . ..... I truly miss the direct and hassle free trade of the past . Why Britain Why ?? we are your neighbours and closest Clients and Market
Were they thoroughly honourable men? Were they heck.
In those years (90s) as he had to take the place of M. Thatcher I used to dislike this man cause he was "grey"... Well, over 25 years afterwards, this man is talking reason and saying things...
I can't watch these debates anymore with someone knowledgeable and some dope who knows nothing, being given equal respect. It's why we are where we are. This is a great interview. This interview from Sir John has held up exceptionally well.
John Major, one of the few politicians who can control the interviewer. Even Andrew Marr couldn’t interrupt/disrupt him on the points he was making.
He,s being proved spot on sadly so far, thats why he was prime minister he knows how things tick one of the best Tories as pm we had, brought up on a council estate by his single mum !
I agree with john major the public has been mislead
Yes by him
Yes, by Cameron, Osborne, Mark Carney, Barack Obama to name a few!
He would mislead them, if they listened without falling asleep.
Youre right, Project fear 1, 2 and 3 were outrageous liars.
You always get one dimwit
How exactly does one get from a free market to having *Authoritarian rule* over us?
Major turns up to deliver a serious message on UK politics. Marr turns up to interrupt him and make it all about Johnson. Is it any wonder we're in the state we're in?
We now know he was correct on every point
I voted leave. I thought the UK would end up with a single market Norway style brexit. What has happened is a complete disaster. Fair play to Sir John, he knew Boris was a dishonest chancer.
Read between the lines, UK was enjoying all the benefits in the big one market, but shoulders no responsibility to EU’s debt, still had its own currency, opt out of the Schengen scheme, it’s bloody much better than what Norway is having.
And yet, UK chose to smash that deal with EU.
Regardless of whatever spectrum of politics one might be, sir Jhon Major was squarely right then as he is today, spot on also in all the consequences that Brexit would entail. Is there any one left with enough intelligence in the UK and vison today to make see sens and that anyone would care to listen?
Love the socks. Grey of course
James Got them as a present of curry
The tie isn’t grey
I like John Major
So you're that admirer.
Your the only one
John Major’s right about virtually everything he said and nobody listened. Turkey will never join The EU and they shouldn’t either. This would put The EU border with Iran. Turkey has human rights issues, problems with their laws and their values aren’t shared by EU values.
Yes, Mr Major, the Leave campaign was deceitful and dishonest.
Now please accept YOUR fair share of the blame for Brexit by entering the Exchange Rate Mechanism as Chancellor in Thatcher's government back in October 1990, with a totally unfeasible rate of 2.95 DM to the pound.
You hadn't consulted any other European leaders or financial experts about this, and they were frankly concerned with such a high valuation of sterling considering inflation in the UK was 3 times that of Germany at the time, we had higher interest rates at 15%(i.e. no margin to put them higher to protect sterling without causing a massive slowdown) , and a much lower labour productivity. 2.95 DM was way over the top, and almost immediately from the start pressure began building up on the pound in the markets.
And we all know what happened, don't we?A slow motion train crash followed by sterling's humiliating exit from the ERM on Black Wednesday, 16th September 1992. Do you remember that John? The humiliation marked a turning point for Brexiteers: up to then they had been seen as the bunch of loonies they really are, but then they began to garner respect as a populist alternative to an evil European empire out to get us. The sensationalist shit rag press saw the opportunity to sell more shit by jumping on the bandwagon and so the process started. There, John, right there. Because of YOU and your reckless stupidity.
Everybody makes mistakes, and with hindsight they become apparent. Hindsight here clearly shows that your mistake was a big one. So please.... accept that you screwed it up big time and started the Brexit bandwagon moving. That would be an important contribution to the pro EU cause.
Sir John makes the present crop look really bad.
Totally correct, Sir John.
6yrs on from this interview JM has been proven to be spot on, the public were lied too and what a mess it is.The sick man of Europe again!
UK now even facing the risks of regional collapse because of Welsh, Scottish, NI Independences
It is truly inspiring to reflect on John Major's foresight on Brexit and his ability to convey his message with eloquence and common sense. In an era where politics is often rife with division and self-interest, Major's leadership and Vision for the big picture are qualities to be admired. His ability to communicate his anger with words rather than tone or gestures is a testament to his statesmanship. We need more leaders like him who can rise above personal interests and prioritise the public's well-being. May his example inspire us all to strive for excellence in leadership and work towards a brighter future.
Well put, sir.
you haven't a clue, this loony liberal caused crime to soar when he stopped prosecutions of youths, he privatised the railways causing years of chaos and confusion and he was shagging Edwina Curry, the dirty little man and weirdo
You send us some tea & crumpets, & we'll send you some maple syrup & moose meat.
Ive just only seen this and can't believe my eyes and ears, here we are in 2023 and everything he predicted was 💯 %, unbelievable, congratulations Mr major a true pm, 👍👍👍
A toss up between Major and Gordon Brown who was our worst Prime Minister ever…
we never get straightforward answers from ANY government !
I don't usually agree with John Major but everything he says here is correct.
And now Leave voters are saying 'no one told us'. Why didn't they just listen?
8 years ago and still not resolved: the real price of Brexit. I remember watching this on the TV and making my plans. Sold a UK LTD and moved overseas. So sad to see UK PLC sold by the pound.
Watching this in 2023 is scarily accurate
So well said sir John major
What a big shame no body listened to your wise words
Aged like fine wine
The right age for him to serve as a leader.
Honest John how this country of Great Britain 🇬🇧 needs more of his quality, and he was quite right about deceitful Johnson and all the stats Johnson has Turkish ancestry wonder why he did not want the 88 m Turks arriving in England they make great kababs ❤
On leaving you know what is left behind and not what lies ahead. Every decision comes with a risk.
may i disagree and suggest one may know. i submit this interview as evidence.
Well said John 100 % correct
He was absolutely right, Brexit fucked us, yea the pandemic didn’t help, but still. And he was right about Russia! Very rarely do I believe a Tory, but he’s spot on here!
It's pretty amazing to see tens of millions of people vote for Leave.
Pretty depressing, frankly.
I don't understand how countries like Britain call themselves developed and more informed when they choose not to listen to well articulated and sensible people like Major and then go on and do what people like Johnson say?

Please come back, Sir John. I admit I didn't really like you back in the days. I was wrong as I now know. The world is in dire need for reliable honest educated politicians like you, who have enough backbone to stand up for what they believe in. We've had enough reality denying populist running after the latest election prognosis doing a slick 180 overnight.
Fortunately the British people gave up on Sir John a long time ago. Why take advice from a man who had an affair with Edwina Currie?

John Major. Are you kidding us all or just yourself? U are angry? No. We are angry about your lies. As a result of your policies we are in this mess in the first place. Yes the UK is great but wont be tomorrow if the EU and apparently you too gets your way. On immigration you are full of BS. Out campaign is very clear on how to regulate immigration. You should be ashamed of yourself trying to justify your failed policies and still holding a UK passport. Trade is based on 3 things. Product demand, price and quality. Apply these 3 basic capital principles and you will trade and be successful. Just look at Iceland, Norway and all other economies outside the EU which by the way are doing better than we are. You like Boris? Than endorse him. When asked a direct question why do you step away and hide behind your self proclaimed righteousness because you are advocating on behalf of the poor. I havent heard I single argument from you in 15 minutes of propaganda for the remain camp which is based on facts. Not one. Do not believe his lies. Brexit.
Successful country!!!!!? How do you figure that one out Major!? We're still in austerity 8 years after the banks screwed us...hardly a success story!
Thats the Tories for you, and we still voted them in again!!!

well out of the Ukraine loop for safety. You may remember Johnson's
candid photo at Stansted airport after seeming to have slept in the Easy
Jet baggage hold, on his return from his fourth attendance at the
oligarch's favorite son's drug addled 'Russian Bonga Bonga' style party
in 2016 at Lebedev's palace, which is "so camera'd up that shots can be
take from ten angles at a time for "extra clarity" in Perugia where
"everything is on the menu" and according to MI5,6,7,8 and 9 "all who
attend are compromised by Putin's dubious friends"
It appears that in
the corridors of Brussels, they haven't forgotten either. "We don't
want Johnson, the scruffy liar, to spill the beans again to Putin in
exchange for a further delay in publishing the "Italian Party Pictures
in HD" regarding our actions and our help in Ukraine" said Ursula to
Šefčovič, in fluent Polish.
