not read it all, but has anyone posted the Ali G JRM clip?
I think that was the first time I ever heard of JRM, one of the few Ali G interviewees that didn’t make a complete tit of themselves…
Anyway, back on topic, what I would like to discuss if we can filter out all the class-hate and privilege prejudice, is whether JRM might be just what the UK needs at the moment…
I’m very anti-Brexit, but I’ve come to terms with the fact that leaving the EU inevitable now and there’s nothing we can do about it.
The government could adopt the attitude that they’ve been bullied into making a self-inflicted wound by the electorate, and they are grudgingly going through the motions with neither enthusiasm or confidence in the process or outcome.
However, I think most people would agree that short of punishing the electorate for making a bad decision, not much else will be achieved by that approach.
JRM seems to be the only pro-Brexit voice that gives me any sort of optimism about the future. His clarity and lucidity on matters of process and procedure has made me feel far less pessimistic about leaving the EU, and whilst I wish to God we weren’t leaving, perhaps it’s not all doom and gloom.
What are other people’s thoughts? (without the wealth-bashing please…)
