Saveed Miliband’s “Guardian” Pieces, Part 24: Two Comments On Brexit From October 2016

Hello, friends.

And I expect you’re all as thrilled as I am that Labour has now – literally – seen the light re the disaster that Hard-Right extreme Brexit represents, and is now pledging to keep Britain in the Single Market and Customs Union!

Not enough, friends!

Naturally I, as a leading voice of the Progressive Left [Ha!J.C. Oh Jeremy! Do you get some kind of sick and perverted kick out of humiliating me in front of my readers?L. Yes.J.C.] am using my not inconsiderable influence [Stop it, Lefty! I can’t breathe!J.C.] to push Labour still further in the direction of a truly Soft Brexit, in which Britain will also remain in Our EU. This is, after all, what most Progressive Left elements – e.g. Our Bank of England, Our Bankers, Our Stock Market, Our IMF, Our House of Lords, Our Judges, Our CBI and indeed Our EU itself – really want.

*************************************************************************************

Anyway, enough of this hard-hitting analysis of the current political paradigm [Ha!J.C.]. Here’s the latest instalment of Saveed’s Greatest Hit-ettes: two pieces I wrote in the Far-Right Guardian last October, both on Brexit. As ever, a link to the original article and my comment, along with any replies, is provided under each piece.

 

Fewer UK firms are struggling despite Brexit vote, survey shows (report, 24.10.16)

Friends! The tragic news that “The number of UK companies struggling to stay afloat has fallen in a further sign that the economy is holding up after the Brexit vote” is – quite literally – tragic news.

But, friends, do not despair! All the experts that I have consulted with – and those of us on the Progressive Left always rely on experts, unlike Hard-Right elements who even now claim against all expert opinion that the Brexit vote has not caused World War III, for instance – have told me that they have high hopes that economic catastrophe is only literally a few days, weeks, months or (worst-case scenario only) years away, all as a result of Hard-Right Brexit.

In other words, friends, we in the Remain Camp have a lot to look forward to! Economic catastrophe, accelerating Climate Change, higher roaming charges and several redundancies in Brussels are just a few of the disasters that we are eagerly anticipating, all because a tiny handful of 17,410,742 Hard-Right racist bigots, who literally swallowed the LIES of the Leave Camp, viciously voted against Our EU in June!

And we look forward to pointing out that every single fall in the £ – which in any case, is now literally worthless – along with every single fall in Our Stockmarket to seemingly ever-greater heights, and indeed every single bit of appalling economic news generally, can be attributed to Hard-Right Brexit, which in any case hasn’t even happened yet! Those vicious Leavers literally ain’t seen nothing yet!

Any “good news” about the British economy will, naturally be *despite* Brexit. But, with any luck, there will be precious little good news, since the British economy – which Thatcher totally destroyed – is literally a basket case, which doesn’t even begin to compare with those of Our EU friends, e.g. Greece, Spain and Italy.

And to think that certain Far-Right Leaver elements claim that we on the Remain side “almost appear to want the British economy to fail”! THEY are the ones who have caused this literally total disaster, after all! Words literally fail me, friends!

https://www.theguardian.com/business/2016/oct/24/fewer-uk-firms-are-struggling-despite-brexit-vote-survey-shows#comment-86079974

 

Exclusive: what Theresa May really thinks about Brexit shown in leaked recording (report, 26.10.16)

Friends! This literally scandalous news that the Hard-Right Bullingdon Bully Boy May – who half-heartedly campaigned for Remain, thus sending out a clear signal to all those of us who were not too blind to hear it that she was in fact a Leaver – has turned out to be a Remainer all along, is quite literally scandalous!

And now, in a typical piece of sickeningly vicious Tory hypocrisy, she has decided to let the views of a literally tiny handful of 17,410,742 Far-Right bigots and racists to prevail, even though literally none of them knew what they were voting for, as they were all literally taken for a ride by the Hard-Right Leave Campaign’s LIES!

The cowardly, hypocritical May will literally never be forgiven for ignoring us – The 48% – because even though some Hard-Right elements predictably claim that we actually garnered fewer votes than the vicious Leavers – a typical piece of pedantic neoliberal mathematical sophistry there, friends – we are actually the Majority, when it comes to such things as wisdom, knowledge, tolerance, kindness, modesty and, above all, self-awareness.

Vicious Hard-Right Tory Brexit is literally the last thing that this so-called country needs, friends! But let us not despair! Our High Court, Our House Of Lords, Our Bank Of England, Our Bankers, Our 1%, Our Lord Mandelson, Our Tony Blair, and indeed many other progressive elements, are literally with us all the way, in our quest to save this so-called country – which Thatcher totally destroyed – from a fate literally worse than death!

What do we want, friends? An end to any kind of Brexit, whether literally Soft or Hard!

When do we want it, friends? NOW! – and preferably a lot sooner than that!

Lefty’s Sunday Selection Of Tweets, 4th-13th August

Hello, friends.

And this is going to be my last Blog [HURRAH! J.C. If you read on just a little further, Jeremy, you may find that your rejoicing is a trifle premature!  – L.] for a little while, as I am taking a Hard Blexit and indeed a Hard Twexit for a couple of weeks, during which I shall not be blogging or tweeting at all! Can you – literally – cope, friends? [Cope, Lefty? It’ll be sheer bloody BLISS!J.C. Oh Jeremy! Such ingratitude! And to think that, without all my support, you would – literally – not be Our Prime Minister! – L. No comment! – J.C.]

My next Blog will be on Tuesday 29th August, with another instalment of Saveed Miliband’s Greatest Hit-ettes from the Far-Right Guardian. And to keep you going till then [Ha!J.C.], here’s my latest selection of tweets. My thanks as ever to everyone whose tweets I’ve reused/mentioned here.

Saveed Miliband’s “Guardian” Pieces, Part 23: Three Comments (All On Why Brexit Is A Total Disaster) From October 2016

Hello, friends.

And I expect you’re all as pleased as I am that Jeremy has now clearly condemned the appalling events that are taking place in the former Our Venezuela, which until recently was a Socialist Paradise, but has now been totally ruined by Far-Right elements – e.g. that bigoted woman, the hated Duffy – opposing Our Free and Fair Elections, in which many Progressive Left elements voted several times, such was their enthusiasm for Our Maduro!

And yet Hard-Right elements STILL claim that “Jeremy hasn’t condemned the Government oppression of protesters”, which is totally unfair, as he’s been condemning this totally unelected Tory Government ever since it was first totally unelected!

Saudi Arabia, friends!

And talk about hypocrisy, friends! What about Saudi Arabia? [What about it, Lefty?J.C. Oh Jeremy! Don’t ask me! It’s just something that we on the Progressive Left always mention when you’re criticised over Venezuela! And, after all, it’s the one Islamic country we’re allowed to criticise without being accused of Islamophobia.L.] What about Grenfell? Foodbanks? Zero-hour contracts? The destruction of Our NHS?  Brexit? No wonder literally nobody wants to come and live in Britain, friends!

Anyway, enough of all this in-depth analysis of recent political developments [Ha!J.C.]. Here’s the latest instalment of Saveed’s Greatest Hit-ettes: three pieces I wrote in the Far-Right Guardian last October. As ever, a link to the original article and my comment, along with any replies, is provided under each piece.

 

From Marmite to the royal yacht, Britain is now a global joke (article by Marina Hyde, 14.10.16)

Wonderfully witty piece, Marina, which literally had me in stitches! And to think that there are Hard-Right elements who claim that those of us on the Progressive Left – and there are many of us, friends, e.g. me – have no sense of humour!

Britain is indeed literally a total joke, friends! Literally everyone from outside this country who I’ve met since that dark day of 23rd June, literally falls about laughing if even the subject of this so-called country – which, never let it be forgotten, friends, Thatcher totally destroyed – is so much as mentioned in passing.

It really is depressing, friends, that a tiny handful of 17,410,742 Hard-Right bigots and racists – who represent literally nobody but themselves – can literally tarnish a nation’s reputation in this way. HOW DARE they vote against Our EU in this way, friends? I am literally outraged by their vicious behaviour!

Fortunately, friends, there is one consolation in this literally tragic state of affairs. Britain still has Our NHS, which is the one thing that makes everyone in the world, and indeed elsewhere, literally green with envy, despite the fact that this totally unelected Tory Government has totally destroyed it (the NHS, I mean) by privatisation, i.e. forcing it to operate a totally unnecessary 7-day service, which it already does in any case.

And then Far-Right elements, e.g. the BBC, wonder why those of us on the Progressive Left are – literally – revolting!

https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2016/oct/14/marmite-royal-yacht-britain-global-joke-news#comment-85473422

 

The public are already turning against Brexit. When will Theresa May listen? (article by Polly Toynbee, 20.10.16)

Well said, Polly.

Those of us in the Remain Camp have ample grounds for quiet satisfaction, as all our forecasts before June 23rd – e.g. total economic collapse, a literally worthless £, accelerating Far-Right Climate Change, World War III, higher roaming charges all over the world and indeed elsewhere, and the threat of several redundancies in Our Brussels – have literally come true with a vengeance. And to think that there are still deluded fools who doubt the veracity of expert forecasters’ predictions!

Furthermore, friends, the encouraging news is that, should plans for Hard-Right Brexit not be abandoned in the very near future, things are going to get a lot, lot worse! (Fingers crossed, eh!)

All the highly-reliable polling evidence carried out by independent and impartial experts – e.g. me – now indicates that practically every single one of that tiny handful of 17,410,742 Hard-Right bigots and racists who viciously voted against Our EU in June, now bitterly regrets their misguided decision, and wishes only that this totally-unelected Tory Government – with opinion polls showing clearly that 53% of voters are utterly opposed to them – would just call off the MADNESS of Brexit, which in any case no-one would have voted for had it not been for the Leave Campaign’s vicious LIES about literally giving Our NHS an extra £350 billion every single second of every single minute of every single day from June 24th onwards, should there be a vote for Leave – LIES which, incidentally, were literally calculated to win the hearts and minds of Far-Right racists and bigots.

No wonder those of us in the Remain Camp – and there are many of us, friends, e.g. Anna Soubry, Lord Mandelson, Polly herself and me – are revolting!

https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2016/oct/20/public-turning-against-brexit-theresa-may-immigration#comment-85868634

 

Brexit: leading banks set to pull out of UK early next year (report, 22.10.16)

Friends! Those of us on the Progressive Left are literally heartbroken by the literally tragic news that Our Bankers and Our Banks will all be literally leaving Britain next year!

And all because a tiny handful of 17,410,742 Hard-Right bigots and racists – who, friends, represent absolutely nobody but themselves – viciously voted against Our EU in June!

Most of these ignorant racists only voted against Our EU because they literally swallowed the LIES of the Leave Camp, e.g. the literally outrageous LIE that, should there be a vote for Leave on 23rd June, then from 24th June, £350 million extra would be spent on our NHS literally every day. And, like all the other LIES of the Leave Camp, that particular promise is now literally in tatters!

In other words, the whole Leave vote was based on LIES, friends! And as a result of these LIES, this country – which Thatcher totally destroyed – is about to lose Our Banks and Our Bankers, which as those of us on the Progressive Left have always argued, are the envy of the world, and indeed elsewhere.

Since the Leave vote was, as I may just have mentioned, based on LIES, surely the whole Referendum result should be declared literally null and void? Let us just quietly drop this whole “Brexit” nonsense – whether it is literally “Hard” or “Soft” – and instead work with our friends in Europe, whose ability to work successfully with other countries, e.g. Canada, is legendary.

Let us literally say “Hello” to Hope and a very literally firm “Goodbye” to Hate, friends! That is, after all, the Progressive Left way, which BTW must surely explain at least in part the sheer amount of electoral success that we on the Left have had in the UK over the past few years.

Lefty’s Friday Selection Of Tweets, 28th July-4th August

Hello, friends.

And I expect you’ll all be thrilled to hear that today I have “reassigned” myself as an 8-year-old female horse, who has also just given birth to two foals, of indeterminate gender, aged 3 years and 10 years respectively! Amazing, eh!

Night mare [Groan! – J.C.]

Of course, Hard-Right elements will doubtless make their usual bile-filled Hate Comments, e.g. “this really is a load of utter nonsense!”, or “you really are one sad loony, Lefty!”

Our Wilts Police, friends!

But when Our Wilts Police smash down their front doors at 6am one day soon, as part of the new, kinder and gentler policing of Hate Crimes, they will soon have second thoughts – and, just for once, these won’t be Hate Thoughts!

Anyway, enough of all this in-depth analysis of the frightening number of Hate People in our so-called society – which Thatcher first claimed didn’t exist, and then totally destroyed – friends! Here’s my latest batch of tweets. My thanks, as ever, to everyone whose tweets I’ve reused here.

Saveed Miliband’s “Guardian” Pieces, Part 22: Five Comments (The Hated T. May; The Hated Brexit; Extreme Brexit; The Hated Opinion Polls; Hard Brexit) From September & October 2016

Hello, friends.

And first an explanation as to why I haven’t written anything in Our Guardian recently!

Can’t be bothered, friends!

The answer, friends, is quite simple! I am – literally – sick to death of the nonstop racist neoliberalism being viciously peddled by that Far-Right rag, and have decided that I should not sully myself by contributing there any more.

Our Independent, friends!

Instead, I am planning to read Our Independent, which some of my friends have told me is more progressive; and if it is to my taste, may contribute there. Unfortunately, so far, I have been unable to – literally – get my hands on it; whenever I look for it in newsagents, they never have so much as a single copy in stock. What a testament to its widespread popularity that must surely be, eh friends!

Anyway, enough of this in-depth analysis [Ha! J.C.] of the Far-Right Media. Here’s the latest instalment of Saveed’s Greatest Hit-ettes: five pieces I wrote in the Far-Right Guardian last September and October. As ever, a link to the original article and my comment, along with any replies, is provided under each piece.

 

Theresa May’s incompetence is creating an opposition within her own party (article by Polly Toynbee, 13.9.16)

Friends! The Hard-Right neoliberal racist Bullingdon Bully Boy May is quite literally the worst Prime Minister to be inflicted on this so-called country – which Thatcher totally destroyed – since Our Gordon left Downing Street in utter triumph in May 2010, having courageously left the Election till the last moment, and which the Tories literally stole by the typically shabby neoliberal trick of amassing more votes than anyone else.

Fortunately, though, practically everyone in this country, apart from a tiny handful of 17,410,742 Far-Right racists and bigots who voted against Our EU in June – and who, friends, represent absolutely nobody but themselves – now realises that we have been literally sold a pup, and that this totally unelected Tory Government, which is literally worse than Hitler, is, quite literally totally unelected.

And then people wonder why those of us on the Progressive Left – and there are many of us, friends, e.g. me – are literally revolting!

https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2016/sep/13/theresa-may-grammar-schools-brexit-chaos#comment-83175643

 

OECD in Brexit warning U-turn as it revises growth forecast for UK (report, 21.9.16)

Friends! It is literally obvious to those of us who are not completely blinkered by Hard-Right neoliberalism and Far-Right Brexitism that the vote for Brexit has been an utter catastrophe for the so-called British economy, which Thatcher literally destroyed.

The tiny handful of 17,410,742 Hard-Right racists and bigots, who misguidedly voted against Our EU in June – and who, friends, speak for absolutely nobody but themselves – should be utterly ashamed of their totally sickening and disgraceful Hate Votes, which have now resulted in a literal tsunami of Far-Right Fascism, i.e. the widely-hated, totally unelected Bullingdon Bully Boy May, who Jeremy literally destroyed in PMQs today, or would have, had she not in a fit of total cowardice cancelled it.

Whatever the so-called OECD – a neoliberal tool of the 1% and the Banksters, friends – may now claim, all objective surveys conducted by impartial economic experts, i.e. me, show that the predictions made by those of us in the Remain Camp, including Our OECD, who surely cannot be gainsaid – namely, a total collapse of Our Stockmarket, an Emergency Budget with higher taxes and cuts in Our Public Spending, economic Armageddon, World III, accelerating Climate Change, higher roaming charge and redundancies in Brussels – have all come true with a vengeance, or at any rate will, literally at the moment that Article 50 is invoked.

And then people wonder why those of us on the Progressive Left – and there are many of us, friends, e.g. me – are literally revolting!

https://www.theguardian.com/business/2016/sep/21/oecd-does-a-u-turn-over-brexit-warning-as-it-revises-growth-forecast-for-britain#comment-83737583

 

We’re marching towards extreme Brexit. Someone must speak for the 48% (article by Jonathan Freedland, 7.10.16)

Very well said, Jonathan. I agree with absolutely everything you’ve written, whatever it was.

Whether they realise it or not, the tiny handful of 17,410,742 Hard-Right racists and bigots, who misguidedly voted against Our EU in June, are either members of the 1%, or are their running-dogs. And in either case, they speak for absolutely nobody but themselves.

We, the 48%, are the majority, and we must – and literally will – prevail.

https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2016/oct/07/marching-mad-brexit-someone-speak-48-per-cent#comment-84920686

 

Brexit statement: David Davis rejects calls for MPs to vote on negotiating terms – Politics live (10.10.16)

Friends! This 17-point poll lead for the Tories proves two things:

1. Labour is still far too Right-wing for the British people. Only when truly Socialist policies are promulgated, along with deselection of Hard-Right elements, e.g. most of the Shadow Cabinet, and practically all of the Parliamentary Labour Party, can Labour’s woeful poll ratings be improved.

2. So-called opinion polls are merely neoliberal tools of the 1% and Banksters, and therefore cannot be trusted, e.g. last year, when they predicted that Our Ed would literally win the General Election, failing to notice that in fact the Far-Right Miliband’s Hard-Right neoliberal policies would literally drive millions of Labour voters to vote for the Tories and UKIP in protest.

No wonder, friends, that those of us on the Progressive Left – and there are literally quite a few of us, friends, e.g. those of us here on CiF – are literally revolting!

https://www.theguardian.com/politics/blog/live/2016/oct/10/jeremy-corbyn-labour-rehsuffle-continues-labour-reshuffle-politics-live#comment-85069477

 

EU council president: it’s hard Brexit or no Brexit at all (14.10.16)

Friends! As those of us in the Remain Campaign – we are, after all, the 48%, which is as close to a majority as it is possible to get – have repeatedly warned, Hard-Right Brexit is, as well as being totally illegal, literally a disaster for the British economy, which Thatcher totally destroyed.

Our friends in Europe are simply giving us the friendliest possible warning that, should Britain be so foolish as to leave Our EU, they will punish us in the severest possible way, which after all is what true friends tend to do if their clear and totally reasonable orders are flagrantly disobeyed.

And Britain has much to fear from Our EU friends, friends! The British £ is now quite literally worthless, whilst the Eurozone literally powers ahead with levels of unemployment, particularly among the young in Greece and Spain, that Britain’s totally unelected Tory Government can only dream about. Meanwhile, there are reports that many of Germany’s and Italy’s banks are – contrary to the scurrilous lies peddled by Hard-Right elements, e.g. the Far-Right BBC – practically solvent.

WAKE UP, friends! Britain is literally sleepwalking in to a Hard-Right Brexit nightmare, from which there will literally be no escape! Let us simply ignore that tiny handful of 17,410,742 Far-Right racist bigots who viciously voted against Our EU – and who, let it never be forgotten, friends, represent absolutely nobody but themselves – and work together with our friends in Our EU, which is widely acknowledged by all objective and heavyweight commentators, i.e. myself, to be the envy of the world, and indeed elsewhere.
