  1. The more I hear the hysterical arguments against Brexit by remainers like James O'Brien, the more I come to realise that they're not as rational as they'd like us all to believe. A few days ago, James O'Brien was making comparisons between Theresa May and the nazis, because she is determined to deliver what the voters voted for - to leave the EU. You have to marvel at the logic that would compare carrying out the democratic will of the people with fascism (is this how you sell the idea that democracy is a bad idea?). But that same reasoning is used time and again by people like O'Brien - That we need the EU to save us from ourselves. It's interesting that one (anecdotal) account on his call-in show from a German woman sums up the horrors of an independent UK in O'Brian's mind: That at heart, Brits are hateful, intolerant, contemptible monsters. Never to be trusted. Because if you give them an inch, they'll be pulling on their jackboots and doing their Nazi salutes in no time at all. Well, I don't happen to believe that. I think James O'Brien is projecting his own intolerance onto wider society. Because they dared to vote differently to him.
