That Poster says "WE MUST BREAK FREE OF THE EU AND TAKE BACK CONTROL OF OUR BORDERS"
It was a lie.
Here's another time the lie was used.....


I get it. You want out and fair enough, but do not, for one second think that the referendum result wasn't influenced by this blatant lie. Same with the Bus.......there's a great number of latent racists who will deny they are racist, but the reality is, if they could blame johnny foreigner for their woes then they will. The Queues experienced by the 60+ year olds who voted leave, when visiting their doctors are the result of tory austerity. The 0% return they get on their savings isn't caused by anything else other than the tories bailing out their mates in the banks....but you carry on with your incorrect stance that both sides lied and therefore it's OK.
We may never know what would happen with a second vote, but one indicator is Farrages Hilarious Facebook poll where he tried to prove that Leave would win again.....it was 91% remain by the time he took it down!

It is not incorrect to suggest both sides lied - you know as well as everyone both sides lied - you need to take your blinkers off.

It was Labour who bailed out the bankers not the Tories - the result was a country in heavy debt when the Tories got into power and something had to be done. Perhaps you thought it should be business as usual?

That's a lovely rant, but bears zero relevance to the post I made, which focused on the background of the picture YOU posted - i.e. the mass influx of well over a million immigrants and refugees through the Balkans, prompted by weak EU leadership and Angela Merkel. The poster specifically targets the EU, as did the speech Farage gave at the time. It's a genuine picture of a real crisis - but in true blinkered left-wing style, you ignore the inconvenient truth and go on the attack.

Got to be said though, if you think immigration (EU and non-EU) isn't putting a degree of strain on public services, housing, etc, you're a blithering idiot. You simply cannot bring in a million people net every 3-4 years without some impact. And that's without considering the societal and cultural frictions. I bet you think that doesn't exist either.

BTW, as Sal says, Labour bailed out the banks.

Riiiiiight. Take your medication.

I was discussing the reaction to an anti-EU poster using a genuine picture (confirmed by the photographer) of mass uncontrolled migration flooding through the Balkans, and of how the snowflake left - as usual - went on the attack with name calling and vitriol rather than focusing on the crisis itself; ideological denial.

You reply with a rant about a bus, old folks at the GP, and then make yourself look a little daft with your blatantly wrong accusations about the bank bailout. You make a lot of mistakes on here, don't you.

But I'll humour you. Are you saying the poster featured a doctored, untrue or incorrect picture? Or that it wasn't directly aimed at the EU and their failure to manage the crisis?

Let me guess, from the link your posted you're going to say we could have controlled immigration all along? That would have been difficult considering mass immigration was Labour government policy from late 2000, and anyone who questioned this policy was shouted down as racist. This is also why the UK was one of only 3 EU countries (with Ireland & Sweden) that decided not to impose labour access restrictions on A8 citizens in 2004. Guess where those citizens went?

Labour and their civil servants were desperate to drive 'diversity', in the knowledge that immigrants are generally more likely to vote Labour. Remember Gordon Brown's 'bigoted woman' comment? That was almost a decade later, still disregarding and attacking the legitimate concerns of the electorate. Even now, any attempt to stiffen immigration rules results in cries of racism by those who STILL pretend everything is rosy.

Don't believe me? Migration, 10 year comparison, aligned to Labour taking office:
1988-1997: 345,000 net (2.8m gross)
1998-2007: 2,070,000 net (5.2m gross)
