This is no time for fence sitting. You’ll only get splinters in your bum. This is a time for Europe. And our future within it. Or without it. In politics as well as football. And decisions have to be made.
This picture is of sweet blond, Eva Van Housen. She sits on no fences. EVER!! She probably eats broken glass.
But she demonstrates quite nicely, one part of the political spectrum. Which many believe is not a linear affair with ‘right wing’ at one end and ‘left’ at t’other, but more a circle. Because that circle meets when you go just a touch to right of Nigel Farage or the left of Jeremy Corbyn. The place where Hitler meets Stalin and all is equal. Such extreme totalitarianism, however its marketed, is the same. Is Kim Jong Un a fascist or a communist? Makes no difference whatsoever to the starving masses of North Korea living in absolute repression.
Then Eva comes along and in fact starts to straighten that line once more. Because if you go all the way to the right, to the English Defence League, the Ku Klux Klan, Donald Trump and all manner of neo-nazis, if you then go just a touch further you reach the place where brain cells are replaced by tattoos. And that’s where Eva lives. The place where they have, to quote the Mail on Sunday: ‘a swastika on her breast’. Though you’re not supposed to be looking there when you talk to her.
How unusual, implied the Mail, that someone with such political views should also be an active member of the ‘vote leave’ campaign. I mean; who’d’a thought? That an ultra-nationalist should want our lonely little Isle to be freed from foreign input, foreign interference, foreigners comin’ over ‘ere, takin’ our farkin’ jobs, eatin’ our farkin’ babies, bein’ sick in our farkin’ ‘ospital beds.
But being the Mail, it has to be way more insidious than just that. ‘Look who is on Boris’ team’ the headlines shriek. All manner of neo-nazi vermin are handing out the official ‘Brexit’ leaflets.
And thus by Mail style implication of reciprocity, Boris must therefore be ‘one a them’. There are supporters of Spurs who are nasty, violent, bad people. That doesn’t make the team bad. Whereas at Chelsea, oddly, it really does.
Nigel Farage then today opined (and he has many things to opine, does Nigel) that staying in Europe will increase the number of sexual assaults on women by migrants. Which, presumably, is grossly unfair on proper, English sexual assaulters who won’t get their fair share.
The whole debate is now ruled by total tossers. Both in and out. It just becomes a question of who is the best, or worst, among them.
Happy Sunday
