Ex-Lib Dem leader Sir Vince Cable slams party’s policy to stop Brexit in its tracks

SIR Vince Cable has slammed his own party’s policy to stop Brexit in its tracks.

The ex-Lib Dem chief has called the controversial stance of revoking the Article 50 process if they won a Commons’ majority as “a distraction”.

Current leader Jo Swinson adopted the stance of cancelling Brexit just weeks after she became leader at the end of July.

But Sir Vince said: “I’ve always argued that actually it was wildly improbable.

“We were never going to get 350 MPs, so the policy had been and should be to argue for the People’s Vote, going back to the public, to the referendum with support for Remain.

“So the revoke was a distraction and not a very helpful one.”

The warning Swinson told delegates at her party conference that she would take them from being the third party to challenging for Downing Street.

She boasted: “I stand before you as your candidate for prime minister.”

Polling has also shown that the more voters see of Swinson the less they like her.

The party’s confused message was confirmed by leading figure Layla Moran who said they had gone “back to plan A” and campaign for a second Brexit vote.

      So another Traitor who prefers to LIE to the voters. At least Swindlson has been up front about her intentions.

    Politicians are wrong about what the public want

    So the, out of touch political elite are trying to say that the public would be happy to cough up an extra £2000 a year, per household to prop up the NHS?  Advertisers website Wrong! While many British families struggle to make ends meet, the political elite thinks that people will be glad to fund a failing business that is being run into the ground because of their failed policies on how the NHS is managed? No. This just shows that we have monkeys running our country! Many people on Facebook have shared the above post on various pages; a large number of those people don't even do politics. If our political elite were more than just yes men weighed down by the chains of political correctness, they would see that the people of Britain have had enough.  Ever increasing taxation to try and fix their mistakes?  Continuiosly using the NHS as a stick to beat the opposition or a classic party political paper dragon!

    Federal Suit Hits Soros for $10 Billion for ‘Political Meddling, Motivated Solely by Malice’

    Image
    Billionaire globalist and altogether controversial figure, George Soros, is now the subject of a $10 billion lawsuit accusing him of being a “racketeer billionaire” for meddling in the affairs of a sovereign African nation — purely for personal reasons — in what critics say typifies his modus operandi. See what others are saying about Soros and who he is in the comments section below. FOX News reports the 86-year-old financier and manager of a global network of nonprofits will be forced by BSG Resources’ lawsuit to answer for manipulating the politics and economics of Guinea for his own benefit Despite Soros’ often contentious dealings and reputation as a pompous busybody, the filing in New York Federal Court has thus far largely escaped the spotlight. Soros, who controls a web of international nonprofits in addition to his vast financial empire, used his sway with the government of Guinea to freeze Israeli company BSG Resources out of the West African nation’s lucrative iron ore mini...
