Another extension requested.

I’ve noticed a number of different ex English sportsmen active on social media and all pro-brexit. The emphasis seems to be shifting from the economics of it to quite a patriotic and dare I say it Xenophobic one. Another Trumpian type leader taking over in such a destabilised UK and you would have the ingredients of a dangerous alliance which could have catastrophic implications globally. The era of anglo-saxon dominance is coming to an end but they won’t go quitely.

All the rugger heads like Austin Healy and Andy Goode are pro Brexit which is hardly surprising given all the bangs on the head they got during their careers

A vacuum gets filled by these types when the custodians of democracy forget who put them in their priveliged position

Well a lot of them would buy into the nationalist stuff as that’s where they would have made their wealth and got their fame. Add in that they are often quite well off and there you go.

Gary Linekar and Brian Moore of the vile lefties hellhole the BBC are outliers of course.

Rio Ferdinand, David Beckham, Jamie Carragher and Gareth Southgate are all pro-Remain.

As is, more surprisingly, Alan Pardew.

Darts’ Bobby George and James Wade are Remainers.

Big Sam Allardyce went on a bizarre pro-Brexit rant a few weeks ago in which he simultaneously inadvertantly revealed he thought continental educational standards were far superior to British ones.

All of them spent too much time in metropolitan London/BBC studios.

Chris Waddle is a Brexiteer. I believe Gazza would like Britain to remain in the single market.

Mogg advocating sabotage. Very grown up from the principled politician.

Some good responses

For all the talk about all the money he made, Moggie is very much the dullard and it’s way to see why he never held high office.

I wonder how much money moggy would actually have made of his own back if the tide went out.
Half these hedge funds are ponzi scheme variants.

“We hold all the cards”

He is but I think he has the sense to realise that the shite he carries on with only works if he’s sniping from the sidelines and that if he had any power or responsibility he’d be shown up. Boris doesn’t have that sense.

Mogg has made a show of himself over the last few weeks, what with him praising concentration camps on Question Time, advocating voting for slavery, and admiringly quoting a German neo-Nazi.

He’s Stephen Yaxley-Lennon in a top hat.

Mogg isn’t an idiot, he is moderately intelligent. He just has no principles. His strength was being able to hide that better than Johnson. In the last couple of weeks he has lost that principled position.

He’s not half as clever as he thinks he is, nor as was widely portrayed by a fawning media. He’s surprisingly ill informed, and surprisingly rattleable for someone who’s major front is sang froid.

Look who supported a second referendum

He generally has had the smarts in dealing with the media well. Stuck to a couple of core points that he swung back to.

You can see the pressure he’s under. Obviously knows he fucked up on voting for May’s deal last week just to get a cabinet position promised by Johnson. Tweeting out an AfF politician was a stupid move. He is the type of guy that would have been going on about how great the U.K. was for not electing extremists like they have in France and Germany.
