The language of the Mail mirrors exactly that used on 1930s Germany. Der Wille des Volkes was one device that Hitler used to gain power (supported by the Mail). This is not trivial, IMO

So unfair. The Nazis blamed everything on foreigners. Used the right wing press to call for enemies of the people to be dealt with as traitors Incited supporters to attack and kill opposing voices &removed the political processes that blocked them Not like Brexiters at ALL

Used populist Referendums to bypass parliament and give power directly to the executive

Here is an expression of the German "will of the people" from the 1936 referendum. Note the absence of other candidates.pic.twitter.com/IUxYPhbJdz

When you try & ride roughshod over independent judiciary and sovereignty of parliament with ever increasing hysteria and screams of "The People's Will" you get dangerously close to violence and mob rule. We had a vote. Its being implemented. But parliament is sovereign. Calm down

They always think we are all anti-European. Nothing could be further from the truth.

If i am not much mistaken the language argument was conclusively settled back in 1945, although i do speak the language & have German friends, one wonders what point your attempting to make exactly!, as a footnote my friends from Germany would also leave Eu given the vote!.

I quite enjoyed hearing Germans chanting ‘Weir Sind das volk’ when they brought the Berlin Wall down.

I don't speak German because British Servicemen won two world wars to prevent it!
-
I think the Russians had more than a bit to do with that....
-
I doubt it very much! It was the remain campaign that lied about EVERYTHING and have been proven wrong every time!
-
So the Russians did nothing on the Western Front? Mmmm.
-
WTF has the western front to do with this? Were you born an idiot or did you have to practice?
-
Did you not realise it was not only British servicemen that helped win two wars but others too. Or realise that those who suffered most losses were the Russians particularly on their western front? Werr you born a tool or are you just developing it as an art form?
-
Why are you intent on starting an argument Maybe you just like trolling Now go and change you nappy stick your dummy in your gob and sod off
-
I'm not intent on starting an argument. However, when little Johnny Englander starts bleating 'we won the war huzzah for Brexit' makes me think that a) you should get your facts right and b) show a little humility. Alas with you being a typical Brexshiteer, I can't it happening.
