Ever since the Brexit referendum, the CEP has been attempting to
highlight how England and English concerns have been ignored by the British
government's discussion on Brexit.
The only time that the people of England were consulted about
their views was at the Brexit ballot box.
Whatever your view, as a member or supporter of the CEP, is on Brexit (Remainer or Brexiteer), Theresa May as the head of the British government has refused to create an English First Minister or English Brexit Minister during the Brexit process and that is not acceptable.
Below is an article and a radio interview that the CEP gave and e-mailed out yesterday. (Please leave a comment on the article and forward the picture to friends and family )
Whatever Theresa May has been saying about protecting the integrity of the UK, she has been out maneuvered by the E.U.. If you ignore all her paraphernalia about standing up for the U.K. as 'a whole', she is carving a new U.K. border down the Irish sea. If Theresa May's Brexit withdrawal agreement is accepted, then she, as the British Prime Minister, would have naively given the Republic of Ireland a golden opportunity to call for a border poll that would mean the island of Ireland could once again become united.
Who, then, would be
able to ignore that the U.K. would no longer properly exist if it
excludes Northern Ireland?
Did she really believe that
the Irish republicans would not notice the D.U.P. recoiling from being
rejected and sacrificed as lambs on the Conservative and Unionist
party's altar to the E.U.? If the head of the Unionist Government is
willing to accept different terms for an integral part of the U.K., then it is
not rocket science to think that her Brexit withdrawal agreement might have
a domino effect on the other nations across the U.K.. Be
assured, Irish independence would be the beginning of the
end for the U.K. (as we all know it), because it would, essentially, be
jettisoning part of itself when Northern Ireland goes! But that might also
usher in a new era of English politics and a desire to see England being fairly
treated. What have English patriots now got to lose by creating a new
border down the Irish sea - because the British Prime Minister just
completely ignored any call for an English voice throughout the whole Brexit
process anyway?
