SNOWFLAKES

David Davis is a bit miffed that the EU is proposing sanctions if we fail to comply with the terms of the transition deal (HERE). It almost seems as if he intends to deliberately circumvent the rules during the transition and he's worried the EU will find out. After years and years of anti EU rhetoric and insults levelled at Brussels and the EU institutions he seems to have suddenly acquired a very thin skin. 

The same thing has happened with Theresa May's former aide Nick Timothy and an article he co-authored in The Telegraph HERE about George Soros. It attacks Mr Soros for "secretly" plotting to "thwart" Brexit. It doesn't mention that Soros is Jewish although many people think this would be abundantly clear to the kind of people the article was aimed at.

The Telegraph and Timothy are outraged that anyone might think they're anti Semitic HERE. But look at the language they use. It is a "secret plot", according to The Telegraph, but he has made a public donation and campaigning against something is not to "thwart" it but trying to persuade people not to act against their own best interests. Guy Verhofstadt described the original article it as spreading far right propaganda (HERE) which I think it is.

Let us not forget Mr Sorors donated £400,000. Aaron Banks donated about £5 million to the leave campaign. The DUP received £435,000 and spent it on pro-Brexit adverts in London, but we still don't know where the money came from. You would think The Telegraph might investigate this but don't hold your breath.

We shouldn't forget how the rabid, anti-EU press would react if it looked like Brexit won't happen. 

The recent attacks on Mr Soros would seem like nothing.
