Jean-Claude Juncker represents the worst part of EU superiority that pushed so many to vote Leave
To the EU chief, all Brexit voters are racists - but we know just how wrong he is
TO the odious EU chief Jean-Claude Juncker, Brexit voters are just racists.
So he sees immigrants being targeted and killed as the inevitable consequence of us choosing independence.
By contrast, Europeans “can never accept Polish workers being murdered in the streets of Essex”, he says.
We have news for the pompous oaf.
Britain doesn’t accept it either.
And we’ll stack up OUR continuing welcome for people from all corners of the globe against any other country’s.
The Harlow killer represents no one.
Juncker’s speech to the EU contained much else to dislike. Such as his drive for an EU army, the one we were told would never happen.
And his determination to bar the UK from the single market if we control immigration.
Indeed, just the sort of blinkered stubbornness that made Britain vote Leave.
And each day we continue to defy him by thriving — as the latest record-breaking post-referendum job figures prove.
Plane stupid
WHY didn’t the judge wipe away the smirks of the Black Lives Matter runway protesters and bang them up for six months?
The idiots ironically thanked “white privilege” for their derisory conditional discharges over the City Airport chaos.
It was surely more that they are posh eco-warriors for whom Judge Elizabeth Roscoe admitted having great empathy.
Their real offence, she seemed to believe, was not in disrupting flights for business people but for those “who may have had similar beliefs to yourselves”.
But, she added: “It’s quite clear you are individuals who care deeply.”
These wasters, or their parents, are rich enough to have paid a huge fine.
But a prison stretch would have properly punished them — and deterred others.
Nuclear dud
THERESA May was right to hesitate over Hinkley Point. It is troubling that she looks likely to give it the nod anyway.
The nuclear plant is fraught with risk and relies on French and Chinese cash plus an obscene subsidy from bill-payers.
Smaller, cheaper gas-fired plants could be built faster and produce more power — and WE would own them.
The PM was right to scrutinise this vast project instead of just signing it off.
But its flaws are surely now obvious.
Quality finish
IT’S easy to brand young Premier League stars overpaid brats. Often it’s justified.
But credit where it’s due. Four Man Utd players spotted an appeal on behalf of a dying Reds fan — and drove to his council house to grant his final wish.
Well played, lads.
