Europhiliac View – Ask The People? That’s ‘Playing With Fire!’

Europhilia, like demophobia, is not a form of mental aberration unique to the UK elite.

Another shocking outburst hit the headlines last week from Vienna, where, exemplifying those who abhor the common people’s right to self-determination, a far-left Green in Austria was in extravagant rant mode.

————-

Alexander Van der Bellen’s short-lived ‘victory’ in the June Presidential election was overturned by the country’s highest court after major irregularities were uncovered.

Now he and the FPO candidate, Norbert Hofer, are fighting a re-run in October.

Alexander Van der Bellen

==============

Maybe this Green geezer is simply ticked off with the nuisance value that voting represents to his chances of achieving his ambitions.

Because, please note, it’s not just the idea of an Austrian exit from the EUSSR that Bellen abhors, but the very idea of ASKING the Austrian electorate what they think about that idea.

FPO’s Hofer

==

Herr Hofer has only mooted a referendum, saying that if Brussels rules continues to develop along current dangerously authoritarian lines, his fellow-citizens deserve to be consulted on the issue.  

“…and if Turkey joins, then for me it would be time to say that Austrians must also be asked (about membership),” Hofer said after the “Brexit” vote.

Austrian far-right ‘playing with fire’ over EU referendum

Yet even this basic acknowledgement of democratic principle provoked a bout of characteristic Bellen bleating.

Even to think about escape from rule by the EuroCommissars…

…if the patriot party “are going to fantasise about an EU exit – they are playing with fire!”

============

So there’s the Left’s October platform, just so Austrians are under no illusions.

If voters imagine it’s their country, not the property of the rotten political establishment (who are lining up to back Bellen’s bid) then…

Schweigen Sie, Untermenschen!

…

Not since Hitler’s 1938 Anschluss, the expansion of Nazi rule which annexed Austria to the Reich, has naked hatred for democracy had such currency in public debate.

The Fourth Reich mirrors the Third.

And just a little more insight into why this re-run, for a mostly ceremonial position, is said to be raising concern that apathy could result in a lower turnout than last time (about 73 percent).

The biased journos on EU Observer ( and I say biased since they perpetually slur Hofer as far-right but never ID Bellen as the far-left fanatic he is) don’t explain why lower turnout enhances Herr Hofer’s chances.

But they fear it could be a development that could play into the hands of the far right.

Maybe their bias arises because they see themselves among the ranks of the righteous in the apartheid-like ‘divide’ they describe.

The electorate is divided between educated elites and the working class, the city and the countryside, liberal EU idealists and nationalist EU critics.

Elites are not so much educated as indoctrinated, otherwise how could they write such pinko piffle, as if ‘idealists’ can only be found on the Europhiliac side.

But never mind. Their minions on the EUObs pay-roll staff, by their final words…

…the outcome of this election will determine whether Austria is fortified as a bastion of EU values, or becomes another domino waiting to fall.

…may have given some European readers an incentive to take a late summer break in beautiful Austria…

…

….

…and lend a hand to the FPO campaigners.

But girls should bring pepper-spray….
