Here’s Best For Britain’s Message To Those Who Say We Are Undermining Brexit<\/b>
\nToday the Daily Mail attacked Best for Britain, jumping on the bandwagon of the Daily Telegraph.\u00a0 The Mail\u00a0in its usual style comes at me, our funders and our organisation all guns blazing and now their splash has pride of place on our wall.\u00a0 IDS, the thinking man<\/a>\u2019s Andrew-Bridgen-rent-a-quote, shrieks \u201chand the money back\u201d.<\/p>\n

My message to IDS and his ilk is this: thanks for your comments, but we won\u2019t be intimidated by the likes of you and your band of ideological friends who are trying to subvert the very meaning of democracy. We have the right to at least a Parliamentary vote at the end of this, and we must push MPs to do what\u2019s Best for Britain and ask people for the vote.<\/p>\n

For me, democracy did not end on the day after the referendum. My view was the same before, the same the day of the referendum and same the day after. The process of leaving the EU is democratic. The government got a mandate to trigger negotiations, but not to sign them off-\u00a0 they did not get a blank cheque.<\/p>\n

The money that George Soros and thousands of small donors have donated, and continue to donate is making a massive difference.\u00a0 That cash goes straight to front line campaigning.\u00a0 At Best for Britain we have been campaigning to win a meaningful vote on Brexit, which we helped win, and to keep all options on the table, including staying in the European Union. That\u2019s why we\u2019re\u00a0crowdfunding\u00a0to make sure that our campaign reaches as many people as possible – we don\u2019t have much time for our voices to be heard.<\/p>\n

At the core, our campaigning is about empowering people to feel confident in taking a more active part in their country and their democracy. Our view is perhaps the most democratic: everyone, no matter what their view, has a right to be heard, free from intimidation by people or press that may disagree with them.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve held training sessions on how to be more democratically engaged in towns and cities across the country including Hull, Manchester, Doncaster and Bridgend, Wales because we believe everyone has a right to speak their mind. Over 1,000 people have attended, deeply worried about their future and the future of our children and grandchildren. We don\u2019t believe that\u2019s sinister or wrong. In fact, we can\u2019t think of anything more patriotic than worrying about our country\u2019s future.<\/p>\n

So if very publicly trying to help people take a more active role in our society is somehow a \u201csecret plot\u201d to ensure all voices are heard on the greatest issue of a generation then we will wear that badge with honour. Democracy is never done and the moment we stop defending the rights of everyone to say what they believe – even when we disagree – is an even darker future that none of us want to be a part of.<\/p>\n

So this weekend the team will be out campaigning and working tirelessly to make sure the public is heard.\u00a0 Brexit has failed the test and will make Britain poorer, less secure and that is not what people were sold.\u00a0 If this was a product it would be done under the Trades Descriptions Act.\u00a0 People should have the right to change their minds \u2013 that is what we are fighting for at Best for Britain, I urge you to join us and together we will beat the Brexiteer forces that threaten to ruin Britain. Join us, your country needs you.<\/p>\n
