The gospel according to Obama: President preaches at the British people over EU

What an extraordinary sight, Obama issuing threats over the EU referendum. He has certainly pissed off a lot of people, indeed it may well backfire.

US President Barack Obama is in Britain for a farewell three day visit
He and wife Michelle lunched at Windsor with the Queen and Prince Philip
Cameron and Obama were locked in talks for more than an hour today
The President set out his strong support for the EU in a press conference
Vote Leave immediately hit back at 'orchestrated' Obama intervention
Obama's answers sparked speculation they had been written in No 10 after it included typically British phrases like 'queue' instead of 'line'

Mr Obama launched his pro-EU blitz with an opnion column on the benefits of European Union membership in the Daily TelegraphBarack Obama tonight warned Britain would be at the 'back of the queue' for a trade deal with America if it quits the EU. In an extraordinary intervention standing alongside David Cameron at the Foreign Office, the US President warned there was no prospect of a deal 'any time soon'. Mr Obama defended his right to comment on Britain's June 23 poll despite claims from Leave campaigners that he was being 'hypocritical' and had 'double standards'.

The President insisted his remarks, which have been long planned by Mr Cameron's In campaign, were not a 'threat' to Britain. But the speech enraged campaigners who support Brexit, with Tory MPs immediately warning that drumming up support from foreign presidents was 'not a good look' for Mr Cameron.

But Justice Minister and Vote Leave spokesman Dominic Raab immediately hit back at Mr Obama. He said: 'The President made clear that uncontrolled immigration into the EU is a threat to national security. I agree - that is why it is safer to take back control so that we can stop terror suspects from Europe coming into the UK. 'He argued that he thinks it is in America's interests for the UK to stay in the EU but what is good for US politicians is not necessarily good for the British people.

'We want more international cooperation after we Vote Leave, but the EU is not fit for purpose, and cannot cope with the multiple crises we face like terrorism, Syria and mass migration. 'The US would not dream of opening its border with Mexico, so it is hypocritical for President Obama to insist that we do the same with Europe.'

Mr Raab's intervention concluded what could prove to be the biggest day in the referendum campaign:


  • London Mayor Boris Johnson hit back with his own remarks in The Sun - but the Tory MP sparked a fierce row of his own with a claim that the 'part Kenyan' US president had an 'ancestral dislike of the British empire'
  • In a choreographed day of activity surrounding the President's visit, Mr Obama flew to Windsor Castle on Marine One for lunch with The Queen and Prince Philip. The 94-year-old Duke drove Mr Obama, his wife Michelle and the Queen to the Castle
  • The US President then swept into Downing Street in a 19-vehicle convoy shortly after 3pm for an extended meeting with Mr Cameron. After a warm greeting on the steps of No 10, the two leaders spent more than an hour on wide-ranging talks
  • At 5pm, Mr Cameron and Mr Obama emerged from No 10, crossed Downing Street to the Foreign Office and launched a passionate joint defence of EU membership
  • The claims by Mr Obama enraged Brexit campaigner who accused No 10 of orchestrating the whole event to intimidate Britons into voting In on June 23

The worst part is when he started talking about the American dead in two world wars and threatening that future trade deals would be put to the back of the queue. That really pissed off a lot of people.

its worse than that. He said if UK left the EU they would go to the back of the line regarding trade agreements.

He made it clear that despite the UK standing with us in the Iraq war the special relationship alliance is over and. Whether the UK leaves the EU or not they will not forget obamas betrayal.

I know libs love to defend master obama but he just killed the UK-US alliance.

If anybody wants to know why so many in the UK want to leave the EU, then here is one extremely good reason.

[h=1]Extremists free to travel to UK because EU states cannot agree on the definition of a 'foreign fighter' [/h]

Nobody is contesting the fact that the UK has its share of xenophobic morons. It doesn't have enough though, we are reliably informed, to drag the country out into an exposed position totally reliant upon US support.

By the way, was the expression Obama used ' queue ' or ' line ' ? Fool.
 
The US administration as a whole won't forget the attack on it by the vile Brexit Tory PM-in-waiting, Boris Johnson either.

He used queue which implied that his speech was at least partly written by number 10, cunt!

The increasingly-irrelevant UK had better get used to taking orders from the senior partner in the "special relationship".

What good does the tiny, impoverished island do? British troops were useless according to some US commanders, so who needs their lapdog support?

Lesser Britain is practically a third world backwater. The slimy Limeys should be grateful for the tourist dollars Americans fling their way and do as they're told.

If you think they're whingeing now, wait until President Trump takes office. He won't forget that the shit Brits wanted to ban him.

'Get used to'? Don't be bloody ridiculous - as you know, we have been an American colony since the Marshal Plan bought up our Government. The racist splutter indulged in by you Nazis would tell us that, if anyone were tory or otherwise stupid enough to doubt it.
 
Disgraceful, Mr Obama: Threats. A cynical attempt to exploit the Allies' war dead. Former Tory chancellor NORMAN LAMONT on President's shameful bid to bully Britain

Let me say at the outset that I am an admirer of Barack Obama, writes Norman Lamont. But if Obama is wisely cautious about intervention in the Middle East, why on Earth does he think it appropriate to blunder into Britain’s referendum on the EU?

Most of the world is anti-British.

The list of places Britain hasn't invaded, oppressed or exploited is a short one.

You and your tiny, impoverished island are getting a long-overdue comeuppance which is richly deserved.

Whereas you shits have taken up the imperial burden - which a lot of US actually opposed.

Obama ought to act with far less hubris than he does, after all it was he that allowed Daesh to take over a large swathe of Syria and Iraq! He caused the migrant crisis by washing his hands of the Middle East and pulling all the troops out. and leaving Libya to its fate!!

Tch, tch- so aggressive in humiliation.

The Obama intervention has- in all likelihood- sunk the Brexit campaign. Brits still see Americans as friendly cousins, no matter which dumbass leader gets elected by dumbass American voters.

Remember, the UK doesn't even have a Constitution. It needs European legal oversight, and the US Constitutional example, to help protect Brits from dispassionate and corrupt UK government.

The fact is, Britain is on the world stage.

Don't like being talked down to?

The peoples your imperialistic lot oppressed for centuries felt the same, probably, but they were powerless.

Now you are the powerless ones.

How the once-mighty have fallen.

The rest of the world is tired of your pretense to relevance.

Call me a fool and I will double down on the insults, cunt. As always you are wrong, we gave the modern world and especially the US, Australia, Canada and New Zealand our common law. We don't have one document that is called a Constitution but to say that none exists is puerile bullshit.
