John Major's outburst will only quicken the screeching downfall of our elite

Three years after Britain voted to leave the EU by a million strong majority, John Major popped up on BBC Radio 4’s Today programme again. Having denounced the EU referendum result repeatedly, Sir John now announced that if Boris Johnson became Prime Minister, he – Major – would be prepared to take legal action to prevent the government proroguing Parliament.

DouglasCarswell Nothing like a bit of hypocrisy from DouglasCarswell, talks a big game about Parliamentary sovereignty but willing to ignore it if it means getting his way.

DouglasCarswell Mr Carswell, when you label a Brixton born O level failure who came from a more humble background than Mrs Thatcher, as part of an elite then it only confirms you have lost the plot.

DouglasCarswell I think John Major likes the sound of this own voice too much!!!!

DouglasCarswell Does anyone listen to John Major? He was a terrible PM and since his departure has largely been ignored - so why drag him out now? He is irrelevant

DouglasCarswell Go back into retirement, John!

DouglasCarswell So we should look forward to.the eclipse of the Elite (whoever the hell that means) and welcome their replacement by the spivs, arrogant, shady, media loving and unprincipled politicians who increasingly inhabit our politics. What utter tosh.

DouglasCarswell And it can’t come quick enough!

DouglasCarswell ....says a paper that employs Alexander Boris Defefel Johnson as a columnist...and explains them away as a bit nonsense not to be taken seriously..Johnson a fully paid up member of the establishment and the elite..Darroch..a council estate boy that worked hard....

DouglasCarswell Hmmmmm I see someone is using the elite label because it’s become fashionable to tap into the anti elite message. And relatively speaking, John Major is far from part of the elite (he says pointing at BorisJohnson who epitomises eliteness)

DouglasCarswell I dont agree

DouglasCarswell Yes dear

DouglasCarswell Painfully ignorant fare. No serious newspaper would give you a job.

DouglasCarswell ❤️❤️❤️🇪🇺🇪🇺🇪🇺

DouglasCarswell Fool

DouglasCarswell John Major made Poor Decisions when he was PM and he still making poor decisions. Obviously undemocratic

DouglasCarswell Deservedly with their handling of the Brexit crisis and once again the boot-licking of the American administration. They are utterly out of this world and live in the past.

DouglasCarswell Not elite

DouglasCarswell Elite

DouglasCarswell So state educated John Major is the elite but Eton educated Bullingdon club member BorisJohnson isn’t. We are so fucked

DouglasCarswell As long as it includes moronic, clueless and out of touch editorial staff and columnists at newspapers and magazines like yours who are paid hundreds of thousands just for the colour of their skin.

DouglasCarswell We can’t have anyone talking sense and doing things for the good of the whole country can we. Shame on you John Major (keep it up).

DouglasCarswell And Alexander Boris de Pfeffel Johnson isn't part of our elite?

DouglasCarswell Blah blahbblah... Douglas carousel blah blah... - tool!!

DouglasCarswell Sounds good

DouglasCarswell Gooooood........goooooooooooooooood..

DouglasCarswell I’m amazed that anyone who voted Remain is now branded ‘elite’. Does this vindictive pass for journalism nowadays?

DouglasCarswell The sooner the better

DouglasCarswell It's pretty reasonable to stop an unelected prime minister from avoiding the scrutiny of an elected Parliament.

DouglasCarswell Define ‘elite’. I can define a moron when I see one

DouglasCarswell Edwina Curry's outburst was even louder

DouglasCarswell Crikey the grubs are all coming out of the woodwork today.

DouglasCarswell This is an excellent article DouglasCarswell He is a disgrace.

DouglasCarswell Just for the record GuidoFawkes

DouglasCarswell Jeez - can the Telegraph stoop any lower? Douglas Carswell - you are having a laff.

DouglasCarswell John Major - onanist.
