#3 Brexit was the start of a preference cascade. It was documented as such by Herr Blogmeister early last year. People saw that they were not alone in their disgust with the nature of the elites and the direction they were steering. |

#2 The centralization pendulum swung way, way over to one side since the end of the Cold War. Now it must return because things have become organically out of whack. The problem is, so many millions in the West have hitched their stars to centralization and realize that a return to sensible subsidiarity will not improve their lives that they will fight tooth and claw to keep things out of whack. |

#1 in many ways i think that's right, if only because it gave Mr Trump extra insight into the massive wave of sentiment towards sovereignty, and extra confidence when it looked like all the polls were against him. Bless Nigel Farage, the Man Who Saved Britain One voice alone is small, but if another hears it and lifts up their voice, and another and another then sooner or later it swells to be a huge strong choir enough to shake the foundations of the world |
