webfact Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 Uri Geller urges mass-telepathy against Brexit FILE PHOTO: Uri Geller poses for a photograph in Jaffa, next to Tel Aviv, Israel January 23, 2017. Picture taken January 23, 2017. REUTERS/Baz Ratner/File Photo TEL AVIV (Reuters) - Spoon-bending psychic Uri Geller wants to bend British Prime Minister Theresa May's will against Brexit using mass-telepathy. From his home in Israel, Geller - who is also a British citizen and a former resident of May's Maidenhead constituency - wrote an open letter to the prime minister urging her to block Britain's exit from the European Union. Now he wants Britons to join him in twice-daily bursts of telepathy directed at the Conservative leader, in the hope of inspiring her to call a second Brexit referendum. "Maybe I'm a bit too late but at least I'm trying my best to use my paranormal abilities, because I'm very concerned that Theresa May will step out of EU," Geller told Reuters. "That would be tragic. It would be catastrophic, especially for young people. There'll be economic chaos. I'm calling it a catastrophe and I feel it ... call it extra-sensory perception." Geller came to prominence in Britain with a series of appearances on prime time television when he pulled off stunts such as bending spoons, claiming the only force he used was the power of the mind.

ThaiBunny Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 I thought the satirical site News Thump had the best response to this story - Theresa May has confided in close colleagues that she is considering revoking Article 50 to stop Brexit after reaching the end of her tether due to all of her spoons bending. https://newsthump.com/2019/03/24/theresa-may-on-verge-of-cancelling-brexit-after-all-of-her-spoons-bend/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is getting desperate when the elite have to rioll out this guy to make people change their minds. What next nookie the beer or Orville.

Entertaining? He's claiming to use telepathy when it's just sleight of hand! Why wouldn't I insult someone not telling the truth? If it was a magician saying something like this, then you'd be aware of an entertaining trick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps Uri Geller's going to use his telepathic telepathy to 'bend' Brexit into a U-turn and become 'Remain'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'd do well here with the gullible who believe in that stuff. He needs some way to market his sleight of hand with the spoon-bending - perhaps linking it to religion. He'd have a cult following within an hour. About twenty-five years ago I went to a large house in Bangkok to see a 'monk' who was exercising exorcising evil spirits out of the gullible possessed. At one point the 'monk' appeared to put his hand in the mouth of one of the terminally stupid, and produced an egg. He cracked the egg and a small bird flew out and around the room. One down, there were plenty more to go. I really, really, wanted to applaud to show my appreciation of the trick. Girlfriend at the time stopped me. Everyone else was impressed and believed the whole 'show' was genuine. <sigh> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
