Michael Gove has dismissed the latest NBER findings showing that #Brexit has reduced GDP by 6–8%.
He may still believe that people in this country have “had enough of experts,” but the reality is that people have had enough of Brexit.

The good people of Hull turned out today to demonstrate that our streets don’t belong to the far-right racists.
They belong to the vast majority of decent people who welcome refugees and asylum seekers.
Hull is, and will always be, a City of Sanctuary.

When was the last time you heard a politician in the media asked anything like-
-How will you make sure asylum seekers can reach the UK safely & refugees are protected?
-How will you make sure people coming to this country to work or study are treated equally & with respect?
I cannot remember.

A mainstream “journalist” calling for a British MP to be deported. Is it because I’m Muslim? Next time, just say it with your chest.

We have three main choices:
1. We can ask the EU if we can rejoin the Single Market.
2. We can ask the EU if we can rejoin the whole EU.
3. We can leave things as they are and continue our decline.
The majority of people have decided on either 1 or 2. It's time now for the politicians to catch up.
