You can’t get the Brexit people voted for because it doesn’t exist. It was a con. A prejudiced, arrogant fantasy created by a cynical campaign of dishonesty.

This is however the relentless, tedious Brexit reality. An ongoing national scandal. A betrayal of a country by its politicians and media.
I don’t think we’ve got the Brexit people voted for. Our traders face a daily nightmare getting goods across the border.

Here’s one example of just why. Toby Ovens of Broughton Transport told us about the 26 stamps he needs on loads of forms. To move one trailer across the Channel…

Fighting the Brexit reset means scrapping Erasmus again and telling businesses that red tape, queues and cost are the price they should all pay for Farage’s petulant prejudice.

What a very tiresome bore of a man shouting at us in his soiled Brexit pants.

Meanwhile… in The Times… Reform is having another of its hissy fits about the mere suggestion of joining the EU Customs Union.
And while we have such infantile, name-calling, EU-phobic politicians eyeing power, we cannot be trusted to be team players. And we will continue to fail.

Staggering - the effort and resource *still* being invested in keeping the Brexit shitshow on the road.
No one’s held to account.
No one’s fallen on their sword.
No one’s got the guts to really speak out.
So, on we go, protecting this huge and ruinous lie, because telling the truth is too difficult.

Farage hopes he can breeze into power without scrutiny. But his racism, corrupt donations, shady links to Russia and MAGA… make it harder for him to hide. And his tantrum reactions to being challenged reveal him for the nasty inadequate he really is.

All of the UK is pretending that the UK secretly passed the equality act in 2010 that required a national bathroom ban along with a full ban of trans people from society and it was only discovered fifteen years later. It's obscene.

Your reminder that the EU offered to freeze Brexit talks in 2020 so we could focus on Covid but Johnson said no. He then fucked up both: partying while 23,000 needlessly died & did a Brexit so shit the economic impact (-8% GDP) is worse than predictions he described as “the work of gloomsters”

The only Legitimate Concerns about asylum seekers are concerns for their well being and safety. For a rich country like ours to incessantly whine about these people as if we are their victims is perhaps the single most pathetic spectacle in British politics over the past quarter century.

This is as bad as anything proposed by Reform.
