Brexit isolated us, now is the time for closer relations with the EU.
Graham Leadbitter: "A false hope deal (Brexit) that has left us far away from our European friends, desperately clinging to a US administration who doesn't care about our national interests."

Something to do with a weird ailment called Brexitomerta - which means people are clinically unable to discuss Brexit, let alone recognise it as the chaotic (and snowballing) economic, moral & practical disaster it so clearly is, for fear of offending the ever-dwindling unicorn farming community.

It isn’t just the chancellor. Labour need to stop hiding behind the sofa and explain the cost of Brexit. BBC and other media outlets need to do the same. The public already understand, but our politicians don’t acknowledge it.

Labour cower behind the sofa and continue the #BrexitOmerta while making unpopular choices to manage the impact of Brexit on UK economy.
Farage spouts lies and somehow is the beneficiary of the damage Brexit caused.
It makes no sense.

Why Labour isn’t willing to highlight the cost of #Brexit and look to rejoin the customs union to reduce bureaucracy and encourage growth is beyond me.

Labour’s #BrexitOmerta isn’t going to align more of the public to rejoining the EU. It also lets Farage off the hook for the economic and other damage his flagship hard Brexit policy caused. A full rejoin may take time, but those advocating to reverse Brexit are not the problem.

Once again no mention of the impact of Brexit on the UK economy’s anaemic growth. No attempt to pin the problems on Farage. Standard fare from UK politicians and media.

Farage’s solution - the hardest possible Brexit - led directly to the small boats issue. #BrexitHasFailed comprehensively. Yet he is never challenged. The #BrexitOmerta still means politicians don’t link the #Brexit £40bn hit a year to UK public finance to cuts and poor services.

Yet Labour won’t link the £40bn govt finance black hole with the £100bn lopped off the UK economy due to Brexit or do anything to repair the damage of Brexit. #BrexitBrokeBritain and Labour are part of the #BrexitOmerta not showing leadership

In my unasked opinion Labour and Starmer’s unwillingness to link UK Govt finance £40bn black hole with the £40bn impact of Brexit is what opens the door to Farage. Labour need to stop the #BrexitOmerta

You can only make the best of Brexit by reversing it. £100bn hot to UK economy = Govt finances in a mess = tough choices and cuts. But never acknowledged by politicians. #BrexitOmerta
