The Notebook: Brexit has been a failure, and politicians can’t ignore it forever cityam.com/the-notebook-b…

Brexit was won by a bait and switch marketing scam. Loudly promise one thing, and the moment the customer has paid, indignantly protest that you had offered nothing of the sort.

A vote won by lies is a vote won undemocratically. Brexit was won by the worst abuses of democracy in…

Just as Labour looks set to end 14 years of catastrophic Conservative rule, up pop two Labour members who would seemingly prefer the Tories to win.

Here's Dominic Cummings admitting that it was illicit data mining and an online propaganda blitz after Jo Cox's muder (when both sides had agreed to stop campaigning) that brought about the Leave referendum win. We now know it was financed illegally too

John Curtice explains the paradox in Labour's voter base.

They're attracting Leave voters, but generally it's those who've changed their minds and would now vote Remain.

And overall their voters are around 75% pro-EU.

Makes their stance madness.

Back in the day, the leading lights of Andrew Neil and Andrea Leadsom appeared to have no conception of non-tariff barriers to trade…

…and all the paperwork and costs that go with not having harmonised standards.

I’m sure they’re aware now.

My view of these #LocalElections2024 results is very simple (although not being spoken about much):

#Brexit was a #populist policy to get #Boris Johnson to power. It subsequently destroyed the #Tory party to become a confused right-wing cabal.

#Redwall voters are angry, with…

I’m honoured that the people of York and North Yorkshire have put their trust in me. Thank you for electing me to be your The Labour Party mayor. I can’t wait to get started. 🌹

Who’d have ever thought that Boris Johnson would believe that his own rules don’t apply to him?

Democracy is fragile.
A message to all #EU citizens in the UK.
Don't forget to vote in the #Europeanelections from June 6-9. We British may have chosen to silence our voice but yours can still be heard. You are entitled to vote. #Useyourvote or others will decide for you.
