"What continues to mystify is the way that worshippers of Margaret Thatcher on the right of the Conservative party have turned against her. After the two-to-one vote in favour of Remain in 1975, Thatcher joined in “rejoicing over this excellent result”. She added: “Also, one cannot let this occasion...

If we had another vote- who would call for it? The government? Parliament? There is hope: Mother. "You might wonder why May stays, surrounded by enemies pronouncing her “dead in the water”. She sees it as “her duty”, they say. I wish we knew how she will see her duty if she emerges from the negotia...

Ellie Mae O Hagan has Mother's plight summed up nicely: "Tories can’t have it both ways. They can’t call Labour a threat to the country, then beg to work with it for the good of the country.

As the reality of just how messy Brexit will be sinks in, I sense all the energy draining out of the Brexit process. It may take years but I doubt it will happen in the end.

The CBI, favouring the single market, are an appalling bunch of unpatriotic lefties, just like the BBC.

It's almost as if a large part of the UK has all of a sudden woken up to the fact that the Tories have f**ked the country... And thought they'd vote for a party lead by someone even more pro brexit. Bizarre, because up to that point the majority of people where making decisions based on a good unde...
