Iβm not interested in the βoh we canβt stop Brexit nowβ argument. Leaders stop wars, for godβs sake. Big decisions get reversed all the time.
This is why it feels so much like a nation of children.
The English are struggling to come to terms with the choices they've made because they never confronted the consequences.
This is Brexit in reality. https://twitter.com/Joffney/status/1353466358508498944
@LanceForman @MarlboroughOf I tried to order some English wine from your website.
Iβm in mainland Europe. There appears to be a problem with delivery - no shipping options available.
Is this the Brexit you ordered?
The bill for Boris Johnsonβs Brexit is coming in and itβs punishingly steep | Andrew Rawnsley http://dlvr.it/RrDHp9
Yesterday's Sunday Times revealed that Boris Johnson's government doctored a video in order to hide the fact that, on 2 March, the PM was urging Brits to go about "business as usual". Well, here's the part they cut out. via @brexit_sham
The more often I see this, the more insane Brexit appears. If that were possible.

Where is the toad Gove? He's probably in flack avoiding mode, keeping his head down as all his lies are exposed and all his plans - such as they were - turn to dust.

IRE was never going to be bullied by GB into Irexit and reassociating with UK which was the unwavering belief of some of my Brexiteer former colleagues. I was confident they were utterly wrong and clearly did not understand modern IRE and my views have been totally confirmed. https://twitter.com/JohnOBrennan2/status/1353333252308791296
Ireland did not want Brexit, but the response to it has been very impressive. Still lots of issues to be navigated but lots of progress too, especially in establishment of new transport routes and enhancements of existing services. https://twitter.com/irishtimesvideo/status/1353282650845413376
@DimitriosGian @JMPSimor @Telegraph @maryhoneyball @julie4north @brexit_sham @SimonFRCox @JulianPetley @MurphyEvidence @SarahLudford @StevePeers The article shows a phenomenal ignorance about German politics & culture: right from calling our Chancellor βthe vicarβs daughterβ ! Thereβs also something cowardly about giving out blame rather than owning the home-grown proactive right wing drive across that Brexit cliff edge
'Welcome to the Brexit'
Perhaps a little more contrition Lance and a lot less of the gaslighting?
I thought Brexit was a national sovereignty triumph for the @Telegraph - now it's presented as a "disastrous legacy" (of Merkel, not of the UK politicians who derailed the country's future in EU).

Problem you face is you can only lie and deceive and spin and graft and misinform up until the point when nobody can ever believe a single word you, your party, its leader, his cabinet, the comms, his PA, the PR, his court journos, his family and even the poor @Number10cat says.

Seeing they haven't tweeted for a couple of weeks you'd think the M.I.A. 'Fishing for Leave' would be all over this like a rash!
