A star is born - They say 'cometh the hour cometh the man' - listen to this brilliant Bishop Auckland farmer...
"On referendum night we went to bed as Great Britain and woke up as Little Britain"
ITV joins the OBR, ONS, OECD, Bank of England and the FT, in reporting that Brexit has caused catastrophic damage to the UK, costing the Treasury £40bn a year in lost tax revenue due to leaving the EU.
Second quarter UK economic output was £33bn lower than it would have been had the UK voted to stay in the EU, costing the Treasury £40 billion a year in lost revenue which means that tax rises wouldn’t have been needed if Britain had remained in the EU.
Best 11 minutes you'll spend tonight, Germany is on to the greatest fraud in British political history, it's all in here, Leave's lies, illegal spending, dubious companies, Banks' dodgy diamond mines, Farage; even a cameo by

Suella Braverman, has a history of providing clarity where there is 'confusion' as you can see in this excruciating exchange with Krishnan Guru-Murthy...
Seemingly, many Brexit snowflakers are up-in-arms at the wonderful Steph McGovern's parting shot at the misogynist mess currently squatting in 10 Downing Street.
So just for them, here it is in all it's glory again....

Dara Ó Briain - "Brexit was a terrible idea that has never delivered any benefits, and, unlike politicians, I’m not obliged to pretend it’s not a terrible idea."
Forget all the spin, today, at the IFS, Chief Economist of Citibank, Benjamin Nabarro, nailed it - Brexit has been a disaster. "The UK is an economic laggard...the only economy not to have recovered its pre-pandemic level...total UK trade remains 25-30% off its pre-Brexit trend."
Pricks till the end, too stupid to realise they've been used too. Goodbye and good riddance, at least the freaks led by Farage won't be embarrassing our country at the EU anymore.
Fairly safe to say a pragmatic John Bercow speaks for the true majority of our confused nation, "That's not to say the EU is perfect...it isn't...it's flawed and it has weaknesses, it has drawbacks...but the advantages of EU membership very greatly outweigh the disadvantages..."
Michael Bloomberg, the billionaire media mogul and former mayor of New York, has said "Brexit is the single stupidest thing any country has ever done apart from the election of Donald Trump as US president."
ASTOUNDING statement from Prof. Philip Davies, a director of the Brunel Centre for Intelligence & Security Studies,
@mrjamesob
explains we were all concerned enough already (over the non-publication of the ISC report)...Prof. Davies replies, "It's much worse than you think!"
Well we're shocked. It turns out that Boris Johnson's 'Oven Ready Deal' wasn't ready, there was no deal, there wasn't even an oven! Just another of his 'Big Fat Lies'...
This was 2019...
Marr on Jennifer Arcuri: "You have to declare an interest, did you declare it?"
Johnson: "There was no interest to declare"
Johnson lies with impunity because the whole cabal is untouchable, there are no consequences from Parliament, the GLA or the police.
You hear it but you can't quite believe it.
Johnson, a key player in the devastating Brexit heist that's causing massive disruption, political turmoil and hundreds of billions of pounds damage to the UK, states that after their conflict with Russia, Ukraine should join the EU!
WATCH - Farage conned the electorate over Brexit, conned the EU over his expenses and now he's conning people over this Brexit Party with its dubious paypal funding; Farage is nothing but an opportunistic spiv, but his strings are being pulled by someone far more dangerous...
#PeoplesVoteMarch

that follow Farage; flag waving nationalists masquerading as patriots. FULL CLIP -
Professor Patman explaining how Brexit referendum cheating has left British democracy diminished, yet PM refuses to act as she and her cabinet are the main beneficiaries of criminal acts that leave the UK looking like a banana republic. Full interview:
All Hull’s fishermen voted for Brexit because Boris Johnson promised a “prodigious” increase in quotas but they have been cut in half since the UK left the EU because we now negotiate independently rather than from a position of strength as part of the EU.
Last night, the truth, the facts, the full horror of Brexit was expertly collated and presented by Ros Atkins. For the economy, for business investment and for you, it's an unmitigated disaster. Here's a small clip, but you can watch his full show here -
MUST WATCH - Johnson’s administration horrendously exposed by Chris Patten: “After the prorogation we see the organized filibustering to frustrate the Benn no deal bill. This is not Conservatism, this is English Nationalism, with a nasty bit provided by Dominic Cummings…”
"In a few short years, Britain has gone from being a recognised world leader to an inward-looking, claustrophobic and closed version of its former self. Brexit will be seen to have been a terrible mistake that doomed ‘Great Britain’ to irrelevance."
Long version: "Cabinet Office run by Michael Gove has been officially reprimanded by the UK Statistics Authority for attempting to deny that Brexit had caused a massive fall in volumes of trade through British ports."
Short version: Michael Gove lied.
TUSK - "The UK is leaving the EU, many people in the UK wish for its reversal, I have always been with you with all my heart, but the pro-Brexit stance of the Prime Minister and the leader of the opposition rules out this question; there's no effective leadership for Remain'
Alex Phillips has long since been schooled on the casual lies all Brexiters substitute for truth; here she is 4 years ago, on the receiving end of a surgical lecture from Barry Gardiner, while Rory Stewart is left wondering why he was ever part of the Brexit enabling Tory party.
What a time to be alive - With a general election underway, the widow of a KGB spy, murdered in London on the orders of President Putiin, through poisoning with polonium-210, is taking Boris Johnson to court over hiding a report into Russian interference!
After putting 32 pubs up for sale in September, the sad sack, Brexit supporting owner of JD Wetherspoon, Tim Martin - after finding labour, food and repair costs were "substantially higher" in Brexit Britain - puts a further 7 pubs on the market this week.
"NHS England, has warned doctors, nurses and other staff will be subject to disciplinary action if they raise with the media their concerns relating to their workplace conditions or patient care, such as a shortage of personal protective equipment (PPE)."
A stunning valedictory speech from
@IanCLucas
in which, using the actual words of Dominic Cummings, he reveals to a shocked House that the Prime Minister and Michael Gove have known of Vote Leave's illegality for over three years!
Full speech here:
WATCH - Compassionate New Zealand Prime Minister, Jacinda Ardern, says she would not tolerate tens of thousands of New Zealanders dying from COVID-19 for the nation to obtain herd immunity before a vaccine is found - Boris Johnson, "Meh"
Another reminder that the owners of P&O, Dubai based DP World, have been working with high ranking Tory ministers, Sunak, Truss and Shapps on Brexit Freeport plans, trade and transport….
Rachel Johnson: 'I do not want to see m̶y̶ ̶b̶r̶o̶t̶h̶e̶r̶ Brexit rubbing out my children’s prospects of living, travelling and working in Europe. Sometimes one has to stand up and be counted. It is now that time for me, we are far better in the EU.'
People may have their problems with Blair but listen as he perfectly elucidates the real problems with Brexit. Most appear to have forgotten that the reasons people voted for Brexit aren't the reason why we are where we are; that's because Vote Leave and LeaveEU lied and cheated.

"I wouldn’t have dared to say this a few months ago, as I could be fired for being too frank:
"Don’t give up. In this match, we've already had added time, now we are in extra time, perhaps it will even go to penalties?"
Another moment when self-centred Boris Johnson is shown up for what he is - a duplicitous liar who only thinks of himself - speaker John Bercow has to step in to deliver a tribute to Ken Clarke, and his 49 years of service in the House, after Johnson can't be bothered
BREAK: Chancellor Nadhim Zahawi has emerged from his bunker to urge the desperate and vulnerable to ‘remain resilient’ in order to give more to ‘the war effort.’
Possibly the greatest single attempt of despicable Tory gaslighting in a long line of despicable Tory gaslighting.

Thankfully, we have the offending clip.
Britain is currently chock-a-block with failed ex-politicians - Liz Truss, Theresa May, Matt Hancock, Iain Duncan Smith, Jacob Rees-Mogg, Boris Johnson - telling how to fix everything that they mysteriously failed to fix when they were in power.
WATCH this passionate Portuguese lady - whilst the little Englanders will sneer, all decent people stand by her as the far-right exercise their merciless coup on democracy.
WATCH - cometh the hour cometh the Tory lie; in January Hancock told Parliament we had a world leading test for Convid-19, that the NHS was ready and that the whole of the UK was well prepared...today we're facing reality and they want you to believe another set of their claims!
April Fool Mark Francois now completely out of control with his warped view of how parliament works. In a crowded field, is he the stupidest MP in parliament?

Ouch! Channel 4 News really cuts to the chase, Brexit Britain is now isolated on the world stage and Johnson's Brexit/Ukraine comparison was ridiculous...
Osborne: The reality is "Over the last 6 years Britain has become downgraded as an economic entity... because the institutions are weaker, THE POLITICS IS A MESS, and BRITAIN'S ECONOMIC PERFORMANCE, SINCE BREXIT, IS MARKEDLY WORSE...That is how the rest of the world looks at it."
Ian Lucas, "Russian interference goes right to the heart of British politics...Putin's Russia has been directly interfering with Western politics...the government has failed to take action, worse, it's taken millions of pounds of donations from Russian organisations."

In 2016, Labour warned that voting to Leave would remove the EU as guarantor of workers rights. On the 31st of December 2023, Jacob Rees-Mogg's Brexit Freedoms Bill will come into force, removing your right to paid holiday, paid maternity leave and various health and safety laws.
