No, @theresa_may. It’s Brexiters’ false promises that have broken faith with people.
They promised “trade deals on day one”, “no downsides”, “we hold all the cards”. All lies.
A #PeoplesVote to #Remain is the democratic way out of this mess. https://t.co/LOnkdIzbqe

Theresa May still talking like only 40 people voted remain rather than half the population.

Big division breaking out within Brexit camp on whether to boycott a referendum. Daniel Hannan says yes but Farage – who knows the British don’t boycott democracy – isn’t going there. One to watch

If you deploy the “85% backed Brexit” maths about the 2017 General Election… then surely you must also accept that, by that methodology of the vote share of manifestos, a majority voted to rule out “No Deal” at the most recent national poll: https://t.co/uXsitqeK9x

The reason Brexit is doing so much damage is not just that it is a mistake. It is a reckoning. https://t.co/7A1cVOV9Mm pic.twitter.com/tnImETGbF9

Corbyn is the worst leader of a major British political party since the war. But the Conservative Party cannot continue to ignore the wider electorate, and engage in a never-ending Brexit war, without the voters finally saying "The other lot can't be any worse. Enough now".

A REAL scandal is the one sided coverage, hour by hour, of networks like NBC & Democrat spin machines like Saturday Night Live. It is all nothing less than unfair news coverage and Dem commercials. Should be tested in courts, can’t be legal? Only defame & belittle! Collusion?
