Brexit means lying your arse off to fool people into voting for something that is against their own best interests.
Brexit means wasting almost 3 years without any plan whatsoever.
Brexit means a totally unnecessary crisis.

What never ceases to amaze me about Brexit is the discovery that "the British public" has shrunk to a pitiful handful of hateful tossers and everyone else has simply ceased to exist. It's a sort of miracle. pic.twitter.com/CTNF2h6J6w

Time to be clear. May doesn’t want a Peoples Vote because it splits her party irredeemably.And it would be over Corbyn’s dead body who sees the EU as an evil Empire. We are out of the EU – probably with some 3rd rate deal. For both of them no Deal better than 2nd vote. A tragedy.

Breaking News: Jeff Bezos accused the owner of the National Enquirer of "extortion and blackmail" in an extraordinarily personal online post https://t.co/oRswYC97qa

I’ve written a post about developments with the National Enquirer and its parent company, AMI. You can find it here: https://t.co/G1ykJAPPwy
— Jeff Bezos (@JeffBezos) February 7, 2019
So, seriously, read what Bezos has to say here — "If in my position I can’t stand up to this kind of extortion, how many people can?" — and consider it, particularly, in light of AMI and Pecker's involvement in the "ongoing" investigation into the Cohen campaign violations.
