#eu #brexit "It is not merely stunned, it has ceased to be, expired and gone to meet its maker.

"It is a parrot no more. It has run down the curtain and joined the choir invisible. This is a late parrot. And now for something completely different."

Two rather sad articles in today's Guardian by Corbynite outrider Owen Jones (Owen, the very last thing that Norway wants is for the UK to join EFTA - ditto Iceland, Liechtenstein and Switzerland!) and by Cambridge academic Chris Bickerton whose arguments for resisting a second referendum can not only be described as
tendentious but dangerously specious. The majority of people who voted Leave in 2016 were seriously misled. In short the referendum must be judged as both flawed in design and fraudulent in execution because of the involvement of hostile, non-UK actors. Shame on the Guardian for not allowing readers' comments on these two articles.

If Carolyn Fairbairn had a gram of integrity she would be calling for the revocation of Article 50 or a Second Referendum. On the other hand, she may have made the mistake of picking up the phone and listening to a very desperate woman!

Jeremy Corbyn says the real divide is many/few not remain/leave. But remain v leave has CRITICAL impact on many/few divide. Leave is a sluice gate to a more unequal and poorer Britain. There is no #brexit for the many.
