Keir Starmer clearly recognises the damage Brexit continues to do to the UK economy, and the need to go further to repair the relationship with the EU.
Has he got the courage to put McSweeney and Glasman aside and do what needs to be done?
The clock is ticking!

Come on, everybody, the magic 100,000 signatures is in sight. If you want our Parliament, not the Kremlin, to be sovereign in the UK, we need to get Putin’s puppets out of our politics & media.
Take back control.

It’s Brexit that has made us all poorer, we can all see it. Any UK budget that tries to deal with the symptoms without tackling the cause will fall short, Scotland can do so much better with independence in Europe.

Brexit has cost each and every one of us £3,700 a year.
But instead of solving the problem, Labour are using Brexit as an excuse to raise your taxes.
My message ahead of the Budget: Stop blaming Brexit and start fixing it!

Brexit: “The most dishonest campaign in our history said it would save us £350m a week, but Brexit actually cost us £250m a day in 2025. That is why we have the highest taxes ever, that is why we have sky-high bills, that is why we have a cost of living crisis” @eddavey.libdems.org.uk

Brexit.
Ten years have passed. Arguments raged. Our economic issues were due to global shocks.
But no, new data shows UK falling behind 33 comparable countries.
We took back control - straight into a self inflicted economic slowdown.

What peace plan? A crude threat with Putin's fingerprints all over it.
Do I understand correctly that there is now a dispute within the administration about whether this "peace plan" was written by Russians or Americans?

Farage […] has spoken of his admiration for Putin as a political operator.
He also made at least 17 appearances on state-owned Russia Today, on which he made no criticisms of Russian democracy and claimed Europe was governed not by elected democracies.

Farage can now be easily boxed in to a corner where his only ‘defence’ becomes: “Yes I spouted Kremlin propaganda & Putin worship but, unlike Nathan Gill, I didn’t need bribes to do it.”
It is, once again, a question of whether interviewers have the temerity to shut down his whining obfuscations.
