Brexit is now costing the UK £90bn a year in lost tax revenue. Analysis by the House of Commons library also shows the average Brit has seen a hit of between £2,700 and £3,700. That's why taxes are at an all-time high. Brexit is simply untenable.

Having Johnson & Cummings in Downing Street when Covid struck was, just like Brexit, an entirely avoidable disaster caused largely by utterly appalling journalism. And now exactly the same clowns, arses & bigots with bylines are rolling out the red carpet for Farage.

Interesting to see so many great British patriots right now begging an American president to bankrupt one of Britain’s last remaining truly national institutions.

Always reluctant to join in BBC bashing but really…hours of fawning coverage for proposals from a party of 4 MPs, no mention of Farage’s role in Brexit which helped cause the small boats issue he now bemoans, and this headline that reads like a press release. Something has gone seriously wrong there
