The only way to truly make Brexit work...
...is to bury it six feet under and join the EU as full members again. That way Brexit can fulfil its true function as a blip in history that serves as an important cautionary tale.

Nigel Farage loves to claim the BBC is “rigged” against him. But the facts are very different.
In truth, the BBC is going out of its way to appease Farage. New reporting shows that top BBC execs met this year to discuss plans to tailor both news and cultural content to appeal to Reform UK voters.
