Brexit was stupid and wrong but Reeves tinkering is ALL she can do, not because of Brexit, but because she's wedded to an economic orthodoxy that has failed to deliver for decades.
"Reeves can find a few billions in revenue and plug a few holes here and there but that’s still tinkering with the economy and does nothing to address the fundamental problem which has beached the UK where it is today. That is Brexit."

Like critical race theory, “gender ideology” is both a bogeyman for the right and a backlash to social progress.
The right’s gripe isn’t just that trans people exist, but that their existence is tearing down the old world—of good men and obedient women—and unleashing a new, godless age of chaos.

It remains unclear if President Trump has decided to pursue such an escalation.
