So Boris Johnson is warning that more people will be murdered by violent Brexiters if we rejoin, just like those fascists made murder part of the first ref. Surely this is incitement to political violence – from a man who was prepared to pay thugs to beat up a journalist. He is the lowest of the low

Bill increases of nearly a third for millions of ordinary people have helped Thames Water's profits soar to over £400 million. Foreign hedge fund lenders want more power to pollute our waters and raise our bills. Privatised water is a scam. Let's bring it back into public hands.

1. Brexit is at least two things: Being out of the EU and being out of the Single Market.
2. Both of these can be reversed.
3. To blame a reversible problem for your harmful economic decisions, while still refusing to reverse that problem, is the behaviour of a fool.
