Good on you for saying this publicly. It’s a sad reflection of the state of Labour that saying it seems like an act of courage, when it so clearly should be Labour’s base position

Sure. I completely agree-it’s hideous and horrendous. And it needs all the pushback it deserves, moral and practical

They should also be asking basic questions about costs & economic impact. Aside from the hideous morality, this stuff is fairytale (nightmare) politics. If someone of the left proposed free laptops for all, they’d be immediately asked where the money comes from. This stuff should be no different

* I guess if we’re being technical, Farage massively exacerbated the economic malaise, which dates back (at least) to the financial crisis. But the fundamental point is that no Brexit equals a relatively better economy

Completely agree Alex. But there’s also something weird and twisted that the reason so many people are up for the fascism thing that Farage is selling, is the economic malaise that Farage himself has caused via Brexit.

After that Government (Partygate! Truss!!!) and that campaign, (D-Day????) you could even say winning under 34% of the vote is not exactly god-like genius…
