Still raging about the abject moral abomination of Brexitism. Things I rage about less: Herodotus/5thc Athens, mograph/VFX, music.

The British press poses a genuine and profound threat to our democracy and our shared prosperity. They howl out their right wing, wealth-protecting agenda and want Farage as PM. We will all pay a very high price for their selfish greed and their utter indifference to social inequality.

I wonder which British newspaper is the most dishonest.
The Mail seems too editorially thick to win that prize. It howls out its hypocrisy with its absurd headlines.
My vote would be for The Times. A deeply sly operation that uses its ‘paper of record’ reputation as cover for its far right agenda.

Tory immigration policy - ruinous, prejudiced madness.
Tory Brexit ideology - ruinous, prejudiced madness.
Why Labour is killing itself and the country to try to soothe the unsoothable rightwing media is beyond me. Tell the goddam truth. Publish the damage. Only then can you start to fix it.

If anyone is celebrating, they’ve been truly suckered by the racist agenda of the post Brexit years.
In fear of Farage, govts have committed themselves to repel investment, shrink our economy, create labour shortages and turn ourselves into a prejudiced little backwater.
Slow hand clap all round.
