According to Brexiteer Liam Fox, there is a dastardly plot by Remain-supporting MPs to steal Brexit from the people.
But the real thieves are the Brexiteers, who have stolen our membership of the EU and stolen our country, as it was for forty years, by breaking electoral laws, sending unsolicited messages, and pretending we could save £350 million a week if we voted to leave the EU in the 2016 referendum?
We used to live in a country that was open, tolerant, peaceful, stable and, compared to most other countries, fairly prosperous. Since the 2016 referendum Britain has been none of these things. Our borders are closing, which is making it more difficult to travel in and out of the country, people are becoming intolerant and hostile, MPs are receiving death threats, the government is in chaos, running out of money for public services, and businesses are not investing any more. Brexit, if it happens, can only make things worse.
Not all countries in the EU are as open, tolerant, peaceful, stable or prosperous as I would like, but they are all more so for being members of the EU, which is good for them and good for us.
Can we still recover the country we seem to be losing, that the Brexiteers have stolen from us?
