Here's Brexiter Suella Braverman swearing that we wouldn't have to pay the EU anything close to €50 billion after Brexit. She even called it #ProjectFear. The final sum we had to pay turned out to be €47.5 billion

Let this sink in.
"Britain is now paying the price for leaving the EU. By 2024, the average UK household will have a lower living standard than the average household in Slovenia. By 2030, on present trends, it will be poorer than the average household in Poland."

Merkel is a scientist. She hates vanity. And she hates stupidity. She isn't visiting the White House on this (probably last) official visit. That place is full of liars and fools. This speech was historic. The applause came so often they had to cut it out.
Strong words from Germany: "This pretence of sovereignty which the Brexit supporters parade to the point of ridiculousness, where does it lead to? To a politics of unfulfilled and unfulfillable expectations built on negligence, arrogance, broken promises, cynicism and lies."
Please listen! 🔊
As Mark Carney explains, Brexit was the first salvo in a wider, coordinated attack upon Western democracy. Its aim is to undermine our system by convincing enough people that "fascism is okay". That's why the message of "our nation is broken" is always the same.
German news just mentioned how impolite and "un-British" Johnson was by not letting Merkel leave the room first. Just like Trump, Johnson has no manners.
Hugh Grant has been a Remainer since day 1. When other stars stayed quiet, he spoke out. We remenber those who supported us. We're proud to have him on our side.
👏👏👏

Here's an excerpt from a very courageous speech by Emily @maitlis. In it, she rightly criticises the UK's media and politicians for their ongoing refusal to speak candidly about the damage of Brexit.
