The EU Army. Long denied by Remainders, now becoming a reality. Our PM is trying to lock us into it post Brexit. It will undermine NATO. Many shiny new HQs, befeathered Grand Admirals, goose-stepping honour guards & fluttering flags. No teeth.
Nigel Evans MP - "Every seat in Lancashire voted to leave, Wales voted to leave, the United Kingdom voted to leave.
"And I think it's dangerous for democracy if we don’t deliver what the British people said in 2016." #Brexit
I appreciate the intention of this message to curtail abuse and any suggestions I’m acting from ulterior motives - in itself, often a form of antisemitism - but what I appreciate most, is an opportunity to show first hand, the type of abuse being hurled in Labour’s name.
A few points Labour must consider:
78% of the 45 seats Labour must gain from the Conservatives to win the next general election voted Leave
72% of Labour's 25 most vulnerable constituencies (majorites under 2,000) voted Leave
61% of all Labour constituencies voted Leave
@sportmarketing1 Except that isn’t what happened - as @sarahwollaston surely knows. Parliament wasn’t allowed to submit amendments - all MPs who tried were told (accurately) that it was unamendable. Then the Speaker broke the rule for one and only one amendment that he (and SW) likes.
Parliament is a circus and the ringmaster a clown.
Every strand of the political establishment is at odds with the other and most importantly with the will of the people.
This is the legacy of a first past the post electoral system unfit for today.

“Both me and Anna Soubry are white middle-class people in positions of privilege. We need to start talking about how we have treated the working classes with contempt, then feign surprise when they backlash against us” 🤷🏼♂️
“Britain has always been a world leader. We should not doubt that we always will be.A No Deal Brexit is the only way of ending the uncertainty and allowing us to get on with our lives as a successful, independent nation.” https://t.co/rBvcMT8ys3
