This is a genuine Leave campaign video from the 2016 referendum.

Notice how absolutely none of the claims it makes have since come true, and in fact they provide a useful shopping list of things that have been made worse by Brexit.

@RAMMM01443430 @BBCPolitics Why do you care how someone wants to be addressed?

@archeohistories Roman soldiers were sourced from all over the Empire and from outside it, so assuming that they should have all resembled the archetype modern Italian is a bit silly.

@WBS2028 @Telegraph You made it sound as if there's someone intelligent and informed in charge!

Refocusing on the POTUS's uninformed obsessions. Refocusing on reversing out of his huge mistakes over IRAN in such a way as to be able to say he won something.

@Mike_Gick @ZelenskyyUa Why believe anything Russia says? Back before February 2022 there was apparently no "special military operation" planned. Perhaps the power-addicted warlord of the Kremlin could stop killing Russians with his delusions. Putin - Russia's biggest enemy since Hitler.

@Lanceduke127729 @OnthisdayRN @RoyalNavy Tricky to do anything else when the Royal Navy's main battleships had just been sunk by Japanese aircraft off Malaya.

@llwyynduw @DefenceHQ It's a good strategy to keep the military border several thousand miles to the east, especially when the people on the other side of that border are heavily armed and hate us

@zyildirim1985 @BowesChay Do you mean Russia?

[Stuart Shurlock @stushurlock]

@TheusCattius @BowesChay Or watching Russian drones attack their neighbour. Russia revived NATO with its neo-imperialist fantasies, and now blames everyone but its own stupid leadership.

[Stuart Shurlock @stushurlock]

@BowesChay Not heard of NATO? Black Sea states Romania, Bulgaria and Turkiye are all members, as is the UK.

@alxtwits @nexta_tv Initial reasons for the conflict? Putin suffering from a serious fit of imperialist nostalgia plus a wildly optimistic view of his nation's military capabilities. Hitler's example was never a good one to follow. Denazify the Kremlin and peace will follow for the whole of Europe.

@AllisonPearson Paralysed for 10 years by half of the voters, most of who have changed their minds since? I don't remember our growth being other than sluggish in the glory years of brexit. Vote Reform for guaranteed years of national paralysis while we erode even more of our freedoms.

[Stuart Shurlock @stushurlock]

@RinseHold @Telegraph Of course, that bizarre Brexit thing (the "solution" to none of the UK's problems) has nothing to do with our current situation. Chickens coming home to roost, and the Telegraph is still in Fantasyland.

@BanUniparties @jonil7777 @KyivIndependent Cut out the pointless insults. How about continuing the argument without them? You presumably have some real data to back up your so-far fixed opinions.
