Boris Johnson just said that because we rely on the EU for 70% of our medicines and 50% of our food, we can't just copy the Australian model.
**** me dead!
I agree with every word of this. The moment Johnson is gone we'll begin a process of negotiating an ever-closer relationship with the EU. At some point we'll realise that the only way to "take back control" of our destiny is to apply to rejoin. It'll be a long and painful road.
In 1988, Margaret Thatcher proudly declared that the barriers to trade in Europe were coming down. In 2020, the same party is putting the barriers back up. Progress can never be taken for granted!

So many people have already tested their eyesight by watching this projection on Barnard Castle (2M+ views and 55K+ shares on social media). Chip in here to help us hold Johnson’s government to account https://t.co/b8z7ZxwAJ2
Whether or not you think Brexit will be good for the UK in the long term (I do not), I think it’s now beyond doubt that it was the proximate cause of the dumbing down of the Conservative Party which in turn contributed to the disasterous health and economic outcomes of Covid-19.
I’d rather have a burgundy coloured EU passport than a blue coloured UK-only passport. I’d rather be an internationalist than an isolationist. Please retweet if you agree.

Today we celebrate 15 years of #EUenlargement.
For us in those days, Europe really was a symbol of freedom, high standards, prosperity, modernity and security. And we have never been disappointed.

But apparently, it’s got nothing to do with Brexit.
