1) In all the anger of "will of the people being thwarted" its probably worth remembering that our various #Brexit MP Vote Leave leaders have achieved precisely zero since the referendum, and have failed in every single task they set themselves

No wonder we're in this mess
2) Johnson was an international joke as Foreign Secretary, David Davis conceded at every stage with the EU before finally finding an excuse to resign, Gove hid from any important Brexit role, Leadsom & Grayling support May's deal whilst obviously hating it
3) Fox travelled the globe but came back without even a whiff of a promise of a substantial trade deal

Hannan has simply shuffled off, Stuart resigned her seat as soon as she could, Raab was essentially Brexit secretary in absence

Even Mogg blew it when he tried to stage a coup

1) The one big takeaway from #BrexitUncivilWar is leavers don't get to say anymore "we all just voted to leave"

It's out there, the cherry picking of swing/none voters, 1 billion targeted messages blaming each individual's issues on the EU

"£350 M and Turkey" driven home
2) Maybe you, your friends, next doors dog all knew well in advance exactly why you voted Leave
It doesn't matter because Vote Leave didn't go after you, it went after the middle 3rd of undecided and told them anything it needed to tell them to convince them the EU was wrong
3) there's no point saying "are you calling leave voters stupid?" because marketing works, especially when you don't know you're being marketed to.

And no one had ever marketed as shamelessly like Vote Leave before, it wasn't even possible 10 years ago

I'm really enjoying reading the #BrexitUncivilWar hashtag, especially the fact that some people like @DouglasCarswell and @darrengrimes_ who feature are participating.
Finally if you want some, kind of, Dominic Cummings 'fan/un-fan art' here are a two illustrations for the blogs I wrote about him. #BrexitUncivilWar Graphical illustration of D...Hand drawn comic. The first...

Meet Victoria Woodcock. She was Vote Leave's operations director. She was also the admin for a shared drive that clearly showed BeLeave & Vote Leave were illicitly co-ordinating. Cummings' name was deleted from this drive after investigations began.
Here we go. Cold, hard evidence. Deleted by someone featured in this drama. It looks like obstruction of justice. It smells like obstruction of justice. And all those people up on screen have refused to answer questions about it...
"Where are we at, Parky?" First reference to Stephen Parkinson. Political secretary to @theresa_may. Special friend of @ShahmirUK. Used number 10 press office to smear & discredit him. Hasn't answered a single question. Close to certain BBC journalists.
