The weekend after the referendum I warned that the Brexiters' inability to accept responsibility for their actions and their political choices would lead them into backlash politics blogs.spectator.co.uk/2016/06/brexit…
Two years on, and look at the supposedly moderate Tory MP @JamesCleverly. He does not blame Vote Leave, or indeed, himself, for making the impossible promise that we could wrench ourselves out of the EU without any ill effect whatsoever
The paralysis in government, the collapse of our global standing,and the prospect of a Brexit-induced stagnation turning into a Brexit-induced recession, are the fault of fifth columnists: those "loud and persuasive" voices who conspired with the EU to stab Britain in the back.
Cleverly and his friends broke it but they sure as hell don't want to own it. There thus needs to be an unremitting campaign to ensure that a basic fact is universally understood. Brexit is the responsibility of those who campaigned for Brexit. It really is that simple
