Forget the polls.
Forget the news.
Forget the rhetoric.
Forget the debates.
Just look at the votes.
51.9% voted for Brexit in 2016.
Then 54.04% voted for parties who promised to avoid #NoDealBrexit in 2017.
If we're still a democracy, that should be all that matters.

The very idea of No-Deal is an insult to Brexit voters.
Leaving the EU with a comprehensive trade deal is nothing like leaving without one. Most Brexit voters expected the former, but the Brexit politicians are saying that Brexit voters aren't smart enough to tell the difference.
To anyone suggesting that most Brexit voters didn't expect a deal...
What did they say literally any time someone suggested that Brexit would make trade with the EU more expensive? They denied it, citing German cars or how much the EU need us.
That means they expected a deal!
To anyone suggesting we'll get a better deal once we leave...
When we lose market access to a free trade area that covers 1/3 of the world's economy and the EU loses market access to just one country, who'll be more desperate?
So if we couldn't get the deal we wanted before...

Do financially struggling people just lack a positive attitude? Are their kids hungry because they don't have a "can-do" spirit? Would a bit of optimism create local jobs?

Or are the people saying that about a Brexit we can all see has failed gambling our country for their gain?
For example...
Brexit politicians will soon be saying "Hey, I know you lost your job because you worked at a factory that sold 70% of its products to EU countries and we just whacked on a massive EU-UK tariff, but if you summon the spirit of Dunkirk, your universal credit will come faster!"

I'm already seeing Labour & Lid Dem activists fighting and frankly it makes me sick.
In 2017, more people voted for the Dems & Labour than voted for the Tories & DUP.
With a No-Deal Brexit on the table, if you people can't work together, you may as well work for Boris.
#GE2019
I recorded this message in 2017 but apparently it still needs to be heard in 2019.
#GE2019
The maths is simple.
Anti-No Deal parties got over 54% of the vote in BOTH the 2017 election and the 2019 euro elections.
So if you all put aside party politics for the good of the country, just this once, a #GE2019 only ends on way. SO WORK TOGETHER.

#Brexit news for today:

Nigel Adams, Minister for Wales, and Governement whip has resigned the #Cabinet over #TheresaMay's way forward.

1/n
You can hear #TheresaMay's reaction from here

2/n
So the splitting of the #ToryParty continues. Where will it end? And can we expect resignations from #Labour if #Corbyn is seen as giving up too much to #TheresaMay during the discussions tonight.

#Brexit & political disillusionment thread...
Thought #EURef campaign would be based on facts, not lies. I was wrong.
Thought media would call out #Brexit -er lies & challenge obvious bollocks. I was wrong.
