Shall we declare June 30th national 'claim we're not racist and pretend the immigration arguments made in the referendum didn't really happen' day?
For the politicians that have got past this, we were there in 2016. We remember what was said. We remember how it was sold.
If pretending to yourself that this is really all about fairness helps you sleep at night, we can dedicate an entire day where we all pretend that lie is true.
Then the rest of the year, you don't insult our intelligence by saying it aloud.
You can hold onto that lie, but you keep it to yourselves.
You can hold onto that lie, but you keep it to yourselves.
Fair? I think so.
