Tonight at my local Harvester. 5 men, pushing & pulling outside until one starts swinging. He misses a punch & falls, nearly impaling his head on a fence post. In anger he then strips completely naked to continue the fight.
Nobody else wanted to fight after that. #EatOutToHelpOut
If you're new here...Not all my tweets are making a point.
While I can think of no better metaphor for Brexit than a loud angry man exposing himself in public while everyone else looks on in horror & confusion at why he thought this was a good idea...
This was just a funny story.

Can you imagine if, during the years of Brexit renegotiations (2020-24), journalists had grilled the Tories on their manifesto promise to get Brexit done.... as much as they're now grilling Labour on whether they're "taxing working people"?
It shows they CAN do their jobs.
They just chose not to with the Tories.
Look at this.
It's very good journalism by @WilfredFrost, exposing that the Labour manifesto used the technicality of not directly taxing working people, but it still hits them.
"Get Brexit Done" was literally the title of the Tory manifesto and was NEVER challenged like this.
Boris Johnson started renegotiations SIX MONTHS after winning an election on a promise to end the Brexit negotiations.
So there's nothing subjective about the fact that the Tory government was elected on a lie.
Yet NOT ONE news station categorically communicated that fact.
