STOP LYING!
Dominic Raab:"All the UK is asking is to be treated like any other country. No other country would accept being bound by EU rules".
Except: Norway/Iceland/Liechtenstein(EEA), Switzerland(EFTA), Turkey(C-Union)...
You know, the other non-EU European countries.. #Ridge
Sorry about the speed. When I'm not watching it live, I put the speed setting on either x1.5 or x2 so I can catch up quickly. @DominicRaab@SophyRidgeSky@RidgeOnSunday
Dominic Raab just repeated that same lie on #Marr.
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.
