Every day for six years, the Brexit press, MPs, & lobbyists have hunted for a positive, material Brexit outcome; something that would make the £bns in lost trade, removal of personal freedoms, inflation, and the fracturing of Britain, worth it
This is why we end up with front-page stories about stuff that never happened (EU banning imperial measures & crowns on pints) or stuff that was always happening ("UK opens door to world's top graduates") on an increasingly regular rinse & repeat cycle
Of course, there are still a few people who, when presented with the results of the calamity they foisted on the rest of us, say things like "freedom" & "sovrinty", but they have become increasingly rare.
I wonder if they're now just embarrassed by the whole thing?
@LBC@metpoliceuk So the Sunday Times is confident that Johnson's party both broke the law and Johnson has no defence, but he wasn't fined for it nor did @metpoliceuk or #SueGray investigate it.
Even the propagandists at the Mail on Sunday know the EU never banned the crown from appearing on pint glasses - something Tories established for themselves in 2007
Has to be said, it appears that there have only been a maximum of 26 more fines issued since the last update from @metpoliceuk - so, the chances that Johnson accounts for several of these seems increasingly unlikely.
