I didn't mention this, to avoid sounding self-important, but:
@bbcquestiontime held an under-30s episode to get the views of young people on Brexit, invited Nigel Farage for his 6th Brexit appearance, but NOT the spokesperson for the largest youth movement on Brexit in the UK.🤔
And even when Channel 4 tried to do it right, with a majority anti-Brexit audience to reflect the views of 18-20yr-olds...
They still invited a bunch of Lexiters who they let dominate the airtime and spew false Lexit propaganda.
The first 5 opinions they showed were pro-Brexit.

Any Brexiteer who's claiming to care about the cost of living right now, after spending 6 years saying that "sovereignty" was worth a little hardship, needs to shut the **** up.
That means Julia Hartley-Brewer can STFU about the cost of living crisis, given that she explicitly said she was happy for Brexit to make people poorer.
"If there is a cost to that, then so be it!" @JuliaHB1
That means Nigel Farage can STFU about the cost of living given that he said there was no price he wouldn't be willing to make people pay for his Brexit. @Nigel_Farage
Labour's best chance of winning is an electoral pact based on voting reform, and they expelled me for saying so.
I hope the winners of the NEC elections will be less tribal...So that the mere mention of the fact that a pact might help the other parties isn't treated as betrayal.
Really?
You're asking ME that question?
I received my membership card in Jan 2020. My offending tweet was in 7 February.
So why did Labour decide to cancel my membership at 01.51am 24 March, 8 hours after the 1st lockdown was announced?
The Tories took us out of the EU, so we now have to do (by ourselves) all the things we used to do together as 28 countries sharing the load (e.g. trade negotiations, GPS systems etc).
And now they're saying we need a SMALLER civil service!
The idea that you can leave a shared administration of 28 countries, so that you can do everything by yourself, but expect to save money and resources is just madness.
