1/ Welcome to the May Bank Holiday in Brexitlandia
2/ The sun is shining, it is Pimms O’clock all day, what is not to like to about living in our sceptred isle 🍹🍹🍹
3/ After are all we are now Global Britain taking control of our future 👊👊👊
4/ Well it seems that given the performance of the anti Brexit parties in the local elections, the Government thought the best way to take back control is to turn a blind eye to racism
5/ But then when you created the “hostile environment” it is surprising anyone gets suspended from Government at all
6/ But then as Britain goes Global we only want to attract the “brightest and best” even though whatever they do they will never made to feel this is truly home.
7/ But you don’t have to be the brightest or best to realise the UK is probably not the best place to be right now
8/ Especially when you have the two main parties wanting to deliver a form of Brexit that realistically won’t make anyone better off. @KateHoeyMP is leading example of someone who is so confused by Brexit she is now thinks she is in Government
9/ Especially when leading advocates of Brexit like @johnredwood advise their clients to move their money out of the UK and then faced with the cheery demeanour and charming logic of @Femi_Sorry collapse instantly
10/ Especially when @UKIP reveal that they really do want to go back to the bad times when they think the Black Death was a force for good. Pretty sure a slow and painful death is not what leavers voted for 🤔
11/ Here is perennial charlatan @BorisJohnson demonstarting his position is closer to that of @UKIP. The casual reader would do well to assume that whatever @BorisJohnson says, the opposite MUST BE TRUE
12/ Here is a good example that the Government Brexit plan is leading us to become an exporter - mainly of jobs
13/ Indeed all versions of Brexit will leave the UK worse off.
14/ And @theresa_may is determined to make us worse off because she once set her own redlines which it would look bad for her to move away from. The difference is that for 65 million people her red lines will be bad if she does not move away from them. Still will of the people 🤤
15/ But all is not lost because some MPs are doing their best to mitigate the impact of @theresa_may ‘s needless redlines
16/ And this would seem a positive development to put evidence and realism ahead of the incoherent warblings of @Jacob_Rees_Mogg . Especially when Labour voted for a similar step recently
17/ Indeed there is a growing call for people to ignore Ghost of Victorian Past @Jacob_Rees_Mogg
18/ Indeed this is all very laudable
19/ But only if Government MPs actually show some courage at voting time. Otherwise all it is a chance to watch Tories fighting themselves. Normally this would be fun but not when so much is at stake and we have a ticking clock ⏰
20/ Equally all eyes will be on Labour peers on Tuesday when there is a vote on staying in the single market. No doubt @jeremycorbyn will whip peers not to vote for it
21/ Mainly because @jeremycorbyn does not understand state aid rules and also despite defying the whip many times because he is a man of principle, now he is in charge he is for the few not the many
22/ Perhaps @jeremycorbyn wants to help the Government create more red tapered because he likes the colour red 🎈🎈🎈🎈
23/ And while the Uk sets about leaving in a disorderly fashion causing as much harm to its own economy as it can, the evil EU continues to stifle the UK economy with its inflexible dictatorial attitude
24/ The UK really is blessed with Brexit especially when there are no questions about the free and fair vote we had or the closeness of Legatum to shaping Government policy
25/ The casual reader may query why the Government held an advisory binary vote on a complicated issue, now pursues the hardest Brexit on the narrowest majority when the economic consequence is bad and the legitimacy of its actions are tainted 💩💩💩💩
26/ For those that can remember as far cal as tweet 23 (to take an example) may wonder what the Uk itself is doing for its own farmers post Brexit. And here is the answer
27/ Still if that is all rather gloomy, there is another way to view the UK’s place in the world and within Europe. So as you enjoy your Pimms and carcinogenic sausages today, watch this 🕊twitter.com/polakpolly/sta
PS sorry for the shocking typos. I have had a lot of Pimms for breakfast
