Drinky, it is only "done" in the view of the habitual liar of an ex-PM of ours (plus a few of his hangers on and GBeebies presenters).
When he was brexit secretary, the best example of a brexit benefit Rees-Mogg could give was that we could change the signs in the Dartford tunnel from metres to yards. Makes everyone's life better, does that!
I didn't vote for Brexit, it was a ridiculous idea and it has turned out to be even worse than I feared at the time. But I could have been swayed IF the trade deals had materialised and life was, as promised, better. It is not better by any measure. The liar got elected on the back of the pack of lies that were used to sell brexit and then spent his brief time in office going from one lie to another before thay caught up with him. Even now he's been found by a group of his peers to have lied repeatedly, he's still playing the victim! He should be behind bars!
Now we have a tory government that goes through PM's faster than Watford do managers, whose key policy is to 'stop the boats' that have massively increased in number because the tories have closed all other means for asylum seekers to get here. This is a devisive policy aimed purely at defelecting the attention away from the appalling state of the economy, NHS, public services and social care. They are corrupt to the core with PPE fraud, breaking their own laws and filling the Lords with their mates/lovers/kids.
And the current incumbant of 10DS tells people who can't afford to feed their kids to "hold their nerve" in the face of mortgages repayments almost doubling!
Not all of this is a direct result of brexit but all of it is a symptom of the government that got elected on the platform of brexit.
This country is in a mess and the quicker we get a general election, the better.
