Here is Labour’s “Growth Minister” – three words that should never sit next to each other in a sentence – Lord Livermore standing at the Lords despatch box claiming it is an “inevitability” that Brexit will be undone:
“We are seeking to mitigate at the margins the huge damage done to the UK economy by Brexit… should we in due course re-enter the European Union, well of course, my personal view is that that is an inevitability. Of course the Uk will at one point re-enter the European Union because it is absolutely in our economic interest…”f
It is almost ten years exactly since the referendum, and the likes of Livermore still haven’t recovered. At least he gets to carry around a red box and call himself the Financial Secretary to the Treasury. Labour’s rejoin efforts are now so obvious they can be observed from outer space. Will Starmer disagree with these comments?
Former leader of the SNP in Westminster Ian Blackford told Times Radio why he believes Nicola Sturgeon’s claim that she spent no time in the kitchen and therefore didn’t see any of her husband’s purchases:
“She doesn’t have a passion for cooking.”
