Monday
Why all the long faces? Just a few days ago it was the fifth anniversary of the UK leaving the EU, so how come we didn’t have a weekend of celebrations? The Labour government marked the occasion by choosing to ignore it entirely. As if it had never happened. The Tories were also rather muted, with Kemi Badenoch keeping a low profile. Even Nigel Farage was sotto voce. His statement merely noted that Brexit would have gone a great deal better if the Tories had managed it better. As usual, Nige was taking no personal responsibility for anything.
