If you are one of those people in despair that Labour will not commit to rejoining the EU or even to joining the single market, you now know why.
Just one trip to Paris at which Sir Keir Starmer suggested that keeping our standards in step with the EU was a sensible policy and the newspapers are screaming Brexit betrayal.
The fact that the government has already done just this by abolishing plans for a British alternative to the CE mark, is never mentioned. With that one u-turn much of the supposed rationale for Brexit was destroyed, did you hear a peep about that?
No I thought not.
Labour has to keep its powder dry, get into power and then try to be nice to the neighbours, even that will be met with howls of outrage but it is the only way forward, but first Labour has to get into power.
Economics, trade and Brexit, not necessarily in that order but the dog always comes first.

Why do we accept this is a normal or healthy state of affairs? Who gave the news media owners the power to distort and basically lie?
It would be something if the private corporations otherwise knows as the UK press were held to some legal standard of truthfulness and factuality. The notion that the privately owned UK press, and much of the broadcast media, represents "the voice of the people", or the voice and financial interest of anyone except their proprietors, is absurd.
I don’t recall the Mail getting het up about Horizon either (did it even report I?)
