How do we resolve the Brexit mess?

I think Alistair Campbell may have just done a line or two before sniffing, rubbing his nose, shouting and losing his temper on Newsnight just now

I only caught the Campbell venting right at the end of that - don't know what the Reform advisor was saying.
He was wrong to have a go at the host though.

Hindsight is a wonderful thing though isn't it. I didn't vote. Why ? Because I could not reconcile what should happen with what could happen. What could happen did happen and we are left with the current shitshow. What should have happened is that there was a properly researched and funded plan in place to address the gaps that leaving the EU would bring to the fore. An example of this is tradespeople. I live in North Wales and there were plenty of Europeans (particularly Poles) working in industries where there was a shortage of trained British workers. Immediately the results were known there should have been a properly executed plan to train young people to fill these roles. never happened.
In addition to that, we could have hoped that the EU would have acted in a responsible and mature way and actually eased the transition in terms of future relationships. They didn't. They went out of their way ( like a partner on the wronged side of a divorce) to make things as awkward and difficult as possible. You can argue that 'We left, that was our decision', but it didn't have to be that way.
I think it is over simplifying things to assume that anyone who did, or considered, a vote to leave the EU is some sort of brainless knuckledragger. It isn't that simple.

It’s not purely the fault of the people who voted to leave, it’s more down to the lies that were told by Johnson, Farage etc to convince people to vote to leave coupled with the shockingly poor performance of Cameron in leading the campaign to stay plus the disastrous decision to put it to the vote in the first place.

Anyone believing the BS of people like Boris or Farage is a bit thick in my opinion. No offence.

And racist, don't forget racist.

Was pleased to see this from Campbell:


Not surprised that he was less diplomatic to Phillips:

Was it Maitlis who said last year the "one from each side" approach was not balance?
