I have an awful lot of time for Campbell, I really do not and never will understand why he is despised by many on the left. I am sure he is right in much of what he says too.
Those that are so powerful and persuasive overseeing their puppets in Government do need reining in. I am all for a sovereign independent country, but not one that allows the few to dominate and control the people and their wealth and aspirations. As a brexit voter I have been truly dismayed at some of the unfolding scenes. I am not particularly naive though, but equally not the brightest mind and appreciate some of the behaviours and outcomes of the state actors involved were predictable. I do think the time has come where the country has to move forward and work with where we are, railing against things right now is not the way to help the country and its future.
I am totally supportive of Starmer’s stance for now. If, and it is an if, Brexit proves a mistake, and It may or may not be (railing against it is definitely shooting ourselves in the left foot, even if Brexit were proved to be shooting ourselves in the right foot) we need to move forward together and not continue this constant tug of war that will only pull the country down quicker and everyone will lose out even more, along with it. Future generations will have the opportunity to reverse it in time if that is the case. Is that really worth the agony of continued bitter in fighting, even if you eventually were to get to say I told you so? I hope most people are bigger than that.
