Coverage of idiots claiming ‘betrayal’ or ‘surrender’ isn’t just bad journalism, it’s a dereliction of our duty to explain things. I’d actually forgotten just how bad it got but here we are, straight back to treating liars & spivs like authorities of equal weight to experts & honest brokers.

Fishermen were heavily shafted by Brexit, and promised the world. Brexit was the betrayal, this just puts some of the damage right.
We know they're talking bollocks & that the only people's interests they care about is their patrons, but we also know some people believe it, but, much worse, it also intimidates those who are really working for us, so that they cower & don't act.
If that stage isn't done then those implementing the change are not interested the widespread good - they are charlatans; the liars and spivs you mention and their appeasers.
Brexit itself was a betrayal.
Sounds like we’re stuck in 2016, which is no surprise in a country that prefers looking backwards.
Our EU friends really pushed back on those snide questions!
I may laugh a lot. 😂🤣
I would love to know if this is about the gist of it… Thank you

The UK joined the common market, that was the reason given in the 80's for why we were poor.
EU? bendy bananas, regulations etc. That's why the UK is poor.
Left the EU? That's why the UK is poor.
Capitalism just doesn't want to share. Any excuse will do.
But as yet today I haven't felt able to turn on a single UK news outlet or radio station for fear of hearing that insufferable tripe. I guess I was right?
They had 8 years to sort it out and didn't.
And now they think Starmer is betraying them!
Even if he didn't there are a lot of Little Englanders which are racist shits and that's the only thing that Nasty Nige or CONS bring up us immigration & boats!
Nigel Farage isn’t loyal to the UK. He should be punished for his disgraceful behaviour as MEP, for disinformation, anti EU, racist lies.
R/wing media is complicit. Shameful not to report the truth
He doesn’t give a fuck and never has done since elected.
I feel all queasy but inside I'm very happy.
At last we have adults in the room.
ANYTHING that seeks to reverse this, repair the damage and strengthen the bonds with our allies can only be a good thing!
We just need FroggieFace to confirm it now on Question Time and it must be true!
bad news, it's another show about dinosaurs..
a metaphor of some kind, no doubt..
Why is Reform their first port of call for a comment on practically everything. 🤯
It makes me rage! 😡
It's blatant and obvious lies peddled as facts now.
It doesn't deserve a response or publicity, and yet it will dominate the coverage.
Any Brexiter that doesn't welcome the edge being taken off the appalling deal that Johnson agreed to, for the benefit of business, the economy, the Exchequer, and jobs is a fool.
Weak Lab, but imagine how Reform govt will change BBC in 4yr.
I think we have gone beyond stupidity and entered acceptance.
I get that it's to do with sales - hate sells well. But is it only sales? I suspect not.
You have to have competent people to govern the country, even without their nasty views, they are a bunch of useless loudmouthed poorly educated clowns.
Net Zero cost to UK households is £250/yr
Brexit cost to UK households is £2000/yr
Why tell the truth? 🤬
Scotland got dragged out of Europe whilst being handcuffed to Engurland
The more extreme and shrill the response, the more those people have been proven wrong
We're doomed.
We are not rejoining under Starmer. As he has repeatedly said.
Unfortunately there’s quite a few people who think Starmer has been secretly rejoining all along, which is why they ignore all the reactionary BS Labour have been doing to chase Reform voters
I’m afraid to say that he really, really isn’t…
Don’t know about the right wing establishment infrastructure though.

Comments from Uncle Nigel and Badenock are beyond belief. Right wing press having the gall to talk about Starmer destroying all the positivity Brexit gave us
Fucking idiots aiming at lowest common denominator 😱
Any deal with the #EU will be described by Brexiters as a betrayal. But they need to explain what benefit from Brexit we lose through cooperation. They need to sell the benefit of our current impoverishment.
On seconds thoughts, they probably would.🙄
The EU is an "us" not a "them".
That has to be understood by "Brexiteers".
British politics is so toxic now we could not possibly vote you back at this point.
Hopefully, in a generation or 2, you can rejoin us.
The time of the idiots may be coming to an end.. 🤞
But yeah I know it's more complicated than that.
Embarrassing.

I think that’s the argument.
Politician’s in London don’t get that . It works the other way . My operation has to be done at Yeovil .
Showing how great and diverse our country is!
And agree that we should be celebrating our institutions that show diversity and breadth of life experience.
Guys and St Thomas doctors and nurses saved my life when I nearly died about 9 years ago.
An Indian surgeon and his team did that.
If it wasn’t for them etc..
