Rees-Mogg (minister for proving that Brexit isn't a pile of crap) recently and ridiculously congratulated the government on being at the forefront of Russian sanctions – which they are demonstrably not. Frankly, having been the home of vast Russian money laundering for many years, it’s probably best something they shut up about. But there may be another link between the Ukraine war crime and Brexit.
Mad Brexiters told us Brexit was shit because of
covid (even though the referendum was 4 years prior and everything was supposed
to be marvellous the day after).
Now we are being told (by, for example, the
Torygraph last week) its Ukraine's fault. Before he abandoned the rotten,
sinking Brexit ship, Lord Frost, then Brexit Minister, threatened the EU with
article 16 (a unilateral action trigger within the Norther Ireland Protocol) so
many times it became a bad joke. Then Liz Truss, current Brexit Secretary and
Minister for foreign photo opportunities did the same. Fanatic Brexiters now
say they cannot trigger the fabled article 16 to wave a magic wand over the
cold turd which is Brexit and warm it through because of the current
international crisis.
At some point will any of them just admit Brexshit is shit because its shit and it’s getting shittier?
The reality is, in history exam questions of the
future - along with the Trump effect, Western complacency, eye-watering levels
of London oligarch money-laundering, a clown British PM and Putin's own
megalomania, something else will be postulated as a green light to Putin to
invade Ukraine - the lunacy, self-harm and stupidity exhibited by Brexit.
