Tory Brexit plans are ‘sh*t-headed nonsense’, claim other Tories

Brexit has caused a problem for the Tories. Before the referendum, half the party were saying it would be the worst thing ever. The other half claimed otherwise. And now they have to deliver it – despite everyone knowing 50% of them think it’s shit.

This problem is magnified by the fact that they can’t even agree what Brexit should be. This means the party is torpedoing every proposal it raises in the most spectacular act of self-sabotage since…

…err…

…hmm. There have been so many instances of Tory self-sabotage recently, it’s hard to choose.

Let’s just say the 2017 general election and move on.

Two tribes

The Tories have numerous ideas about Brexit. Most of them are terrible, and several have already been vetoed by the EU. The main two camps could be described as the ‘Leavers?’ and the ‘LEAVERS!’

The Leavers? are demanding the following:

  • Keep things basically the same but worse.
  • Constantly make it clear they’re only doing this because they have to.
  • Use catchphrases like ‘Zumba Brexit’ over actual ideas.

The LEAVERS!, meanwhile, are demanding:

  • Europe be literally scratched off the map.
  • ‘French toast’ to be renamed a ‘Jacob Rees-Mogglette’.
  • Importers to have their ships sunk by our mighty submarines.
  • A land war with Ireland (and anyone else who wants some).
  • Mandatory national service in morris dancing clubs.
  • Resurrection of the Robin Reliant.
  • Creation of a new aristocracy populated by male and female clones of Nigel Farage.
  • Return of the seven-day week and free jobs for all children.

Ugh

Both sides have been publicly letting everyone know how shit the other is. One side will have to win in the end though. And then it’s up to the Tories to implement a plan which Tories have spent several months telling us is dog shit.

Good stuff.

We know everyone is suffering under the Tories - but the Canary is a vital weapon in our fight back, and we need your support

The Canary Workers’ Co-op knows life is hard. The Tories are waging a class war against us we’re all having to fight. But like trade unions and community organising, truly independent working-class media is a vital weapon in our armoury.

The Canary doesn’t have the budget of the corporate media. In fact, our income is over 1,000 times less than the Guardian’s. What we do have is a radical agenda that disrupts power and amplifies marginalised communities. But we can only do this with our readers’ support.

So please, help us continue to spread messages of resistance and hope. Even the smallest donation would mean the world to us.
