I have been published on Brexit Spotlight. The article is called, “Back to the single market? Pressure grows for new deal”. It reviews the macro economic reporting and increasingly obvious failure of Brexit, it critiques the Labour Party leadership’s recent response reported at least by me in these two blog articles, Sensibleness Postponed, and my take on Lammy’s speech a week earlier , looks at other political forces within and outside the Labour Party. It highlights the Redfield Wilton opinion polling showing growing support for the single market and rejoining the EU and ends with a warning, that Labour “is terrified of setting out a principled case that seeks to lead, not follow, the electorate. Ironically, he i.e. Starmer risks losing Labour voters — especially young and working-age voters — with this strategy”. Obviously there is more detail in the Brexit Spotlight article and the two blog pieces.
