Keir Starmer is not blameless when it comes to Brexit, but he is moving in the right direction. Even the Tories attacking him know that, says Guardian columnist Simon Jenkins
Do you agree that Brexit has been “a pointless waste of time, money and effort”?
I don’t think it was pointless at all. The point was to weaken Europe and sow chaos. It’s the Foundations of Geopolitics playbook and the hybrid warfare campaign has been such a success over the last decade that it will probably influence the next century knowing our luck.
Butbutbut the tankies told me that Foundations of Geopolitics was written by a crackpot and it didn’t hold any weight with Putin and the Russian government??

Bingo. And people like Nigel Farage are still laughing all the way to the bank to this day.
Very true.
