    These are just words. Set a date for a referendum or say nothing. Promisocracy is a disease.

      Him saying that publicly is braver than most things I heard from Labour politicians in the last years. No one had the courage to speak openly about even just the possibility of rejoining.

      How else to test the public opinion, but with promisocracy? It can be withdrawn at any time with an ‘obviously not now, but maybe one day if the people want it, ya know?!’
