We should rally round Boris, not carp about him The Prime Minister is fighting for the success of the nation. Has no one told the members of his party? 14 December 2020 • 7:00am God save us from Tory grandees, retired Aussie PMs and anyone else who is against Brexit and wants us to know about it. Yawn. Gentlemen, you are irrelevant. The world has changed in three key respects. First, I don’t know if anyone’s told you, but we left the EU on January 31. There’s no going back. Talking about the advantages of EU membership at this stage is like calling for the retention of the Corn Laws. What we’re on to now is the future relationship with the EU, which will, by dint of us having left, be different. So banging on about what’s been lost is pointless.
