Customs union, anyone?

Posted on

There was no need for the government to say the U.K. had to leave the customs union as a result of Brexit. The issue was not on the ballot paper. The policy was chosen by the government, not the referendum. We now know for sure that it was the wrong choice.

Wrong for the U.K. economy.

Wrong for Northern Ireland.

Wrong for British business.

Wrong for the people of this country who will pay the price.

And now wrong for the government, who face defeat on it.

There are, however, times when U turns must be done. This is one of them. And a U turn there must be.

This will not solve Northern Ireland: only the single market can do that. But let's take one U turn at a time. This one's time has come. May needs to deliver, now.
