  1. She won't play Bozo's game. She asked a question, he didn't answer. The question was, why don't you drop VAT right now like you promised you would. Bozo tried to deflect by going to his happy place, Brexit. Raynor get him back on the increased tax burden for working class people, which has nothing to do with Brexit but rather with Tory mismanagement of the economy. Calling out Bozo's lies in Parliament is tricky due to the rules forbidding MP's to call each other liars, even when they are. In a functioning democracy, it would be the press that crucifies a lying PM, and after that, his own back benchers.

  2. Tories have been doing exactly that for the last 30 years at least.

  3. Getting back in the EU is not on the menu. The EU will not have you back until the UK / England has demonstrated an overwhelming and sustained desire to rejoin. Then, there will be a long period of re-alignment where a lot of unpopular demands will need to be met, like replacing the Pound for the Euro and modernizing the political system. It will take at least 20 years, far beyond the scope of a single government. Re-aligning with the EU will be the best Labour can offer. Then the next government can perhaps rejoin the Single Market and the Customs Union, but I think that will also require broad, bi-partizan support before the EU will even consider it. We do not want a situation where after 5 years the new government can just reverse its course and start this mess anew. Sad to say, the damage the Tories have done is both serious and permanent. And things will get worse before they can get better. Next step will be the dissolution of the UK, and a continued slide into authoritarianism for England. Or perhaps England will violently prevent dissolution, I don't know. In that case, the whole UK will be dragged down with England.
