The British Government’s view of Northern Ireland reminds me of how the Dursleys underestimated Harry Potter and thought he was just their inconsequential nephew who lived under the stairs.

It’s horrifying to see everything we knew Brexit would cause happening in front of our eyes - thousands of jobs going abroad, failure of investment, total absence of trade framework #BrexitReality #LetsJustStopIt

Latest report on Russian interference makes it clear that ‘will of the people’ was manipulated and result of EU referendum is unsound. We simply can’t go ahead with such a massive national change as Brexit on the basis of a flawed mandate and electoral criminality #StopBrexit
