Our economy is performing far worse because of Brexit.
You say that as a statement, but the fact, the figures, the figures track.
No, I'm making a different point.
I'm saying that the guy who was a big author of Brexit has paid no political price because you and Labour have made a judgment not to make him do so.
And it's not about relitigation, this.
It's not.
It's about character.
It really is.
And this goes back to the point about Trump.
If you allow right-wing populist leaders who lie a lot, who change their story a lot... So left-wing lies are okay, but right-wing...
No, because I don't think we do.

We're here until you admit I'm right.
I'm not going to relitigate Brexit.
I'm simply, I'm not.
I'm making a bigger, what I think is a bigger point that relates to this.
If you have a populist polarizing post-truth politician like Farage, unless that is called out all the time by the people trying to stop him, you are playing his game.

But that's not a Brexit thing.
