Secret Brexit talks by Tories and Labour show they know it was a mistake. But only independence will allow Scotland to rejoin EU – Angus Robertson
Once upon a time, the UK Opposition was there to oppose the UK Government. Now it seems Labour are really nodding donkeys, agreeing with the Conservatives to cement Brexit just with minor tweaks. It should outrage all progressives in the UK that Labour is prepared to meet the Tories behind closed doors and work as a Westminster establishment to press on with hard Brexit.
It’s clearer than ever that the Tories and Labour are united in going against all good judgement and continuing the UK’s commitment to the most economically damaging policy this country has ever pursued. According to media reports, prominent Labour and Tory Brexiteers and Remainers met in private at Ditchley Park in Oxfordshire.

According to media reports, prominent Labour and Tory Brexiteers and Remainers met in private at Ditchley Park in Oxfordshire.
They broke bread during what was described as a “private discussion” on the subject of “How can we make Brexit work better with our neighbours in Europe?” One attendee said the discussion revolved around the notion that “Brexit is not delivering [and] our economy is in a weak position”. Quelle surprise!
Alongside the politicos attending were diplomats, civil servants and representatives from some of the world’s largest businesses, including Goldman Sachs. Noticeably, and despite the impact of Brexit being hardest upon and increasing the number of poor and vulnerable, it appears no charities, community groups, or campaigners tackling these issues were invited.
