I would not go as far as Labour in calling for the former Tory leader in the Senedd to be suspended. However, his likening peaceable and constitutional Remain supporters to the violent insurrectionists on Capitol Hill this week needs an official rebuttal and quickly. There is a danger that "Remainer" is going to go the same way as "Liberal" in the States as a pejorative with bad overtones.
And what is it with Brexiteers? There was the case only last week of John Redwood's warming over some economic arguments against the EU using carefully selected statistics. They won, and should get over it. Are they trying to distract attention from the already broken promises of Gove, Johnson and Cummings by raking up old arguments and new lies about the Remain campaign?
I am prepared to look for the (admittedly scant) positives of leaving the Union and move forward. Why do the Brexiteers not move on too?
