A letter headed "Unlike us, Brexit isn't ageing well", which appeared in the Hull Daily Mail on 13 March 2026. Peter Packham, Chair of Leeds for Europe, notes comments from a previous correspondent about members' photos on its website. Mr Packham says opposition to Brexit has wide support across the generations and urges potential supporters to join European Movement UK or Young European Movement.
#Brexit isn't aging well, says Chair @leedsblue67.bsky.social in this @hulldailymail.co.uk letter — unlike our 'young at heart' #RejoinEU campaigners. #BrexitReality #UKPolitics

Time to #RejoinEU
Letter To The Editor headed "We're not broke", which appeared in The Yorkshire Post on 13 March 2026. The author refutes a previous correspondent's assertion that the UK is "almost bankrupt" and so cannot afford to be a member of the European Union. A closer trading relationship with the EU and eventually rejoining will create great opportunities to boost the UK economy, this writer argues.
Is #Brexit Britain "almost bankrupt", meaning we can't afford #EuropeanUnion membership?
Or...
Is the state of the #UKEconomy so precarious we can't afford to ignore the opportunities #EU membership would open up?

A letter published in the Yorkshire Evening Post on 12 March 2026, headed "A few polling generalisations". The writer takes issue with an earlier correspondent who said polling is unreliable and should be ignored. This correspondent believes that is because he wants to discourage people from paying attention to surveys showing how unpopular Brexit (Britain leaving the European Union) is proving to be.
Polls showing #Brexit is unpopular frustrate the minority still backing leaving the #EuropeanUnion – says @yorkshireeveningpost.co.uk letter.
Numbers they’d rather ignore:
🇪🇺 59% #RejoinEU vs 41% stay out – whatukthinks.org
🇪🇺 83% of 16–25s back #RejoinEU – @itvpeston.bsky.social

Despite perceptions, it wasn't 'mostly'. There was only one percentage point between the national vote and that of the farming demographic in that sordid 2016 Referendum. A nation has reaped the bitter harvest of #BrexitReality. None are unscathed.

Oh gawd, expect outrage and "fury" from all the usual places in tomorrow's Mail and Express.

I know what you mean. Out of office, Peter Kyle came across as one of the more sensible MP's. Clearly, part of becoming a minister involves having half of your pre-frontal cortex surgically removed.

Is this a joke?
This has to be a joke, right?
Have these morons learned nothing from the past 20 years?

I wonder if farmers in the EU are having the same problems?

Morning! Turns out shouting “sovereignty” doesn’t lower bills, fix trade, or stop queues at Dover. Working with friends does. Funny that. Let’s rejoin Europe. 🇪🇺 #BrexitReality #ReJoinEU

Another Brexit white elephant.
£111 million on this, and £100 billion on that, and pretty soon you're talking about real money.

He's gone, part of the #Brexodus, but i'm sure he visits his UK money regularly. Capital is mobile. You are not.
The joys of Europe now belong ONLY to those Britons with serious wealth or a fortunate accident of birth. He has both.

Exhibit A: #LeaveLies promising a better-than-EU-Membership EU-UK deal
Exhibit B: UK Government projection.
No need to depict Exhibit C, the subject now under discussion: #BrexitReality with a hit to the UK economy now within the margins of A NO-DEAL ECONOMIC CRASH.
#WelcomeToTheBrexit mate.
"I know what I voted for" became a typical whining Brexiteer response when challenged as #UK hurtled towards a cliff edge. Did anyone knowingly vote to do #Epstein's bidding?

We have a #Labour government that is fixing the foundations of our country after 14 years of Tory decline! We have a Labour chancellor whose economic strategy is working #KeirStarmer vs #BrexitReality #NigelFarage #LizTruss #BorisJohnson
Britain should pray that Starmer survives. If he falls, the likeliest successor will come from the left quarter. Britain is about to get a government it did not and would not vote for. www.ft.com/content/c9a2... via @FT #Labour #BrexitReality #NigelFarage #populism #FutureOfEurope

A letter headed “Now give the people another say on Brexit”, which appeared in The Yorkshire Post on 11 February 2026. The writer says a national newspaper, the Daily Express, is now calling for “a proper Brexit” - interpreted as a more extreme version than the one already implemented. The writer suggests the public should first have another vote on whether the UK should rejoin the European Union.
Brexiters & their media want ‘a proper #Brexit’. @yorkshirepost.co.uk letter asks if new #EuropeanUnion vote is what’s needed.
#BrexitReality means we’ll all be better able to make #RejoinEU decision: “Before pontificating about ‘a proper Brexit’, find out if it’s what we want.”
Do you agree?
