I hope that by reform he means back in the single market?
We have to start to undo some of the damage done!!
Brexit Blues
A shortage of staff.
We’ve driven them away.
Cut all the standards.
Robbed them of their pay.
They’re still in denial
As Brexit takes it’s toll.
The economy’s shrinking.
We’re digging a black hole.
Can’t get the workers.
Haven’t got the skills.
There’s no raw products.
Hit with soaring bills.
They tell us it’s global forces,
We’ll soon be in Brexit heaven.
But there’s no sunny uplands.
Worst in the G7!
The cost of living
Has gone through the roof.
How much misery
Before you have the proof?
Is it worth all this poverty
To take back control?
They promised us the earth
Now we’re buried in the hole!

Project Fear turns out to be Project Reality!! We should have done what parliament was urging – to compromise!
We should have left the EU and stayed in the Customs Union and Single Market!
Johnson, Gove, Farage, May and the rabid loony ERG forced us to shoot ourselves in the head.
Now our economy is freefall. After twelve years of Tory cuts and austerity, during which they’ve been breeding millionaires and billionaires like maggots, we are rewarded with another decade of cuts and austerity.
Nothing is working.
Poverty, food banks, warm hubs, closures, shortages, low pay, strikes, cardboard cities, homelessness, freezing pensioners, crime, lack of care and support, education in crisis and Tory millionaires.
The huge amount of money squandered, wasted and doled out to Tory donors through VIP lanes – £37 billion on a test and trace system that never worked, tory contracts for useless PPE, £40 Billion lost in handouts. What a shambles.
But people like Rees-Mogg have made millions out of it.
Cameron, Osborne, Johnson and Farage are making millions.
Even Hancock, in the jungle, is not freezing to death!!
They promise the earth, lie, cheat, swindle, profit and deliver shit!!!
Jumping Ship
The jaguars and minis are rusting in the park.
The money drained away as the country lost its spark.
Company after company is busy jumping ship.
Like rats busy fleeing from the coming dip.
The gateway to Europe is being slammed shut.
Wages will tumble as cut follows cut.
Cutting off our noses, shooting off our feet
As Boris and Mogg lay the seeds of our defeat.
Madness and nationalism rules all their minds
As wheels of more bureaucracy relentlessly grinds.

There was always a mad nationalistic rump of the Tory Party who were busy flirting with fascism. Nobody thought they would ever gain ascendancy and actually take over. But they have.
Tories are bad enough but these ideological monsters, harking back to fairy-tale days of empire, are the pits.
They are dragging us down to an impoverished future.
Already companies are heading off to Europe. The wealth is draining away.
Brexit Blues
I’ve got the Brexit Blues
And the Trump grump
Being fed the toxic news
By the great orange chump.
Divide and rule
The faithful get their dues.
Dismantle all that’s good
The victors get to choose.
Billions gone
At the stroke of a pen
Through the caustic lies
Of power-mad men.
I’ve got the Brexit Blues
And the Trump grump
Being fed the toxic news
By the great orange chump.

We’ve been led up the garden path by power-mad men who have duped us with their lies.
They work on fear and hate, target certain groups – immigrants and Muslims this time – and create division.
Their actions will cost us dear. Already Brexit has cost us billions. It will make us all the poorer.
This is the face of the new populist fascism.
