Brexit branded ‘dog’s dinner’ in parliament poster campaign

- By JENNIFER MCKIERNAN

Posters proclaimin­g Brexit is a “dog’s dinner” and a “cock-up” have been paraded around the Houses of Parliament.

The People’s Vote campaign launched the new posters to highlight the mess politician­s have made of Brexit and rally support for demanding a vote on the final deal. Politician­s made promises that could never be delivered and then quit and left everybody else to clear up after them, said For Our Future’s Sake co-founder Amanda Chetwynd-cowieson.

She said: “The gap between the Brexit promised two years and the mess being delivered on our doorsteps is getting bigger by the day. The Brexit elite like Jacob Rees-mogg and Boris Johnson are motivated more by the ambitious pursuit of their political careers than by Britain’s future or the national interest.

“Theconsequ­enceisabre­xitat-any-cost – like that favoured by Jacob Rees-mogg and Boris Johnson – a Theresa May deal where we still obey EU rules but have no say in how they’re made, or a blindfold Brexit where we don’t know the real costs until after we’ve left.”

The posters will be displayed at 30 sites across the country. The campaign will reach areas of the country which voted Leave but have now changed their mind, including Mr Johnson’s own constituen­cy of Uxbridge & Ruislip South. 0 The People’s Vote posters will be displayed at 30 sites
