THEY SAID WHAT?

“This is the dawn of a new era in which we no longer accept that your life chances - your family’s life chances - should depend on which part of the country you grow up in” - Prime Minister Boris Johnson in his “address to the nation” on Brexit day.

“I am very, very worried for the UK. I think it is a profound mistake in history, if you are going to do something you need to have a plan for what you are going to do next”

- The EU’s longest-serving MEP Bill Newton Dunn speaks of his concerns on Brexit day.

“I want families to be able to live together, whether that’s in Europe or here, and I want people in this country, in the United Kingdom, to be able to go and study in Europe just as they can now and people in Europe to be able to come and study here”

- Labour leadership contender Sir Keir Starmer pledges to reverse Boris Johnson’s end to freedom of movement for European Union citizens in the UK if he becomes

prime minister.

- Nicola Sturgeon, above, predicts Brexit will lead to the break-up of

the United Kingdom.

“I never really talked about how I often felt like I was preyed upon when I was a teenager. A lot of men who are not that way were surprised to hear that that is how it is to be a young woman or to be a woman in general. So, I think, most importantly, having the conversation has been really interesting”
