Our MP Nigel Adams has
criticised anyone who warned that Brexit was a leap in the dark. On 21st
February 2016 he told us "he believed" we would be better off outside the
EU (HERE) and went on to
say that during the campaign phrases like "leap in the dark" would be
trotted out regularly by those who wanted to remain. Well, yes that was true. But a month earlier he himself
was concerned about agriculture after Brexit.
"Does my hon. Friend share
my concern that when asked at the Oxford farming
conference how things might look for agriculture if we were outside the EU, the Secretary
of State confirmed that the Government had not made any investigation of, or
spent any resource on, what an exit might look like for agriculture?"
So, knowing the government had
done no work at all on what Brexit would mean for farmers, just three weeks later he still went ahead
and urged a leave vote – and even warned that others would say that it was a leap in the dark - when he knew that is exactly what it was!
What a dangerous fool we have as an MP.
