"Sunshine and no bank holidays helps better #UK GDP #growth" says this #BBCNews headline. Obviously all we need is stop taking holidays for us to experience those #SunlitUplands of #Brexit!

Numbers of French & German tourists to the UK are down since Brexit. 2 reasons are cited.

1 - Many don’t have full passports but use their National ID cards as proof of identity when travelling within the EU. UK’s xenophobia now bars them unless they have full passports.

2 - Many of them regard the UK as unfriendly towards foreigners. I wonder what gives them that idea?

@LenoreSimson@twitter.com @NileGardiner@twitter.com I wish to register a complaint.
This #SunlitUplands #Brexit nonsense is dead. It has ceased to be. It's a stiff. It is deceased. It's bereft of life. It has kicked the bucket.
If it hadn't had been for the bleeding lies, it would've snuffed it years ago.
