“I want to rejoin the EU!” Cummings blows Brown over ‘worst Brexit argument’ in sharp post | politics | News

The former campaign director at Voting Leave tweeted a series of pro-Brexit posts about the COVID-19 vaccine deployment, the success of his campaign’s arguments and how Eurosceptics would succeed another six years after the referendum. Former Prime Minister Gordon Brown, who supported Britain to stay in the Brussels bloc, was even criticized by Mr Cummings in a tweet for “bad politics” after the Scot proposed a way he proposed the Britain Stronger In- campaign could have won the 2016 referendum. .

Mr Cummings tweeted in response to remarks by the UK’s last Labor Prime Minister during a Guardian Live event in June 2021.

Mr Brown said at the event: “My idea for the slogan for the European campaign was ‘leader, do not leave’, because I think people should be proud of their country and proud of your country because they are a leading force in Europe is, I think, could have won people’s hearts and minds to stay in the European Union. ”

Dominic Cummings replied: “Gordon Brown on how Remain could have won. This is a widespread view.

“Reality: the ‘influence’ argument, so beloved in SW1, polled the ONLY argument for Remain.

“Elite SW1 politicians are really bad at politics.”

He added: “The best arguments were economic, but they performed very poorly – the arguments of many remaining that ‘we should have had a more positive campaign about how big the EU is’ are not supported by the research.”

During the speech at Guardian Live, the former prime minister also stated: “I want to rejoin the European Union.

“I will not give up. I did not support joining the euro because I did not think it would work for Britain, it was not because I objected to a single currency.

“I am not some crazy integration that will say, integrate, integrate, integrate in all situations.

“But I think our future is still European.”

Another tweet from Cummings published yesterday criticized Europhiles for continuing to trust the media and noted that if the campaign focuses on the European Court of Human Rights and if the referendum is held now, voting leave will continue with an even further majority will win.

He said: “If they look at the Remainiac Academy six years after the referendum, they are still overwhelming at JCR level. [junior common room level] of practical politics and have an astonishing degree of confidence in what they read in newspapers, if they dominated a referendum on EVRM they would be destroyed, and it would be much easier than in 2016. “

Another of Dominic Cummings claimed that although the vaccine deployment and the team around its success were only effective as a result of Brexit, the next action of the government stopped the overall momentum.

He said: “Vaccine task force and all the value it has created would never have happened without Brexit and voting leave in No. 10.

“Once we left, SW1 turned it back to a normal entity instead of targeting it at eg nasal vaccines, variants.”

Mr Cummings has left Downing Street as Boris Johnson’s chief adviser along with fellow Vote Leave campaigner Lee Cain amid reports that a power struggle has broken out in the heart of the government.

The former Vote Leave supreme has since pushed conservative MPs to oust his former boss.

However, Mr Cummings also targeted Labor leader Sir Keir Starmer and many of Mr Johnson’s potential successors, including Secretary of State Liz Truss.
