A man who understands...

And where are the Conservatives on this, where are Brexiters on the whole matter of Ireland? Apart from the likes of Rees-Mogg parking his money safe in an EU country while touting Brexit to the rest of us, they are silent, because Northern Ireland never even occurred to them. Northern Ireland voted to stay in the EU, their leading party supports the government in leaving,not least because Theresa May bribed them with a billion to prop up her government. I can't even call it facile, because that would imply a superficial understanding of the issues, as opposed to no grasp of the issues at all.
Stephen Pound is that rare parliamentary being, a man who knows what he is talking about and cares too. I don't think I can vote for Jezzah, and Keir seems to be saying little and very cautiously, but I would vote for this man. Stephen Pound, I like you.
