Kneel Britannia

Britain will crawl back to the empire they escaped?

This is sad:

Sir Keir Starmer is at it again. Not content to merely thwart the democratic will of the people over attempted delays to local council elections, his government is now seeking to rejoin the EU through the backdoor. As if 'dynamic alignment' on everything from food standards to carbon emissions wasn't bad enough, Labour wants to guarantee we keep playing by EU rules through something called 'secondary legislation'. This means ongoing legislation to tie us to EU laws gets authorised by ministers rather than by new updated legislation in the Commons. 

Nice knowing you, constitutional monarchy.

The EU punished Britain for Brexit. And Remainers in Britain eager to bend the knee to Brussels undermine an independent Britain. Naturally, British opinion once narrowly for Brexit eroded.

Mission accomplished. 

And so now, Britain will--after many centuries--finally be stronger in Europe.

I'd add that I am unhappy that America didn't forge trade deals with Britain to reinforce their independence. But I'm not sure it would have mattered with the forces in political Europe and in Britain itself working to overturn Brexit from the start.
