Remainers belatedly find that the European Union is a bully

Rather belatedly the remain lobby have come to realise that the EU is a bully which kicks people around.

Just weeks into the operation of the protocol, the EU had decided it can impose a border on the island of Ireland. Why?

The organisation which spent years telling us that it was all about peace and saving lives, particularly in Northern Ireland, wants to stop us getting lifesaving vaccines in the middle of a pandemic.

Imagine the vitriol which would be directed at Brexiters if this could be blamed on them.

Northern Ireland is Brussels’s football.
