Enough with these Brexit-bashing bishops

Every wing of the establishment has tried to undermine the public’s decision to leave the EU.

Ever since the decision was made to hold a referendum on Britain’s membership of the EU, each new development has been greeted with scorn by various wings of the establishment. The largest vote in the history of British democracy has been denounced, at various points in the past few years, by MPs of all parties, the House of Lords, big business, bankers, lawyers, civil servants, the aristocracy, celebrities and more.

Today, it was the turn of the bishops to join this unholy alliance in bashing Brexit. The UK’s top Anglican bishops, including Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby, have signed an open letter in the Financial Times, the bible of modern capitalism, slamming the government’s Internal Market Bill. As the bill is about to be debated in the House of Lords, they urge their fellow peers to consider their ‘grave responsibility’ to the country. They warn that this ‘disastrous’ bill would undermine ‘democracy’ in Britain by challenging international law, among other things.
