LIBBY PURVES It wasn’t the vote to Leave that shocked, it was the squawk of reaction by my own tribe

Lefties' carry-on is beyond parody

It has been a particularly grim couple of days for a soft-left newsaholic like me with a tenderness for the arts world.

To quote one performing artist’s tweet: “Ashamed. Terrified. Shocked. Horrified”.


Dramatists, novelists, comedians and songwriters are rarely celebrated for reflecting the concerns of the hidden millions rather than mocking. Once we had George Orwell and JB Priestley: now, it is almost comic to watch the affluent metropolitan left being cross with the zero-hours strugglers of Sunderland for disrespecting the instructions of a Tory PM and big business.

“How about every person who voted Leave be required to find a European & apologise to their face?”.

“How about every person who voted Leave be required to take a Muslim and deliver him to a whining European?”.

How many Muslim and dark skinned Brits come from British colonies?
