10 questions for Remainers, from a Remainer

We told them so, didn’t we? We said it was a terrible idea and would all end in tears. We pointed out that the UK doesn’t send £350 million a week to Brussels, that Turkey was not about to join the EU, and that Britain held the weaker hand and couldn’t dictate the terms of any new relationship.

Now, 30 days out from our supposed departure date, Remainers find ourselves in the strongest position yet to thwart Brexit. Parliament has been unprorogued, the government’s hands have been tied, its majority obliterated, and opposition parties have learned to work together (more or less) to frustrate ministers.

But — there was always going to be a ‘but’ — at the height of Remainers’ political power, where does our intellectual case stand? I have ten questions for my fellow Remainers.

1. Where do we go from here? 

Remainers are great at saying what we’re against, but what exactly are we for? One of the reasons it’s taken our side so long to reach this advantageous position is that we have failed to agree a common agenda.
