That was a good argument. Most backbench lawmakers have a clear grasp of the many ways Brexit is hurting the UK, particularly its economy. Parents and grandparents will recognize that lawmakers are harming the opportunities open to young people in our country.
Reform lawmakers probably understand this too. I don't understand. Lawmakers representing the Brexit party's successors did not mind coming to debate. They want to avoid humiliation and the embarrassment of trying to protect those who are unable to defend.
Perhaps the only biggest disappointment from Monday's debate was Labour MPs who felt plagued by their commitment in the general election manifesto to not rejoin the EU or European single market and customs union.
Monday's discussion was prompted by a petition on the Congress website. The Labour MP's comments brought new interest in another petition on the Congress website.
The petitioner's organizers have said on social media that there is nothing in the worker manifesto that would hinder this. His petition can be viewed and signed at petition: pition.parliament.uk/petitions/700041.
