I have never heard of the page OPEN BRITAIN so why am I shown as liking it ?? …. Along with many of my Corbyn Friends ?? ….. Something stinks !!
Dear Lesley,
The Government’s policy is now Brexit At Any Cost, as those in the driving seat have always wanted. Our task must be to expose relentlessly the cost to the country of rushing over the cliff’s edge.
As proud citizens of our country we believe that in the 21st Century we should maintain our partnership with the biggest political union and largest commercial market right on our doorstep.
WATCH me make this case in a speech for Open Britain this morning:

The British people voted to leave Europe and the will of the people should prevail. But the people voted without knowledge of the terms of Brexit. As these terms become clear, it is their right to change their will.
Making the best of a bad job doesn’t mean it is wise to put yourself in that position unless you have to.
Open Britain is leading the fight against hard Brexit. All groups must now come together, find ways of concerting strategy and tactics effectively, and build them into something stronger.
My new institute will create a policy platform which will go wider than the question about our future relationship with Europe. There is an urgent need to re-position the whole debate around globalisation and how we make it work for people. In this sense, the Brexit debate is part of something much bigger. You can sign up here to receive information about the work of the institute.
As I said in my speech: now is the time to get organised. The one incontrovertible aspect of politics today is that it can change. The will of the people can change. This is not the time for retreat, indifference of despair; but the time to rise up in defence of what we believe.
Thank you,
Tony Blair
Lesley Anne Perrin
