The Mayor of London has spoken: βMy ultimate goal is to reverse Brexit.β Thatβs right β Sadiq Khan wants to climb back into the EU through the window Britain just shattered. And if that means stomping on the results of the biggest democratic vote in UK history? So be it β he brought his orthopaedic boots.
π§» Flush the Referendum, Weβre Going to Brussels!
Letβs take a moment to appreciate the gall here. Millions voted Leave. The country endured years of chaos, economic recalibration, political musical chairs β and now Sadiq Khan, from his high-rise of capital city smugness, wants to quietly undo the whole thing.
Heβs not even pretending anymore. This isnβt about βhealing divisionsβ or βlistening to voters.β Itβs about rewinding history because the result didnβt vibe with his worldview.
Never mind that the rest of the UK β the towns, the regions, the so-called βleft behindβ β voted with clarity. Khanβs plan? Rejoin the single market βin the meantimeβ and eventually boomerang us back to full EU membership β like Brexit was just a badly parked car heβll quietly reverse when no oneβs looking.
Hereβs the real punchline: this is the guy who constantly lectures on respecting democratic values. But apparently, those values have a shelf life β six years, tops β if they clash with metropolitan elitism.
London voted Remain. Khan is the mayor of London. Fair enough.
But heβs also a public servant in the United Kingdom. And openly plotting to reverse a national referendum doesnβt sound like leadership β it sounds like narrating your own coup in The Guardian op-ed section.
Brexit happened. It was messy. But it was also democratic. If you want to change that, try winning another referendum β not bypassing one with press releases and policy creep.
π₯Β ChallengesΒ π₯
Is reversing Brexit just a political fantasy β or a warning shot to the idea that referendums even matter anymore? Whatβs next: best-of-three? Should every vote come with a βreturn to senderβ form? Drop your righteous rage or well-honed cynicism in the blog comments. π¬π³οΈ
