BOURNEMOUTH, England - Britain’s Liberal Democrats face the fight of their lives to rescue the country from the negative effects of leaving the EU, party leader Jo Swinson said on Tuesday, outlining the battle for hearts and minds in the next few weeks.
That has raised the prospect of an unmanaged, no-deal exit - something Johnson says his government is preparing for, but which opponents of Brexit say will wreak havoc on Britain’s $2.8 trillion economy. “Ahead of us we have the fight of our lives for the heart and soul of Britain,” she said. “The next few weeks are about deciding the kind of country that we are, who we want to be.”
Swinson attacked Johnson’s exit strategy as “sickening” and warned voters not to trust his ability to strike a new deal in the next month, nor believe his assertion that a no-deal Brexit can be managed. By reshaping their liberal, centrist organization into a party at one extreme of the Brexit spectrum they are hoping to cash in on the anger of the 16 million voters who backed ‘remain’ in the 2016 referendum on leaving the EU.
