One of the main things that the party needs to do, if it is to have any chance of recovery, is to become clearly more democratic. That means giving more power to the members, and in particular, making the leadership selection procedure much less biased in favour of the MPs. If they can't change the rules quickly enough, then MPs need to swallow their pride and give the members the choice between the 2 candidates they actually like best - Boris or Raab.

No rational person claims that we could leave the EU and keep the benefits intact. (And don't quote Hannan at me. The famous claim is not as clear as you think it is, in part because Hannan demonstrably misquoted himself during the interview. Search and you will find. In any case, Hannan was not in a position to promise anything whatsoever.)

Better dump May quick, or Farage will chew your bones.

Remainers like to confuse the argument by referring to certain leaver prophecies of a good deal with the EU. These were not part of the referendum question, nor were they promises, because the people who made them were quite obviously not in a position to make promises about a future deal. They were statements of personal belief, and only a complete fool would ever have taken them as guarantees. Certain remainers like to claim that they were such fools, but I suspect that they are not in fact so stupid, merely misrepresenting the facts about their own past beliefs.
