Read Now We’re Doomed! Brexit Revisited PDF
If ever anyone in the future wants to understand the power of language to move, to enrage, inspire or divide they would do well to explore something of the etymology and impact of the word: Brexit. Brexit has come to mean different things to different people and this book explores some of the decisive moments in the UK’s tortuous journey towards the exit from its membership of the European Union. Drawing on a series of diary entries and vignettes associated with Brexit it seeks to shed fresh light on a topic that continues to polarise opinion at every turn. Regardless of where you stand on Brexit here is an opportunity to revisit key episodes as well as aspects neglected or ignored by the mainstream media. A tale of muddle, malice, and Theresa May – We’re Doomed! Brexit Revisited is a curious mélange, that is heartfelt, often sanguine, and decidedly different. It does not claim to be a comprehensive account of the 2016 Referendum or of what followed; rather it manages to capture some of the anxieties, preoccupations and yes indeed the hopes around Brexit. From the Bangladeshi Diaspora, to how things looked from Copenhagen this book presents a blend of personal observations and more in-depth analysis. It is a book that some will take against just like the word Brexit itself, and that is because for all its apparent simplicity it has the inferring ability to get to the essence of some of the key elements associated with Brexit. Whether the UK’s departure leads to it being doomed remains to be seen, but here is a book that has managed to capture some of the mood of the 2016 Referendum and explains why Brexit matters. Essential reading for all Brexitologists.
