PRO BREXIT NEWSPAPERS PANICKING

Richard Corbett, the labour MEP, thinks pro brexit newpapers are beginning to panic (HERE). He has criticised the right-wing press about his amendments to an “obscure report” about Brexit as “silly and contrived” and said they're concerted attack on him shows they are panicking over the likelihood of a second EU referendum. Richard Corbett, deputy leader of Labour’s MEPs, was accused of “plotting to sabotage Brexit” by amending European Parliament legislation. He also drew criticism for suggesting Leave voters may want a second referendum in order to change their mind.

This chimes a little with Nick Cohen's piece (HERE) questioning why the right wing press is so angry. Nick thinks it's because they fear "the demagogic rage and charlatan tricks they have used against others will one day be used against them". One day the lies used by the leave campaign and the press will be exposed for what they are.
