Broken Britain

This tweet from the FT has gone viral:
 
“Firstly, it was the working class who voted for us to leave because they were economically disregarded and it is they who will suffer the most in the short term from the dearth of jobs and investment…
 
Secondly, the younger generation have lost the right to live and work in 27 countries…
 
Thirdly, and most significantly, we now live in a post-factual democracy. When the facts met the myth they were as useless as bullets off the bodies of aliens in a HG Wells novel.
 
When Michael Gove said the British people are sick of experts he was right.
 
But can anyone tell me the last time a prevailing culture of anti-intellectualism has led to anything other than bigotry?”
 
 
A dark day for Britain. “
