This is an interesting piece of writing. At no point does it directly identify the father, leaving it for the reader to infer from context.

Probably a reasonable choice to "neither confirm nor deny" given the person in question.

#Brexit has failed... so now, as we know #Bexiters are casting around to find someone to blame...

But as Jonathan Freedland points out the narrative that they have been failed by #politicians has a fatal flaw... the Brexiters & their familiars have been running things for a while.

If you build your politics on lies, eventually, as I've said before, reality bites your bum!

The problem is its not Farage, Johnson et al who are paying the price; its the rest of us!

The "National conservatives" say

"No nation can long endure without humility and gratitude before God and fear of his judgment that are found in authentic religious tradition."

Not very different from "National socialists"
