Daily Mail columnist’s Brexit take gets precisely the takedowns it deserves

Fortunately for him they hadn’t engraved the ‘worst take of 2017’ trophy so he can still win it.

And here’s precisely the responses it deserved online.

Except India – and Pakistan – campaigned for independence for decades and thousands of lives were lost, then millions over Partition. Foolishness.
