Daily Mail SCOOP! Anti-Brexit campaigners plan to campaign against Brexit

An absolutely devastating exposé.

By Media Mole

Your investigative fellow moles over at the Daily Mail have clearly been digging deep lately, because they’ve uncovered the story of the year: some campaigners… are campaigning.

Yes, you heard it at the Mail first! An anti-Brexit campaign organisation is planning a campaign against Brexit.

“PLOT TO SUBVERT BREXIT EXPOSED,” yells its splash. If “plot” means “stated and publicised intention” and “exposed” means, erm, “writing some words”.

The DEVASTATING exposé is that the political campaign group, Best for Britain – which describes its mission as “fighting to keep the UK open to EU membership” – is, well, fighting to keep the UK open to EU membership.

Leaked documents seen by the newspaper show that “a pro-Remain group has launched a six-month plan to stop Britain leaving the EU”, which, y’know, would be surprising if it wasn’t its sole reason for existing.
