Hard to be more active when the architects of Brexit have strongly made clear that they’ve “had enough of experts” when they failed to find a single expert economist who thought Brexit was a good idea[1].

I don’t know which is sadder that our current leaders are so incompetent or that people must have known that and voted them in with a big majority anyway. Speaks to how poor the opposition were too.

A pox on both your houses! :P

Full Gove quote: "I think the people in this country have had enough of experts with organisations from acronyms saying that they know what is best and getting it consistently wrong."

The ones _getting it consistently wrong_ being key... yet rarely quoted.

We should be keeping track of predictions from those who want to be called experts, and retrospectively grading them/enumerating their successes and failures.
