I hesitate to call Heseltine an idiot but he is certainly deceitful. He keeps going on about Brexit being a disaster when he must know that many Brexiteers so voted simply to allow us to govern ourselves – Britain has developed our preferred democratic system over this last 1000 years.
It might have been different had the EU demonstrated the rudiments of democratic control over the Commission. But at this it has consistently failed. It is therefore deceitful for Heseltine not to consider this point when declaring an imminent disaster.

He is optimistic for the future and therefore I reckon yesterday’s announcement of the formation of Miner One Limited is merely the start.
