Guardian finds a good aspect of Brexit!

The Guardian ignores the faux outrage sparked by D Tusk's remarks that he thinks there is a special place in hell for Brexiteers. More offensive for me was the sentimental stuff about unity with Ireland. It is left to G Miller (below) to reproduce the quote:

As Mr Tusk himself said today: “I’ve been wondering what a special place in hell looks like for people who promoted Brexit without even a sketch of a plan how to carry it out safely.”

The environment correspondent of the Grduina reports that leaving the EU's Common Agricultural Policy might better protect the environment, according to a UK Government adviser, 'Dieter Helm, professor of energy policy at Oxford University'. Apparently, the CAP rewards those who grow most but the proposed UK replacement offers payment to those who protect the environment.

Naturally, this story cannot go unchallenged, at least at the cultural or morale level, and two side panels carry much more encouraging reports:

Peers and MPs receiving millions in EU farm subsidies 

No-deal Brexit would be catastrophic for food supply, say UK farmers

UK could use Brexit to avoid EU ban on antibiotics overuse in farming

 

 

Meanwhile, the Gurdina predicts house prices falls, sounding more like the Daily Mail. The headline says:
 

UK house prices fall in January as Brexit puts off buyers 

The copy is rather more modulated, as ever.:

House prices in the UK fell 2.9% in January from December and the annual growth rate slowed sharply as Brexit fears put off buyers, according to Halifax, one of Britain’s biggest mortgage lenders.[However] the monthly drop took the average house price down to £223,691 and came after a 2.5% rise in December. [And the MD of Halifax actually said]:“There’s no doubt that the next year will be important for the housing market, with much of the immediate focus on what impact Brexit may have. However, more fundamentally it is key underlying factors of supply and demand that will ultimately shape the market.”

And we finally learn what it is that G Miller, egregious Remain campaigner, actually wants -- a revival of the deal offered by the EC during negotiations with Cameron all those years (4) ago. (Tusk said the EC would allow us to operate for now in a kind of second-tier fringe.) May needs to accept she will never be able to get the cooperation of 'a mixture of fantasists, egotists and rightwing ideologues', says Miller. 

The Tusk deal led to the 2016 referendum in the first place, and was comprehensively rejected, or, as Miller puts it 'showed real promise in terms of addressing the issues that were, just a few months later, to dominate the referendum debate.'
