Beyond fake promises and blind faith, is there a glimmer of hope for post-Brexit NHS politics?

The main 'leave' narrative blamed the wrong people, but people may yet realise they've been duped - and there are some interesting flashpoints ahead.

I am furious with those on the left who advocated Leave.

Whatever their motives, that judgement was blind to the upsurge of racism which Brexit was always going to trigger - here and across Europe. Whatever the anti-racist opinions, credentials or track record of left Leavers, the referendum was not about them or their parties, and its consequences, on that front, are bad for all of us.
