Foxed Again, Little People

Remoaners, Kremlin apologists and other agents of anti-Britishness have received a good telling-off from the Minister for International Cheese and Marmalade. Asked whether he was prepared to entertain the idea of remaining in the European customs union, the vole-brained Dr Fox replied, in effect, None of your business, plebs; which presumably means that Dr Fox has not yet undergone the series of surgical operations necessary to shoe-horn the customs union into his arvicolinoid understanding. On the process of triggering Article 50, Dr Fox proclaimed gnomically that "it's not a matter of legality, it's a matter of democracy" and then went on to complain about the Remoaners: "I ask myself what don't they understand about the words democracy, referendum or binary?" There are, it seems, a number of things which the vole-brained Dr Fox does not understand about the term democracy, as well as about a few others such as non-binding, change of circumstances, free trade, parliamentary sovereignty, national interest, pack of lies and one which he really ought to recognise from his stint as Minister for Werritty: unfit for public office.
