Is it a media thing or is it just too horror-triggering a catastrophe to mention in polite company?
Well, you're part way there with it being a media thing. Yes, the media being largely owned by anti-eu billionnaires has no wish to raise the brexit disaster. The BBC is controlled by supporters of the Tory party, and since it was the Tory party who implemented the brexit disaster from pitiful start (Cameron) to ludicrous end (Johnson), they won't mention it either. Tories and Labour are both terrified of "the right" like rabbits in a headlight, and both think salvation lies in making more and more "right friendly" decisions, such as "never even mention brexit again".
I cannot emphasise enough that the present labour party under Starmer has an almost magical ability to either avoid making any decision, or else make inexplicably wrong and feeble decisions. This results in an almost policy-free approach to the election. Starmer is being gifted this election because the tories have imploded and their support is now split between the right and the extreme right, with the extreme right having Farage and reform to vote for. One of the wrong and feeble decisions the labour party has made is to never mention brexit.
Yes. It's mind boggling. It's insane. It's the patient complaining of headaches and dizzy spells sitting amongst puzzled doctors, none of whom will mention the axe in his skull.He May Be Your Dog But He's Wearing My Collar
