#marr show letting Sun “Brexposed” claims be repeated unchallenged. EU “secret plans” were press releases on Friday. They don’t make no deal OK. They give a seven-month grace period (révocable at any time) during which UK lorries/planes can work to and from EU *but not within it*
Fact checking post-lie is not ideal but not aiding in their spread is surely the bare minimum role of journalism.
