Sarah Wollaston MP (Con) defects to Remain? Sarah Who?

Apparently a Tory MP called Sarah Wollaston has switched sides from out to in in the Brexit debate. I take some interest in politics and could just about place this Sarah Wollaston. She is a doctor, I think, but that is about all I know about her. And I am not so sure about even that. And so from the 99% of the country who care even less about politics than I do this will be a question of Sarah Who?

The media and political classes have something to chatter about. But, for once, this decision, the vote on the EU, will be taken not by them but but the great uinwashed, you and me, we the people. One Sarah Who is one vote heading from Brexit to Remain. One suspects that after last nights debate between Boris and the charming lefty Gisela and the three witches of Remain: the SNP midget, uber-harpie Angela Eagle and the airhead careerist Amber Rudd, many more folks were heading the other way.

The three witches just kept banging on about Boris wanting to be PM. In the Westminster bubble they might care about the naked ambition of Boris but the rest of us are more concerned about the 75 million Turks who might be moving in next door in a few years time; or the £350 million we piss away each week on the EU; or the fact that 55% of our laws are now made in Brussels not by ghastly Westminster creeps like Rudd and Eagle.

The three witches came across as nothing more than unpleasant politicians. Boris came across as amiable Boris. Everyone seems to love Gisela, she is just a nice person. In terms of won the argument, that debate was another win for Brexit which makes it three in a row for Brexit vs Project Fear.
