I TAKE exception to the tone of Gill Scarlett’s letter ((Standard, October 25, “Sooner we get out of EU, the better”) and this paper inferring that I have called leavers, or sometimes called Brexiteers, “mindless morons”.

I have never called either side of the Brexit argument that.

The reference to the “smoke and mirrors” referred to Ivan Henderson’s concerns over Brexit and deprivation on the Harwich area while his party along with the liberal party are doing everything to delay it, if not have it abandoned.
