GB News morning host Anne Diamond snapped at a leading Remainer columnist this morning after he suggested Britain rejoin the EU’s single market. Ms Diamond hit back, saying “we have done Brexit” as she warned against rehashing the same argument. This comes as Liz Truss enjoyed a warm welcome at the first meeting of the European Political Community in Prague, amid a thawing of relations between the UK and the EU.
GB News political editor Darren McCaffrey remarked that Ms Truss “has had an easier, more welcoming time on the continent than back home”.
Paul Connew, a columnist for the New European, told GB News that building bridges with Europe is the way forward, as he claimed: “The British public are turning against Brexit.”
He praised the Prime Minister’s reconciliation with her French counterpart Emmanuel Macron after Ms Truss called him “a friend”.
Ms Truss caused controversy during the Tory leadership race when she said the jury was out on whether President Macron was a “friend or foe”.
Mr Connew remarked: “It is a very good thing. I am a Remainer anyway so I think building better bridges back to Europe is good for us.
“Polls are showing that people are turning against Brexit. Reality is setting in.

“The last 12 opinion polls show the public is sceptical about Brexit, among both Remainers and Leavers.”
He mocked Ms Truss, claiming she had moved from “once a staunch Remainer, then a zealous Brexit convert, and now someone who looks keen to build bridges to Europe – more so than Boris Johnson”.
He continued: “There are Brexiteer Tories like Lord Hannan, who is advocating we should consider rejoining the customs union and single market without fully rejoining the EU.
“Whether the EU would buy that or not, I don’t know. It would be a massive boost to Britain’s economy.”
This prompted Ms Diamond to hit back: “We can’t have this argument all over again, can we?”
The fed-up host added: “We have done Brexit, haven’t we?”
