No Second Chances - Morgan Jones - diskuze

Between 2016 and 2019, aunique coalition assembled within British politics. Combining Corbynite campaigners,Conservative Cabinet ministers, celebrities and grassroots activists, thisdisparate collection of forces was brought together by one aim: stoppingBrexit. What began as the unfocused belief that Britain must not leave theEuropean Union morphed into a mass movement: the People's Vote campaign, a messof organisations united by the call for a second referendum. From the stunts of youthcampaigners and the online antics of pro-EU influencers to the million-person marchesof 2019 and the launch of new centrist parties, many tactics, serious andunserious alike, were used to try to secure a fresh vote. A campaign premisedon telling the nation that they had got it catastrophically wrong was alwaysgoing to be hard, and it was only made more so by parliamentary maths thatnever quite seemed to add up. No Second Chances tellsthe dramatic, bizarre and at times embarrassing tale of the battle for a secondreferendum, the descent into infighting and the implosion of the People's Votecampaign in full for the first time. Based on exclusive interviews with thoseon the front line, this is the sensational inside story of one of recentBritish history's most feted roads not taken.
