Daniel Hannan: Corbyn’s first instinct in a national crisis is to treat it as a way to attack the Tories – much to Putin’s satisfaction

Daniel Hannan: Brexit will be a success, but swivel-eyed Remainers make the process more costly than it needs to be

The message that some send to Brussels – that if the Eurocrats make it all painful enough then we can be bullied into changing our minds – is mistaken but harmful.

Daniel Hannan: Leave.EU and Arron Banks – the Brexiteers that the Remain campaign loved

And here’s the thing: Banks knew it. Farage knew it. But they didn’t care. Their primary objective was to be seen to lead the campaign, not to win it.

Just as the MPs of the 1970s realised the need to understand economics, the MPs of the 21st Century must understand how we think, and why.

Daniel Hannan: There’s far more agreement on the terms of Brexit than the pundits suggest
