“One of the reasons why many British voters chose to leave the European Union was because they distrusted European institutions. Of all the many costs of Brexit, this was one I did not foresee: That it could wind up damaging the nation's faith in its own institutions too.”

“Democracy in some ways is a very illogical political system. When you win an election, you have to preserve the institutions that would make it possible for your political enemies to win next time. If you think about it, that's almost antithetical to human nature.”

“You don't have to be a political insider to know that Parliament, along with parts of the Government, has colluded in sabotaging Brexit.”

“Liberal Democrats will not rest until we have stopped Brexit.”

“I don't think the British people really knew the ramifications of what would happen after Brexit or not.”
