"The elephant in the room of our present economic difficulties is Brexit", Lord Heseltine said simply.: "We have severed our connection with our biggest market, and for all sorts of understandable political reasons, there's no political party prepared to face up to this."Until people wake up to that, we're just going to listen to more and more platitudes about what they're going to do and what change is coming and all that.
"The Tory peer added: "The fact of the matter is that our marketplace has been cut beneath our feet.""Yeah absolutely, and worse - we did it on the basis of a pack of lies!" he agreed.His comments came the day after the local elections, which have seen, he mentioned that voters are still "very angry" with the Tories, most recently because of Liz Truss' premiership, during which Kwasi Kwarteng produced the controversial mini-budget.
