I understand that temptation, but we cannot succumb to it. First, this disaster will hit the poorest “first and worst”, as the anti-Brexit activist Naomi Smith puts it. There is no comfort to be had in that. Second, it’s a delusion to imagine that if Brexit goes wrong, those who voted for it will blame the Brexiters. They’ll be urged instead, by the government and much of the press, to blame anybody and everybody else: Europe, remainers, the traitors in their midst. In addition to the Agricultural Adjustment Act, the Tennessee Valley Authority Act and the National Industrial Recovery Act, Roosevelt had won passage of 12 other major laws, including the Glass-Steagall Act (an important banking bill) and the Home Owners’ Loan Act, in his first 100 days in office. Still, the Great Depression dragged on.

For decades, the Conservative party has been driven by a Europhobic awkward squad and leaders who indulged them.

Unemployment levels in some cities reached staggering levels during the Great Depression: By 1933, Toledo, Ohio's had reached 80 percent, and nearly 90 percent of Lowell, Massachusetts, was unemployed. This is the prospect that faces us this weekend. We are on the precipice, led by those who promised there was another way. And now they are about to pull us into the abyss.

The investigation into what caused them to race through an intersection, hit a low median and become airborne continued, with investigators looking at whether medical or mechanical issues may have contributed, Niagara Falls Police Chief John Faso told local media on Friday.In 1936, while campaigning for a second term, FDR told a roaring crowd at Madison Square Garden that “The forces of ‘organized money’ are unanimous in their hate for me—and I welcome their hatred.” June’s National Industrial Recovery Act guaranteed that workers would have the right to unionize and bargain collectively for higher wages and better working conditions; it also suspended some antitrust laws and established a federally funded Public Works Administration. A police spokesman said: "Kent Police was called to a report of a two-car collision on the A258 near St Margaret's at Cliffe, near Dover, at 11.30am."
