Conmen go to jail for crimes smaller than the Brextremists’ ruinous, gigantic deceit.

Scammers such as a Manchester hustler who tricked a couple of holidaymakers out of £40 was sent to prison.

Yet notorious liar Boris Johnson and his bandits remain free, despite a heist threatening to cost the nation a fortune.

The Great British lie-ability would be behind bars if he ran a company not a country.

Politics shamefully ­tolerates enormous porkies, which are the twister’s get out of jail free card.

You know the Leavers’ coup is spiralling out of control when their contingency plan for food and medical shortages is to send in the Army.

This is a truth as grim as the phantom £350million a week for the NHS.

So what an injustice that deluded Johnson and his band of desperadoes, charlatans, cheats, hoaxers and fraudsters blame everybody except their deceiving selves for the chaos. And no wonder rattled Brextremists’ U-turn on demands to publish no-deal proposals.

The penny is finally dropping that every option, should Britain crash out of Europe, is an expensively terrifying nightmare.

MPs bolting the fake news door after the referendum scramble to avert future fibbing on an industrial scale but we’ve still to deal with the cataclysmic facts behind Johnson & Co’s fiction.

Pollster YouGov discovering for the first time since the narrow Brexit result two years ago that a majority now want to vote on the real choice is a pivotal moment.

Brexit’s no longer inevitable when there’s no consensus among Quitters on what it means, beyond a pantomime slogan, while the conned aren’t prepared to pay with their futures to let Johnson take control.

City slicker Nigel “skint” Farage is doing well by walking away from the shambles he helped create, raking in as much as £700,000 on top of his MEP’s £80,000 with a promised Brussels £73,000 pension and £117,000 golden goodbye.

Multi-millionaire Jacob Rees-Mogg’s willingness to wait 50 years to see if his Empire fixation ends with Britannia ruling the waves isn't shared by folk with a sinking feeling and bills to pay year and next year.

The conned turning against the conmen is British politics shifting for the better.
