Reports had begun to appear in the media, based on briefings from anonymous sources, that Davis was working with the IEA to deliver a 140-page alternative to May’s plan. Yet it failed to materialise, reportedly after ERG members were unable to agree on some of its wilder ideas, which included a military expeditionary force to defend the Falkland Islands. Instead, on 11 September, a little-known organisation, Economists for Free Trade, launched its vision for Brexit, which involved walking away from an EU trade deal and reverting to WTO rules. The economist speaking on the panel at its launch event was Prof Patrick Minford, trustee of and veteran contributor to the IEA; he was introduced by the then ERG chairman, Jacob Rees-Mogg, who was also an adviser to Economists for Free Trade.
The next day, the ERG produced another paper, this time on how to solve the Irish border problem. The ERG held a launch event in London, and a blog founded after the referendum, Brexit Central, which was edited by the former policy director of the TaxPayers’ Alliance, published the paper online. Separately, a few days later, Hannan’s Initiative for Free Trade launched his “ideal US-UK free trade deal”, the collaboration between UK and US Atlas thinktanks. The following week, the IEA launched Plan A+, its own radical proposal for a Canada-style free trade deal, drawn up by Singham and his team. The ERG supported the launch and Johnson took to Twitter to declare it a “fine piece of work by @shankerasingham @iealondon”.
There was a puzzling circularity to all this activity generated by separate organisations, which, on closer inspection, turned out to be connected. The merits or otherwise of the proposals were almost beside the point. They captured the news agenda day after day, creating a tide of commentary and headlines. “Because broadcasters often fail to match Brexiters with trade experts, they get away with their nonsense,” Simon Wren-Lewis, professor of economics at Oxford University, has noted. “By the time the nonsense is revealed as such, and enough people know why it is nonsense, the discussion has moved on and new nonsense appears.”

[Thread] Fantastic article by professor Steve Hall on the liberal degeneration of the British left: https://t.co/3ie80IutV4

This is the finding that should compel the left to abandon its self-righteous dogma, its ineffective post-68 cultural turn and its divisive identity politics to rethink its position. However, the reaction to our research does not suggest that the current left has the humility, the wherewithal, the intellectual resources or the foresight to do so. Two years ago, one of us was invited to present our findings to the Norwegian Sociological Association, only to be accused of fabricating the data. 

By the 1980s the very idea of politically organised socioeconomic reordering became anathema on the liberalised left
