Former deputy prime minister Michael Heseltine says the UK should reverse Brexit and argues that the public was misled about the EU departure. In comments reported by both outlets, Heseltine characterises Brexit as a “heinous crime” and directs criticism at Boris Johnson and Nigel Farage, portraying them as key figures in what he says was misinformation presented to voters. The Independent describes the remarks as a stinging attack on Brexiteers, asserting that voters were “lied” to as part of the decision to leave the EU. Yahoo UK News similarly frames the intervention around Heseltine’s call to undo Brexit and his condemnation of Johnson and Farage’s roles in the campaign and its aftermath. While the articles focus on Heseltine’s language and political critique, they do not present new policy proposals or specific legislative steps in the reporting provided. Both sources agree on the core message: Heseltine argues that Brexit should be reversed and that the referendum and its promise were conducted under misleading claims, in which Johnson and Farage feature prominently.
