Boris’ plan is to
1. Have a clear and simple plan
2. Get the polls in his favour
3. Blame the eu if they won’t budge on a deal
3. Blame anti-democratic MPs if he has to fight an election

It’s going to be the greatest and most divisive election campaign in modern times. I can’t wait.

It is still (undemocratically IMV) FPTP system though. Much tougher for dissenting voices to be heard and to be representative of people's views.

Oh for Proportional Represenation. The counts are so enjoyable. It's all over here in a minute or two. Sigh...

I'm on a roll (filibustering here). Better make some tea and take a break.

(for long enough to boil the kettle etc.).

We are living through history, as if that is any consolation, but still...

We are in interesting times....but I've never seen people in the UK so divided. Whatever happens whether we leave or remain, brexit has ruined this country for generations to come. The hate will just continue for years to come.

Ah yes, I’m sure leader of the opposition Jeremy corbyn and his friends in high places will be up for that.

‘Excuse me Jeremy, we’ve kicked out the tories and now we’d like to kick you out as well so your subordinate or some non-entity from nowhere can take over instead. It might be the death of any credibility you want to keep hold of but that’s no problem is it Jeremy?’

How utterly ridiculous.

It appears from tonight’s news that JC’s pet Rottweiler Rebecca long-bailey is in complete agreement with me on this one.

Business trips need to be made, because they need to get ahead of the storm.

Exactly. Business folk need to try harder win and gain EU business now and the trips will continue until things stop. These are almost all folk who'll be able to expense any increases in travel costs anyway.


I was wary about what'd happen in March, but I couldn't stop booking flights into Europe.

Yes, I so agree with you. It is not a good path at all.

The UK’s safety and security would suffer from a no-deal Brexit and no amount of planning and preparation can erase the risk, Britain’s head of counter-terrorism has said.

The Scotland Yard assistant commissioner, Neil Basu, said key crime-fighting tools would be lost and their replacements would not be as good.

.....but I'm sure our Home Secretary Priti Patel is working overtime to protect us!
