Brexit. It is blatantly obvious what Boris is doing; he will "renegotiate" the withdrawal agreement - removing the backstop and replacing it with a guarantee from both sides that there will be no border in Ireland no matter what, plus a couple of minor tweaks to the finances and laws. Then he'll try to get that through the Commons - which, hopefully, will only happen if there is a confirmatory referendum. Since Boris knows (rightly) that the entire Brexit thing is terribly unimportant (it's like "Should VAT be 19% or 21%?") he really doesn't care what happens - if the country throws Brexit out (as it will) he can shrug his shoulders, weep crocodile tears and say "oh well, the public have spoken".

7000 people read this in the first 35 minutes of publishing it - including, according to IP's, several top journalists. Perhaps now a National Newspaper will investigate the story.

And now Jo Swinson is stupidly going on about a No Deal; Vince Cable would be speaking about Brexit, not No Deal. When Boris triumphantly says "I've got a great deal" Swinson will nervously say "well it's better than No Deal but..."

I'm still reeling from the fact quite nasty right-wingers (in the media & politics) are viciously attacking 16 year old Greta Thunberg for daring to be a young person worried about her and other's futures but are more than happy that 16 year Conservative Party members voted for the goose Boris to be PM.

I think the UK (and the US) may be fucked for decades to come.

I'm wondering when the dark forces will arrange for Boris and Trump to get the convertible limo out and go for a cruise around Texas if they don't tow their masters line.

Some might even crowdfund it.
