Just another promise that Boris won't keep.
So you get rid of Boris, so what?


Who is going to put Humpty Dumpty back together again?
I liked Rory Stewart but he's left the Commons to campaign for the London Mayor job.
There are other moderates in the Conservative party.
Ken Clark could be a caretaker leader until the general election. I always liked Clark.
The Moderates aren't going to do any better. The DUP will keep refusing, Labour will keep undermining.

The UK is paralyzed, it's going to be a crash landing, no matter who is at the controls.

For legal reasons, we are not threatening to destroy U.S. government property with our glorious medieval siege engine. But if we wanted to, we could. But we won’t. But we could.

Ere, the Catalans are rioting in Spain, wot?

Look like a pretty nasty dust up, which it usually is in Spain.

Wonder when the Catalans will form an ETA of their very own, eh?

Waimminit. ‘Move the border to the Irish sea’ meaning Ireland is reunited? That’s a strong incentive....
SJWs are a natural consequence of corporatism.

More like Ulster gets to have its cake and eat it too, to get them to vote for the deal.

Ulster in effect gets to stay in the EU and the UK at the same time.

The Scots are freaking out about it, because that's the deal they want too, but that's not in the deal.

The United Kingdom is becoming Canadianized, with Scotland as British Quebec.

I hate to say I told you so...

Boris is sending a letter to Donald Tusk to ask for an extension tonight (11pm deadline).

That's the deal they both currently have. Neither Scotland nor NI voted to leave the EU.
