Brexit is the biggest con trick ever played on the British public and all as part of Spaffer's pursuit of power.


Well it began as David Cameron’s attempt to consolidate his power; that went disastrously wrong for him and for us. I don’t really see it ending well for Bozo either. That wave of good fortune he’s been riding all his life wil break soon I suspect.

For me Johnson is an ignorant, arrogant, shallow ****hole. It is the arrogance that will finish him.

Good to see Royston Smith getting some bad press, in the Mirror.
He visited the Kingsland Foodbank, for a photo opportunity, and then claimed his £1 parking fee back on expenses.
I get that it is in the rules, for them to do this, but he was making a journey to a charitable concern that wouldn’t even exist if it hadn’t been for the years of Tory austerity.
He also receives £24k a year, for 10 hours a month “consultancy services” to a property firm, Barker-Mill Estates. IMO it really is time for MPs to be banned from having secondary jobs. Let’s face it, they are nothing more than bribes for favours given, past, present or future.
 
Over confidence will be the Spaffer's undoing in the end.
I feel Northern Ireland will ultimately be his undoing. The ERG will encourage Johnson to over-ride the Protocol because these guys support the NI Unionists, resulting in a return of a "hard" border. Who will "man" this border I do not know, but we can work out who will be involved. This will see the demise of the GFA and the consequences of that are too horrific to contemplate.

Worst of all was his versión of it. Common sense would have suggested negotiating remaining inside the Customs Unión and Single Market. That would have satisfied those who voted Brexit because they wanted to end the polítical link.

Unfortunately, I don't think anything would have satisfied those who voted for Brexit, because voting leave was an emotive rather than a rational act.
