johnny9fingersHas Boris moved too early?

This may just possibly give the opposition the motivation to get behind Ken Clarke or Harriet Harman as leader and stop the whole thing from being a total disaster.
Tempo is everything in politics. This is a surprising move given he has now telegraphed his intent and limited the time in which any opposition has to happen; this has to concentrate the opposition to a Hard Brexit. I guess Boris and Dominic are pretty assured of the general complacency and pig-headedness in the Labour Party coming to the assistance of the Hard Brexiter group. In this I think their analysis to be correct. But I live in hope that I’m wrong.
I didn’t know that some in the British Establishment hated the Good Friday Agreement that much; because it appears that the ERG and Tory party have repudiated it completely; either that or they were just too fucking stupid to realise what they were tinkering with, having always overlooked every fucking Irish question that has ever been raised.
Well, I’m getting an Irish passport. Brexit has done this. I will always acknowledge HM as my personal liege, but her government is something I find intolerable atm.
