johnny9fingersAfter Boris’s conference speech I’d say if he can hold on until an election, he will walk it even if he hasn’t delivered Brexit.
The only hope is a no-confidence vote. But Dominic Grieve and Sir Nicholas Soames and their like, and Chuka Umanna and the Labour rebels won’t accept Jezza as interim leader.
Given the polls, interim Prime Minister is the best Corbyn will ever manage, and that’s not going to happen.
Boris really is the perfect snake-oil salesman. I acknowledge his brilliance at playing an audience - he always was the best comedian and raconteur, and an enthusiastic and inspirational speaker to his base; but I spent half the time shouting at the telly at his manifest inaccuracies, if that’s the euphemism I’m looking for.
So, I guess the buying public, having been sold impossibilities (there were a more than a few mutually exclusive ideas being embraced) need to know that the golden-egg-laying-goose doesn’t exist, by waiting for all the good things to happen... and waiting... and waiting until realisation eventually dawns.
I think, for the sake of the nation, and the need to get the stupid to recognise what they’ve done, we need a hard Brexit; and probably as punitive one as the EU can manage. And then I hope the Brexiters will take responsibility for trashing the Good Friday Agreement and restarting the Troubles.
Oh well.
