Brexit and the waning days of the United Kingdom

[Syt]

To add insult to injury, apparently Boris resigned right before a summit in London between the EU and the Western Balkans countries in which he was supposed to host and no-showed. The delegations were still waiting for him when the announcement was made.

Charming.

It's simply the nth example of this government not caring at all for their supposed jobs and only seeing them as an excuse for jockeying for power and internal dealing in the cabinet.

Give Corbyn's labour party a turn at government, I cannot see how they'd do worse on Brexit.

The trouble is that I'm not at all sure they won't make an even bigger hash of it.

[The Minsky Moment]

Besides they will find plenty of other things to screw up.

So what's the play here? Are these guys resigning in the hope to dislodge May, so they can push again for a hard Brexit?

[The Brain]

What twattery.

[The Minsky Moment]

As the guys have been pointing it out here, the entire reason for Brexit ever happening is the Tory division over Europe.

At least they solved that problem

Someone forgot to tell Cameron that Europe is a continental land mass. Absent lots of tectonic activity and tens of millions of years, it ain't going anywhere.

Prime Minister Johnson set to meet President Trump Friday.

Hate Corbyn as much as you like but Keir Starmer really knows his stuff on Europe. Unlike any tory....

They know that Brexit will be a failure of historic proportions and want to be able to dissociate themselves from it. That way they can blame May and the EU for the political disaster they created.

That could be seen as a positive spin regarding them; maybe Putin has Kompromat on them too?

That seems too ... smart?

IDK about the others but I am fairly certain BoJo has no plans past becoming PM for the heck of it. He thinks the USP to get there is being pro-Brexit.
