Farage will be all over that.

His interview with Iain Dale today was priceless - to quote the LBC account of it:

Iain Dale asked: "Did I not hear you asking for an extension in the last few days?"

Farage replied: "No, I want to leave on the 31st of October with a clean break Brexit Of course I do. But given that that is not going to happen, if you give me the choice between Mrs. May's Treaty, which was rejected three times..."

Iain Dale said that it was Boris Johnson's treaty, to which Farage replied that only 5 per cent of it had changed.

Iain Dale called that "complete rubbish". He then said: "You've got rid of the backstop, you've got less regulatory alignment. Don't pretend it's 95 per cent. It may be 75. But it's not 95."

Farage replied: "If you want to argue about regulatory realignment, I suggest you read Clause 77 of the political declaration, which sets out the terms for any future trade agreement.

"They've even included taxation this time. The regulatory alignment aspects of this, I think they're even more dangerous than we saw before. We've replaced the Customs Union for the entire United Kingdom, that was a victory at the price of putting a border in between Great Britain and Northern Ireland.

"It is 95 per cent the same as what Theresa May put to us.

It’s gonna be much worse for Johnson when they do

Fine. If it’s really a crap deal then we can leave with no deal. Meanwhile the timescale for the transition and negotiation for a trade deal diminishes every day...while our parliamentarians play games.....
