There was never a majority for a hard brexit in the first place. Brexit means brexit was the biggest cop out ever, every political journalist employed at the time, should hold their heads in shame, for not ripping it to shreds and exposing the whole charade for the con that it was.
I hold Labour equally accountable.
Johnson personally assured everyone we would remain in the customs union, people will still be able to work, study and live in the EU he said.
At the outcome of the referendum, any sensible political leader would have gone, hmmm, need to take the country with me here. I’ve got to respect that it was a narrow decision and compromise, otherwise this is going to get ugly.
What we got instead was an UKIP/ERG coup, which suited Johnson’s ambitions for power. Johnson’s political Svengali, to whom he delegated all his thinking, said this about Johnson’s understanding of what he was implementing.
Mr Cummings said: “What I’ve said does NOT mean ‘the PM was lying in General Election 2019’, he never had a scoobydoo what the deal he signed meant.
Brexit was Johnson’s key to power, it was never intended to make Pete’s life or anyone else’s any better. The fact that his disciples still worship him is no different to Trump’s MAGA mugs.
I accept that we’ll never change
@peteblue view of Johnson.
@peteblue is however in a fast diminishing minority and will soon join Japanese defenders of pacific islands, still fighting WW2 in the 50’s, Uri Geller spoon benderist believers and flat earthers, in the realm of the ridiculed and rejected.
Prime Minister Boris Johnson never fully understood what the Withdrawal Agreement with the EU really meant, his former chief adviser has said.
