How the hell is that going to work? The 5 mile each side of the border thing?

Tony Connolly on the News this evening saying Brussels is baffled by the tyoe of suggestions coming from London.
Presumably the Reesmogs and Buffoonjohnson and their followers are still squeezing Mayhem so all sorts of daft things are being thrown out there?

The writing has been on the wall for several months. Should have been an indicator that it was going to go tits up when Westminister hadn't even considered the sticky issue of the Irish border until forced to do so by Brussels.

Just after a shock General Election?

That's LaLa land I think.

Seems to me that anyone who even whispers about another referendum is quickly shot down by "The people have decided" and backs down.

Also seems to me that a lot of the general public accept the Tory rhetoric that it's Germany and France's fault they won't give the UK a good deal. And too many of the business leaders who know Brexit is bad for UK business and keeping the head down.

Maybe views will change after today, but I would bet against it.

Has anyone seen any recent opinion polls on it?

The business leaders are concentrating on making sure that it is a Norway type Brexit, which largely keeps trade flowing. Then you can honestly say that Britain is not the EU and I doubt if the loonies could get enough political headwind to move things away from the Norway type situation.
If at first you don't succeed, then goto Plan B

James O'Brien sums the situation up pretty well:

He's an arrogant sod, no doubt, but part of my daily entertainment now is listening to him exposing the stupidity of Little Englander Brexiteers and more often than not laying bare the fact that mostly they just want to keep foreigners out.

I quite enjoy the arrogance he shows to these twats who ring up the show but are completely totally misinformed. He puts them on the spot time and time again and they have no real answer for him.

He completely eviscerated Johnson this morning and with mention of a "Love child running around west London" I'm sure he has peaked the Foreign Secretary's interest!!

Insane Bolt

Barnier today said the backstop would apply just to the wee six and that Britain would not be included.

Difficult to find transparency but there does seem to be an agenda of a de facto economically unified island outside of a hard exited UK being pushed by the EU, without a push back from downing street.

Never underestimate the predictability of stupidity
