59% of Kent will be getting what they 'knew they were voting for.' Apparently. So many pop up Nightingale services will be in Kent and around other port hinterland in Brexit Britain. The absolute irony would be importing 1000's of portapotties from France to cater for the truckers toilet needs. Kent, the garden of England where the air was once filled with the smell of harvested hops, will now be filled with the sweet aroma of formaldehyde and freshly laid tarmac.

As for that councillor who claims it isn't a chance for remainers to have a go - pathetic. Those who enabled this needless farce should answer the for their actions and face the consequences. I've no idea who the councillor is who said that. The head of the Labour Leave group was a councillor. For an alleged Labour councillor he holds some strange views. He recently re-tweeted the Daily Express and the snivelling sock puppet Darren Grimes. The councillors name is Brendan Chilton. Guess which Kent town he lives in and represents.....

Johnson on course to fail his Statecraft exam.

But, for whatever reason, it’s clear from the summit that after 45 years of membership, they are not willing, unless there’s some fundamental change of approach, to offer this country, the same terms as Canada.

This is textbook. 45 years of membership (until we decided to go it alone).

The EU and Barnier can say they're available to talk until the last possible moment but Boris doesn't have that luxury because he has to make a call in order to give business a bit of time to prepare for No Deal.

I think his announcement today IS, in reality, the death of a Deal.

My thoughts and prayers go out to all of the hauliers and haulage firms who now have to negotiate this logistical nightmare.

Let the stockpiling commence!

Rather unfortunate turn of phrase.

Also, don't they usually release the thumb on the detonator, rather than pull a pin?


But the one that Johnson is wearing is like a grenade; pull out the pin and he has 5 seconds to get rid of it.

Vest thrown into the mass of people least equipped to deal with the fallout; the PPFs of the world. And off he runs no harm to himself.

Boom... The PPFs caught full blast...

Where's your back up gone, baz? Matey has calmed his tits after his meltdown a few weeks back; and your right hand man has been given the hook, you know, the one obsessed with onanism.

An opportune moment?

Check your philosophy, change it, GO!

So, Road Hauliers. You need 33,000 licenses per annum to drive out of the U.K. but the government will only grant you 5000.

I think it’s time to “Rethink. Reskill. Reboot! “

Or

“Don’t think about the obstacles, think about the opportunities”

What’s it to be in this new golden era?

I can't see why anyone would be surprised by the latest turn of events. Brexit, on the terms of VoteLeave, Gove, Johnson et al , was always going to be undeliverable. Why would the EU grant favourable status on a country that will become a trading rival right on its doorstep, one that does not want to contribute financially to the EU and can't agree to any of its rules and standards yet demand tariff free trade ?

We are going to have to rely on the goodwill of the EU not to fully enforce border controls or standards on Jan 1 or we are well in the shat.
