Some Brexits are more equal than others

As we move towards whatever form Brexit will take, the Government is still trying its hardest to keep things secret, not just from us, the electorate, but from Westminster too.

Not only challenging whether the question of can the A50 notification be unilaterally revoked by UK or not, which has seen the Government hire 5 QCs to challenge this, all in order so that Parliament is left with a Hobson's choice when it comes to the meaningful vote.

And now is refusing to Parliament's demand that it release the legal advice it was given regarding the no deal by the Attorney General. The Government is whipping its MPs to ensure that Parliament is further kept in the dark.

And this is democracy?

And remember, Brexit was about returning supremity to Westminster, apparently.

It is sickening.

But then, Westminster has gotten itself into this mess by voting to allow the Government to send the A50 notification when it clearly wasn't prepared. And at every point when it could have asserted its authority, it capitulated. The Lords did a far better job than the Commons.

Make no mistake, that when the question is asked was who to blame, it will be each and every MP that voted to allow the Government to send the A50 notice, and allowed themselves to be bullied into either abstaining or towing the party line.

This will not end well for anyone.

But for MPs there is always the chance of ending up in the Lords or course. For career politicians, there is never an end to their career. Just better expenses.

And as I finished this, news comes that a text of a WA has been reached with wording on how a hard border on Ireland could be avoided. That might be seen as the easy part, as it now has to get through Parliament. As the EU published the first part of its no deal planning, one of the features was that there would be no visa requirements for short-term visitors, but only if UK does the same for EU citizens.
