The new Brexit reality

Yesterday, a marathon session at Chequers, after 105 and a half weeks since the referendum, the UK Cabinet finally agreed what Brexit was. Ane meant.

It means the softest option, close alignment with the EU and no agri-trade deals with anyone, least of all, the USA.

All Ministers agreed, on the threat that if they did not their career would be at an end from that point, and they could walk to the station. And if they broke the newly reinstated idea of Cabinet responsibility, they would be fired. And that means you too, Boris.

This is a simple case of what happened when reality met Brexit with its sunlit uplands, cakeism and unicorns, and clearly, reality would win out.

This does not mean its over, May cannot get this deal through Parliament, JRM has already says he will vote against it, and yet he claims the PM is the saboteur in this.

However, problems remain:

1. It will make the country poorer
2. It will make the UK a rule taker not a rule maker, no taking back control
3. and the EU will probably reject it,

Or in the case of (3), it will be seen as a starting position and see what else the UK will move on.

So, in summary: BINO. Brexit in name only.

As predicted.

And then the headbangers might try to bring down May and her Government, and then the fun will really begin.
