One gross of Brexit.

From today, there are just 144 days left of the A50 process.

One gross.

So you know.

Time is ticking.

Loudly.

Ireland moved a little on the backstop solution for the Irish border, but won't be enough for May, who seems to have employed another idiot as Brexit Minister, as Raab has been heard demanding the EU should allow the backstop to be time limited to just three months.

Things about the backstop is that it is a safety net, the last chance, so it comes into effect, and lasts until a better solution is found. So it is up to UK to find the solution, as May, DD et al in her Cabinet have already agreed to the backstop. Twice, and the EU just want them to honour their word.

That May, DD, Raab and so on keep trying to backtrack means that the last smears of good will that the EU might have had for May have been used up, and now as time runs out, there is just facts and solutions, and ones that are binding. Tight, just in case a Brexiteer is made PM in the not so distant future and tries to break the WA.

Mark my words, in the next few days, weeks, the Brexiteers will see that the choice is between two unions, and the union between Britain and NI will be seen as dispensable, and they will try to sacrifice NI on the bonfire of Brexit
