Sunday Brexit

Another disgraced former defence minister, Gavin Williamson, had an interview published in the Sunday Hate Mail today, criticising the PM for talking to the Labour Party in order to break the Brexit impasse.

In a way, he has a point: Labour is entrenched, it wants an election first and foremost, and that it is possible Labour could go back on any agreed deal at any point.

But then, Parliament is deadlocked. The Conservatives are deadlocked. Labour is deadlocked.

The PM and her Government cannot get the negotiated through The Commons on her party's votes alone. Getting as far as they have has meant Labour rebels have voted with the Government and against their own party whips.

Any lasting solution to the WA and Brexit in general, has to be a cross-party one, least the EU will fear, quite rightly, that a future Government would try to unpick the WA. That some members of the ERG has said they themselves will actually attempt to do this shows how fragile any WA would be.

Even more bizarrely, the Brexit Party, lead by our old friend, Nigel, is currently leading the polls in the run up to the EU election, despite the "party" having no policies, members or visible source of income.

If a party with no policy can defeat all other parties, it shows how messed up UK politics is right now. And Nigel is friends with Trumps friends, and has the same source of money and data.

Still, I'm sure there's nothing to worry about.
