Delayed for the fourth time

It was reported last night that the enhanced checks on EU goods coming into the UK on JUly 1st is to be delayed a 4th time.

I mean, to do it once is bad enough, but a second is just careless, and a 4th underlines something more serious.

It was the UK that voted to leave the EU, not the EU kicked us out, and so should have realised the preparations needed once the definition was to leave the SM and CU.

That May and then Johnson lived in denial, and as each baby step of Brexit made things worse, we see the final steps just being kicked down the road again and again.

I saw a Tweet from one of Nigel's former "advisros" that Brexit needs 60 years for assessment before there is another vote, or at least the 45 between joining and leaving. But that ignores the referendum that took place a meer 3 years after joining, and that confirmed the decision to join. So, with his logic, maybe we should have a confirmation vote next year, based on the promises made and realities delivered.

But I guess they don't want that, because we need to move on.

But while the Government tries to renegotiate what has already been agreed, as they can't move on and accept what they won, why should those who warned of the mess they would create?

Meanwhile the economy goes down the toilet, and we should celebrate as "only" 7,000 jobs have been lost in The City.

So much winning.
