      Boris is back on claiming £350m is for the NHS.

The next election will be fought as the UK moves into a "transitional deal", which will of course have "Hard Brexiteers" gnashing their teeth, but they won't have much choice, and the Tories will be held together by the prospect of the "Promised Land" appearing in 2025.

          Nah, as I've said before, you're fundamentally out of touch with UK politics. You don't think Peter Bone and his mates conspired on their lonesome to defenestrate all those Tory leaders, do you? No, of course not. As I've said before, it's the thin end of the wedge. When polled by Con Home and others, ~70% of Tory members routinely opt for a "hard" brexit, and the sooner the better. Why do you think May, Rudd and other Remainers, are so quick to ramp up the rhetoric on immigration, far beyond what most moderate leavers would consider? It's because they're worried. They know they're being watched. Not by Peter Bone, but by the grassroots. All those swivel-eyed ground troops in Conservative associations across the country that are central to getting the Tories elected There's one thing about the swivel-eyed brigade; they're very good at the long game. Tick tock.

              Linky?
              When you say "back on" are you implying that he claimed it in the past and duped many people with his claim, even though some deny it ever happened?

                Would that be the suggestion?

                I suggest that they give me the £375m but I doubt that will happen.

                  Well, Sterling parity with the EUR is out of the window for a while at least.

                    oh yes they'll get their "Hard Brexit", just not quite yet, as you say they're good at the long game, so they'll patiently wait for it after the "Transitional Deal"....which will go on and on and on...I think we're pretty much in agreement really.

                    I'm alright Jack

                      Who will we get a deal with? Will the EU still exist in 2017?
