"The Ides of March are come" (well October), and I was really hoping BoJo would pull a rabbit out of a hat at the last moment and veto the extension, as he would be perfectly entitled to under EU law whatever the Remainer quislings in Parliament have voted.Originally posted by DimPrawn View PostNot long now, Tory landslide win, out of the EU good and proper early next year. The only thing dead in a ditch is the EU economy...
But the sad fact is he obviously doesn't care tuppence whether we leave (and if so how) or stay, only about Bojo and the Tory Party. All this "die in a ditch" talk was a load of bloviating bollox!
I think he is potty urging an election now, before the UK has left the EU, and he is making the same mistake as Teresa May in her election, by overestimating Tory support.
Any Brexiter voting Tory instead of the Brexit Party will be rewarding the Tories' abject failure yet again, and (if the Tories win) giving them carte blanche to kick the can down the road for God knows how many more years, which they will be more than happy to do!
Vote Brexit Party!

Mind you, on the positive side, I've always maintained this whole Brexit saga so far has been quite like a secular rerun of the Reformation - When the Act of Supremacy, and similar laws, were first passed in the 1530s, there was widespread dismay and many protests and marches, such as the Pilgrimage of Grace, by die-hard catholics ("Remainers").
But over the next few years support for catholicism declined markedly and steadily, and apart from a hiccup, when Catholic "Bloody Mary" reigned for a few years, protestantism became so entrenched that restoring catholicism officially in the UK was unthinkable (although catholics were tolerated up to a point).Work in the public sector?
