UK is moving over sovereignty from Brussels to Peking:
U.S. SENATOR TOM COTTON, ARKANSAS REPUBLICAN.
“This decision is deeply disappointing for American supporters of the Special Relationship. I fear London has freed itself from Brussels only to cede sovereignty to Beijing. Allowing Huawei to the build the UK’s 5G networks today is like allowing the KGB to build its telephone network during the Cold War.

Boris Johnson did not think the nation would vote leave in the EU referendum: he was just posturing with the ERG just to unsettle David Cameron's position as leader of the Tory party. He, Michael Gove and the rest of the Vote Leave mob were visibly staggered when the result was announced. They had no Brexit plan. They just continued to pander to the English nationalist group that is the ERG, and we have arrived where we are in a complete Heath Robinson state. God help us.
Question is, will he bend over for the US, the EU or India. He's not going to be able to please them all and keep 'the people' happy

Back on topic. That £47 million if it was wasted was because of this...
In September, backbenchers took steps again to legislate on a third Article 50 extension. The EU Withdrawal (No.2) Act – the so-called Benn Act – states that if MPs haven’t approved a deal agreed with the EU, or leaving without a deal, by 19 October, the prime minister must send a letter to the EU seeking an extension until 31 January 2020.
On 19 October, MPs passed the Letwin amendment which made clear that MPs would withhold their approval of the Withdrawal Agreement until the Withdrawal Agreement Bill had been passed. As a result, the prime minister wrote to Donald Tusk requesting an extension until 31 January 2020. The EU accepted the UK’s request on 28 October.
Still, let's look on the bright side, soon be Friday!
#NoDeal is looking good too!

Don't forget the £11million spent to produce Brexit coins that had to be scrapped cause the date was wrong

Would you rather we weren't prepared before what was then - before Parliament bolloxed it up - the October deadline?
No pleasing some people.
Also I thought you'd be more interested in the £130k plus that wee kranky pissed up the wall in one of her vanity projects.

£46 damn million
Watchdog queries impact of £46m 'Get Ready for Brexit' campaign
Watchdog queries impact of GBP46m 'Get Ready for Brexit' campaign - BBC News
A multi-million pound publicity blitz to prepare the public for leaving the EU appears to have had little impact, a spending watchdog has said.The National Audit Office said £46m was spent on the "Get ready for Brexit" campaign ahead of the UK's expected departure at the end of last October.
But the campaign was halted three days before the UK was supposed to leave after the EU granted another extension.
The NAO said it was "not clear" it left people "significantly better prepared".
But the Cabinet Office, which is in charge of Brexit preparations, said to have not done anything in the run-up to the 31 October deadline would have risked "significant and unnecessary disruption".
The department estimated the campaign reached had 99.8% of the population, with every member of the public having the opportunity to see the range of billboard, print, TV and online adverts 55 times.
