Brexit

[Oracle]

(Slightly surprised but) I agree with most of that. Corbyn is beneath contempt, May is a Saint and many in the Labour Party still regard Scargill as a hero of the working classes with a pick handle.

May's tragedy is that no-one else (who might have been better at it) came forward to lead the country out of the EU over their personal preference (Johnson is a self-serving, spineless, narcissistic, light- weight, hypocritical, preening prat). It is tough enough leading an organisation knowing the buck stops with you when you truly believe in what you are doing but after that shaky referendum result? How many sleepless nights does that produce?

Still: if you wish to be Joan of Arc you must be prepared to burn.

May has had the hardest job of any peace time PM. It is not her deal that failed, it is an EU deal that failed to address any of the concerns of the UK whilst demanding unnaceptable conditions.

I don't agree about Johnston. His position has remained remarkably consistent and is also following the manifesto on which the party gained power. Most of the MPs seem to think their personal opinions trump their mandate.

I would say Davies is the best leader the party will never have. He commands respect both sides of the house, and would not have bottled the confrontations over the negotiation sequence which in essence is the cause of the problem.

Barnier programmed the failure of talks, promising the 27 an outcome we would never accept. He is the one that should resign. He is still stating after no deal brexit we must pay 40 billion and accept the backstop even to enter trade talks.
