Just precisely why it is so important to Johnson that UK leaves the EU at Hallowe'en 'with or without a trade deal' is not yet altogether clear, but I'd be willing to bet that there is an enormous amount of money at stake for him and his cronies.
My guess is that he has cooked up some trade deal with his best buddy DT, the 'madman across the water', which cannot come into effect till UK is out of the EU.
Interesting too that the tory popular press - the 'Daily Heil', the 'Daily Excess' and the 'Torygraph' (I don't count the 'Sun' as a newspaper) have spent the last few days trying to convince their readership that Parliament is the enemy of 'the people' . Johnson has already said that 'people against Parliament' will form the basis of his campaign in the forthcoming election.
'British Constitution for Beginners', Part 1, Chapter 1, Page 1, Line 1
(Britain does have a constitution, by the way. It's just not written down)
Parliament is supreme.
Parliament has been supreme since the end of the Civil War (Worcester, September 1651)
Not the monarch, not the government, not the Prime Minister and most certainly not something called the 'will of the people'.
Parliament.
Theresa May thought she was above Parliament - she would trigger Article 50 and start the process of taking Britain out of the EU when she decided to, without consulting Parliament.
She was given a lesson in British Constitution by those 'enemies of the people' - the High Court Law Lords.
Now the muppet Johnson seeks to set himself above Parliament.
There can only be one possible outcome - in the end he will lose.
Let's just hope and pray that by the time that happens not too much damage has occurred.
A prediction - should UK leave the EU at 11,00 pm on the 31st October, - and, even now, I'm still quite optimistic that common sense will prevail - then the following day the word Breentry will enter the language.
