Very easy to understand, the choice was Boris or Teresa ............. so no choice at all really.

Same as the USA whose choice was Trump or Hillary ....... another no choice decision.

You mean Donald "One Term" Trump?

Leaving the EU has cost the UK a loss of 4% of its GDP. Covid has cost an additional 1.5% loss.

Several sectors of the UK are underperforming due to a lack of workers 

It's inevitable be we  will join the EU again.

Well OK .

The Remain M.P.s refused to vote for anything that would make Brexit happen.

They voted no to all propositions and so the U,.K couldn't leave the E.U because they voted No on everything .

  So, the reason why the U.K couldn't leave the E.U was because of the Remainer UK politicians .

  So , whose fault was it that the UK couldnt leave the E.U ?

Right. Then there was a general election and a deal brokered by the current UK administration was agreed. Whose fault is it that the same UK administration is unable and/or unwilling to implement that agreement? Actually, that's a rhetorical question. I know the answer: Anyone but us.

 

I wonder if Balatelli has any of those 'Why always me?' T-shirts left? He could send a few to the UK cabinet.

We were talking about the Politicians taking four years to get Brexit done.

Are you  now  changing the subject to post Brexit , a different subject ? 

Have you stopped talking about getting Brexit done and are now talking about Ireland ?

Tick tock tick tock

 

As ye sow, so shall ye reap. 
 

“Some of the 148 MPs who voted to oust the prime minister on Monday said they would try to stymie his government’s legislative agenda, as happened at the end of the Theresa May era, by abstaining on key laws.”

It's not me who is being evasive.

 

You blame Remainers in parliament for the failure to reach a deal during the four years of negotiations but conveniently omit the fact that the ERG MPs, and Boris Johnson himself, voted against Theresa May's proposals.

 

I mentioned the NI issue at the beginning of this dialogue and you chose to ignore it. I'll repeat it here in case you now want to address it. Johnson's government brokered a deal which ignored a warning from the DUP that they would not support this deal. The current problems in NI are a direct result of Johnson not heeding this warning. It is not the EU's - or Remainers in parliament or elsewhere - fault that the UK cannot comply with agreed Protocol, it is the UK's government.

 

Whatever way you want to look at it, the whole Brexit process has been a disaster and an embarrassment from the UK's perspective from beginning to where we are now.

Right, the U.K Politicians spent four years in Brussels trying to forge an agreement about Brexit .

   The Remainer Politicians in Westminster rejected all the offers in the hope that Brexit would be cancelled . No to everything 

   T.May then offered a water down version of Brexit , BRINO , Brexit in name only , half leaving and half staying in .

  Borisj then rejected that offer because that wasn't what the people voted for , they voted for Brexit , not BRINO . 

   The only way to get Brexit done was to get rid of all the treacherous Politicians who wanted to Remain. at the next election

In a previous post you stated that people who voted Brexit did so for different reasons, and had different ideas about what Brexit might look like. In your penultimate paragraph, you now seem to infer that there is one 'pure' form of Brexit. Which is it?

 

Apart from the adjective 'treacherous', the statement in your final paragraph is a concise summary of events.

 

The next (major) event in this sequence was that Agreement with the EU was brokered and signed by Johnson's government. This is also a statement of fact.

 

Therefore - repeating myself for the umpteenth time - you must surely agree that the current UK administration should take responsibility and be accountable for its' own actions (and the current chaos has nothing to do with Remainers?

Of course not. It's ALWAYS somebody else's fault.

Exactly. One of the very few valid argument for Brexit was about "political accountability". It turns out it's only accountability for others, as before Brexit.

So Boris is still outraging the leftists, blocking the Rejoiners, and upsetting the Euros. He must be still doing a grand job. 
All we need is for him to ditch the bits we don’t like of NI protocol, then send all the fake asylum seekers back to Calais. He would be back to. National Hero in an instant and win all elections for evermore.

More hotels paid for by us. Far too cushy for those fakirs. Back to the Calais jungle with the traffickers. would be better. It would also upset the French more, so a win -win.

I'm just curious. How would you practically send them back to Calais, taking into account that there is no legal way to force the French to accept them?

In small boats, like the French allowed them to come here. 
If that was not a legal way would the French be even more upset? This plan gets better all the time.

When they left France, they wanted to leave.. How would you force them to leave UK? The UK police would chain them in rows and then lead them to the French coast?

So a trade deal with the US is imminent then? Relations with the EU will be repaired? The UK will forge ahead and the Brexit Bonuses will click into gear.

 

Any idea when this is likely to happen? I want to make sure that I don't miss it.

He got Brexit done, negotiated the country's way through Covid and has just won a no confidence vote meaning he is immune to a leadership challenge for 12 more months. Best of all, the cherry on the icing on the cake is that the main opposition is the Labour Party, consisting of the likes of Dianne Abbot, David Lammy, Angela Rayner and led by Keir Starmer ????. So no matter how bad he looks (and he has looked pretty bad at times), the clowns opposite him always make him look mildly competent by comparison.

 

Hardly Zero. Sitting pretty would be a more accurate description. 

Except history shows that Thatcher had same 41% against but was soon persuaded to quit. Johnson might be fatally holed except there is no one else and would let in the clowns of Labour etc.

But that was a different situation though .

There was mass street protests against Thatcher and the unpopular Poll tax and her advisers thought it would be better if She resigned , otherwise Tories would have received an trouncing at the next general election .

   Will the voters desert the Tories because Boris had a Christmas drink in the same way as the reaction to the Poll tax ?

  As they will not, there is no reason for Boris to resign

They are all still too angry at losing the referendum they thought was stitched up; too angry at not being capable of being an elected government; and too angry that the left’s nemesis Boris is still here; that they rage at anyone to the right of Lenin. 
They’re far too busy being outraged that they haven’t noticed it’s their Froggy naval friends who shepherd the dinghies out into the channel. That’s who lets them drown.

The US will have to get in the queue with the rest of the world, who are still in front. The countries Remainers said would never deal with a free UK. [Biden] missed his chance early on. 
No need to repair anything with the EU. That bloc will have disintegrated before long.
