The Beatles looking 55 years into the future. :lol:

He's a real nowhere man
Sitting in his nowhere land
Making all his nowhere plans for nobody
Doesn't have a point of view
Knows not where he's going to
Isn't he a bit like Boris Johnson?

Nowhere man please listen
You don't know what Brexit is missing
Nowhere man, the EU is not at your command
He's as blind as he can be
Just sees what he wants to see
Nowhere man, can you see what is real
Nowhere man don't worry

Take your time, don't hurry
Leave it all 'til somebody else
Lends you a hand
Ah, la, la, la, la

Doesn't have a point of view
Knows not where he's going to
Isn't he a bit like Boris Johnson?

Nowhere man please listen

Making all his nowhere plans for nobody

As expected, we now have a 'thin' tariff-free trade deal. Obviously better than WTO, but expect increased shipping costs (customs handling fees) and increased shipping times due to that additional paperwork.

Have to confess that as time went on I was becoming more convinced that the Boron would let us crash out of Europe. I rather wonder if the recent shenanigans at Dover weren't Macron's way of saying to the idiot Sort Your Merde Ridden Life out!

Anyway we must all hunker down now as Boron declares victory, bells ring, spitfires are exhumed etc etc.

Huzzah! Let us kneel and pay homage to the immensely clever, and the wily beast that is our Prime Minister. At least, that's what he's probably hearing in his mind.

In reality, we're all being lined up as conscripts in the new industry to be formed by the government to fulfil the one piece of the deal that's not been released to the public yet. Everyone will be required to spend a one-year spell painting the Union Jacks on all of our fish.

Damage limitation and we await the detail. Sure it will not wash with Farage, Rees Mong and like vermin. Will be interesting to see what the gutter Brexshite tabloids have to say.

Nothing short of wiping Europe off the face of the earth would wash with Farage and JRM.

In the run up to the referendum, Farage said he would be happy fr us to be like Norway, and, when seeking a referendum, JRM said he thought that a 2nd, confirmatory, referendum would be sensible. The masks slipped very quickly, though.

Still, silver linings, eh? Now that £350M per week can start flooding into the NHS.

Didn't you just love the seque at the end of his bit and before question time. "Now that's enough about Brussels, onto the sprouts." Straight out of Spitting Image.

Then there was the £600 billion trade deal (at 2019 rates, not this year, not next) and then twenty minutes blathering about fishing which is less than 1% of that. Rather less forthcoming when asked about services.
