    Gosh, what Cummings said about Davis looks so obvious here: "Thick as mince, lazy as a toad and vain as Narcissus!"

    The ideal chief exit negotiator?

    As for the other two, one mask-wearing traitor and the other a man with no "edit" facility; whatever enters his head, out it comes.  The ideal job for a Foreign Secretary?

  • I think he, himself, agreed with that description; well,at least partly!

    Delusions of adequacy

    In London. Keen but lazy.

    And here he is, fully...prepared to meet the EU negotiators.  Unless, of course, he though he had been sent on a outing!

    “It was miraculous. It was almost no trick at all, he saw, to turn vice into virtue and slander into truth, impotence into abstinence, arrogance into humility, plunder into philanthropy, thievery into honor, blasphemy into wisdom, brutality into patriotism, and sadism into justice. Anybody could do it; it required no brains at all. It merely required no character.”

    Don't they know that you need a harness for a gurning competition?

     Unfortunately, his delusions are costly to the rest of us.  Especially to the young.

     How, sadly, true!

    I so agree, Artemis, both with you and Professor Grayling: it's disastrous for us and our children.

    The "FREEDOM" that the rich Brexit architects bang on about means our LOSS.

                                   

     

                                      We LOSE our NHS.

                                     We LOSE our workers’ and human rights.

                                     We LOSE our 28-country passport.

                                     We LOSE our freedoms.

     

                                     But they WIN the:

                                     FREEDOM to fire us

                                     FREEDOM to not pay maternity or sick leave

                                     FREEDOM to tank standards and

                                    FREEDOM to avoid paying billions in taxes.

                                                         They WIN.

                                                          We LOSE.

     Yes, of every single Brexiter on the planet.
