Imagine being too scared to say that better trading/travel/science/education/opportunities with our own continent would be a good thing.

One thing I've observed of Boris Johnson over the years is that whenever he's in trouble, he starts jogging. Although judging from this 2021 footage, you've got to ask how far he runs.

This - from Max Hastings in @thetimes - is absolutely the first, last and only word on that reprobate of a prime minister, Boris Johnson 👇

If you were given an honour by a man who that very day resigned from parliament in disgrace after a report by his fellow MPs would you keep it?

Yes, Brexit has failed.
It has failed on every measure where it claimed it would succeed.
