How many extensions do you people want? Had we left when we should have done, we'd have been on the other side of it by now, and the dust would have begun settling. Any extension is just another extension of the fear and dread that some of you are experiencing. It's like keep putting off a dentist appointment.
When May invoked A50, she followed the letter of the law and wrote that negotiations should be twofold - arranging our withdrawal from the EU and also taking into account the framework for future relations between the UK and the EU. These negotiations should have run alongside each other. However, the EU refused to discuss the future framework until after the withdrawal negotiations were over, they considered it 'too risky'. Some people, including Peter Marshall, former deputy general of the Commonwealth, believe the EU has acted illegally by doing this.
The backstop would never of arisen had the future framework been discussed alongside withdrawal negotiations. Even the head of the German Institute of Economic Research has said that no sovereign nation could accept the tyranny of the backstop. The EU has been trying to bully the UK, just as it has done previously with Holland, Ireland, Denmark, Greece, France and Italy, when they attempted to defy the EU's orders. And they were succeeding with meek coward May as PM, but Boris is different, and he's doing the right thing by threatening a No Deal if the EU refuse to back down.
Now that would have been an impressive post had it been your own work and not filched off William Shawcross of the Times. What a phoney you are.
