Boris insists the Rebel Alliance is undermining Britains negotiations with Europe because they don’t believe we will blow our head off if they don’t give in to our demands! Put aside the Blazing Saddles absurdity and look at who is preparing for a no deal Brexit – Europe. They think there is as much chance we leave without a deal by accident as by design.

The European negotiators claim there have been no proposals from the “can do” leader. If that is simply political posturing by them to undermine the Prime Minister he should expose them and tell the Country what proposals he has put. Do’t hold your breath.

Credibility is ebbing away from Mr Johnson. If Labour hold out on the election date the pressure will build leading to more extreme actions which may provoke further defections from the party and cabinet. If they have any integrity at all some of the people in there must be feeling very uncomfortable.

When you look around at the moment, negative growth in the last quarter; pound down; Tory Grandees expelled; constitutional conventions being weaponised and destroyed; one of the most effective Conservative politicians, Ruth Davidson, resigning; Europe and the rest of the world scratching their heads. How bad can Jeremy Corbyn be to beat this?
