It just occurred to me. This is January 30th, 2020, the last full day that the United Kingdom will be a member of the European Union. Tomorrow evening at 11pm, GMT, Brexit will occur. A bad decision, executed in an inexecrable fashion, implemented with results that are unpredictable. We'll know more in 11 months' time. Eugh...
Nigel Farage, the leader of the Brexit party, flouted the rules in the European Parliament by flag-waving in the chamber as he made his final speech. I am not going to tribute him with any positive role in the Brexit process. There is no positivity in Brexit. One line I take is that it is an expression of internecine warfare within the ruling Conservative party, the other is that it shows the dangers of weak leadership: David Cameron and particularly Theresa May are glaring examples of that. Also, although the Brexit referendum showed a clear percentage in favour, it was not binding. However, there was no way that the outcome could be anything else but: Brexit.
