Arrogance hasn’t work for any of you predecessors! Please learn from your mistakes!

So was King Canute

😭

Why is this lying criminal not being prosecuted yet?

Keep up everybody. Don't forget No. 1 priority is to make sure EU gets the blame. EU staying calm and resolute. Johnson/Cummings combo trying to be smart.

Why do these people see negotiation in terms of 'blinking' or 'backing down' are they children?

'Cos the little voices in his head say so and we're just jealous 'cos they're only talking to him

The man is an arse.

Has anybody even worked out 'how' the EU needs to back down? What exactly do they need to change?

What are they backing down from? Why should they change the rules for a leaving member and not for remaining members?

Back down from a deal negotiated over 2 years?

Still...

And, of course, the alternative to having a customs barrier between the EU and a third country (the UK) would be what, BorisJohnson ?

Was just as confident in getting a great deal.......

This is somewhere on the same probability level as “Prince Andrew makes a full confession.”

We never doubted his inflated ego or confidence. His confidence is sky high, suspended far above his skill level. Possibly on a zip wire, holding flags.

If ProjectFear is bunk, why should nodeal and UK 'keeping it on the table' frighten EU back to negotiations, same crap arguments mean they wouldn't be affected either!

Is that a Liechtenstein flag that Johnson is holding? Brilliant another world class trade deal! Oh no, a warning flag. Don’t drive off a cliff into the sea without a surfboard or a paddle or a clue!

It may be an urban myth, but Johnson is the captain of this ship

Says that arrogant man with his shirt sleeves rolled up tie tucked in exploiting yet another hospital visit for photo shoot of himself. RecallParliament Boris Johnson. Face some scrutiny Britain’s Trump

He’s an idiot if he really thinks that.

Makes you think, is Boris really pro- remain and looking to make Brexit so utterly reprehensible that no one sane will allow it to go through on this path? Or is he just a moron...

Have we ever had a PM who is so full of 💩?

Great news!

Johnson knows the EU will make no major changes to the deal. Aware that his idiotic supporters will believe anything, he's attempting to shift the blame for the forthcoming disaster to the EU.

When will BorisJohnson start to understand that this not a game of 'wiff waff' & that our very futures should not be 'spazzed up the wall' in order for him to have his infamous day in history?

Yes they will collapse in the face of his god like negotiation skills. If not he will wave that kipper at them.

Yeah, we fold, Mister Johnson.

Titanic captain 'confident' iceberg will back down in game of chicken.

Easy peasy! In this game of chicken Bojo is the one driving at high speed towards cliff top. 🇪🇺doesn’t need to do much except avoid him. They were warned.

Is this his only strategy?

Your other story about pigs hearts neglects to mention where the pigs brain goes, I think we're found out where.

BorisJohnson is simply playing politics he knows there is no possible negotiated exit possible and just to make certain is now infuriating the EU with his silly comments the leaked message is just a taster of just might happen possibly worse possibly better

The EU will if course not back down, as the CU and the freedoms of the EEA simply cannot be compromised. The EU has offered Britain a deal, many have forgotten this includes a transition to a FTA.

🤡

Still?! 😨

😂😂😂😂

😂😂😂😂 I needed a good laugh 👍 ty

Like a toddler convinced he can negotiate his own bedtime. With accompanying tantrum

He does realise the EU have access to the internet, right?

EU, throw some 💩 in Boris' face!!

What hubris.

Why would the EU back down? They hold all the cards.

BJ (such initials) is confident pigs can fly as well

I guess he's counting on his likability when he says things like this.

Thoroughly read and adopted the Trump BS playbook. Trade wars are easy to win...

Well, knowing how accurate his previous predictions were.....

Just as delusional as Trump.

Brexit betrayal: Boris Johnson thinks he knows who leaked Yellowhammer in no deal shockBrexit: Nigel Farage points out the 'only chance' that Remainers have of 'toppling' Prime Minister Boris Johnson. Farage says that only way that it can be done is without Jeremy Corbyn. I'm guessing conker nose Hammond. No deal will be disastrous for the EU, as they will no longer have money from UK, one of Europe's largest financiers. The money that is given to EU will be spent in UK in all areas. All airports, civil or military, will be used for business transactions with countries outside EU.
