Prime minister's 80-seat majority 'doesn't mean he will get his own way on Brexit'

Who are you trying to kid? He's out for no deal. Autocracy before diplomacy for Boris.

Oh so basically the same as before except this time with no representation, seems more like the UK is just shooting itself in the foot here like it’s a waste of time really.

Could, if he wants to be voted out in the next election. Farage will be waiting!

That would be sensible but would it make the leavers happy. They've all waved their flags and celebrated, maybe they don't care.

That’s it fellas, keep the dream alive. Meanwhile, in the real world......

Anonymous 'Remain-backing former cabinet minister' and the (not very) Independent hoping that if they wish really, really hard their dream of Britain as a vassal state might come true. Not a chance.

Closer and closer!

Well we can only hope he doesn’t. Most importantly not at the expense of border controls or UK fishing.
