LONDON - It would not be sensible to aim only to leave the European Union without a deal but it would not be responsible to take no deal off the table, Boris Johnson, the bookmakers’ favorite to succeed Theresa May as British prime minister, said on Sunday. On Friday former foreign minister Johnson said Britain should leave the bloc with or without a deal on Oct. 31.

“No one sensible would aim exclusively for a no-deal outcome. No one responsible would take no-deal off the table,” he wrote in his weekly column for the Daily Telegraph newspaper. “If we are courageous and optimistic, we can strike a good bargain with our friends across the Channel, come out well and on time – by October 31 – and start delivering on all the hopes and ambitions of the people.”

Brexit brings down May, Johnson stakes leadership claimPrime Minister Theresa May says she will step down on June 7, succumbing to calls in her governing Conservative Party to make way for a new leader We ALL look forward to this moment happening in America soon *slow clap with eyeroll* This person is thoroughly terrible in her at least jingoistic if not completely racist stance since home secretary. She took the job and is now playing the 'poor me' role. Cheers out to T May. She is a fighter. I would love for an educator to create a 10 question multiple choice test on Brexit and submit to our stable genius and the average citizen in GB. Bonus question: Point out Iceland on a Map.
