I’m cautiously optimistic. In spite of his hair, Boris Johnson is not Donald Trump, and he’s not Winston Churchill. But is he good enough to deliver Brexit? Maybe. At least we know he believes it’s the right thing to do.
 
Boris Johnson seems like the type of guy who should have someone following him around playing Yakety Sax whenever he's doing anything.

At this junction, I don't know if there's anyone on this planet that could get this parliament to pass a Brexit deal in any form.

Well Boris is just one guy. Nigel also needs to come through. I know he wants to retire, play golf and do his gay little podcast all day, but now is the time to use that bully pulpit.
 
Jo Swinson rules out Lib Dem pact with Labour under Jeremy Corbyn
New Lib Dem leader says Labour leader cannot be trusted on Brexit

Jo Swinson, the new Lib Dem leader, has again ruled out working with Jeremy Corbyn, branding him a Brexiter who could not be trusted to fight for a second referendum to keep the UK in the EU.

She said her door was open to MPs from other parties who wanted to work towards a second referendum.

But she said the Lib Dems could not join a pact with Labour while Corbyn was leader, even in the event of a hung parliament.

Speaking on BBC Radio 4’s Today programme, Swinson was scathing about Labour’s Brexit approach, even though the party has now said it would support a referendum on any deal put forward.

“There is nothing to suggest Jeremy Corbyn can be trusted on Brexit or that he will campaign to remain. Let’s remember in the last referendum he went on holiday for two weeks in the middle of it. Forgive me for not believing Jeremy Corbyn’s mealy-mouthed words on Brexit. He can barely bring himself to say the words ‘people’s vote’,” she said.

“I’m not supporting Jeremy Corbyn. If we are to have an election I would fight as Lib Dem leader as the party of remain that hasn’t equivocated on this, like Jeremy Corbyn.

“There are plenty of people in the Labour party that I can work with, that I do work with. But Jeremy Corbyn is a Brexiteer. He cannot be trusted on Brexit. That is abundantly clear.

“And to boot he is somebody that is failing to deal with the scourge of antisemitism in his own party.”

Swinson said she was talking to some Conservative MPs about the possibility of defecting to her party after recruiting Chuka Umunna from Labour via the Independent group. “Our door is absolutely open to people who share our values,” she said.

Since her election by Lib Dem members on Monday, Swinson has come under fire for her role in the coalition government as a minister voting for austerity measures and bringing in controversial policies such as employment tribunal fees.

Ian Lavery, the Labour party chair, said: “Jo Swinson sat at the top table of the coalition government and voted for vicious attacks on the most vulnerable and tax cuts for the super-rich and big businesses.

“Austerity couldn’t have happened without Liberal Democrats – leading to shocking levels of child poverty, the tripling of tuition fees, a homelessness crisis and rising food bank use. Labour is the only party that can stop the Tories and transform Britain so that it works for the many not the few.”

Swinson said she regretted not winning the battle against employment tribunal fees, saying it had been the wrong policy.

But she defended her record in the coalition under David Cameron, saying: “I think we achieved a lot of good things in government … I’ve also been very frank that in owning the successes we also need to be clear there were mistakes made as well.”

Boris is the right choice, in my opinion. He is not afraid of letting himself be seen as a bit of a buffoon and takes a profoundly optimistic view of the country; something that has been sorely lacking by the entirely negative view put forward by whining remainers.
