PJM: If European Union leaders thought there would be any flagging or hesitation from British Prime Minister Boris Johnson when the Brexit deadline loomed, they are sadly mistaken.
Johnson penned an op-ed in The Sun and The Daily Express that explicitly threatened a British exit from the EU with or without a formal agreement by October 31.
“After decades of campaigning, three years of arguments and seemingly endless months of pointless delay, it is now just 25 days until the United Kingdom’s membership of the European Union comes to an end. We will be packing our bags and walking out on October 31. The only question is whether Brussels cheerily waves us off with a mutually agreeable deal, or whether we will be forced to head off on our own,” he wrote.
The EU is perfectly aware of Johnson’s political troubles — both in his own party and with the opposition. But Johnson’s threat should now impress on the EU the seriousness of the situation. Part of the calculus used by the EU was always that the Brits would get cold feet and keep delaying their exit until a change in political leadership brought them back to their senses.
That’s not going to happen now.
Go away Romy, you’re wasting valuable comment space and starting to annoy the hell out of our patience. If we wanted a get rich scheme we might pay attention to Joel O’Steen or a bunch of those other christian phonies and their prosperity gospel bs.

“Romy”, get off our lawn. Btw, how’s the weather in Nigeria? Or Siberia? Or wherever.

There are some very, very powerful forces opposing Brexit, so we’ll see if it happens.
This is a one side wins and one side loses situation, there is no in between since any “deal” that compromises anything is a win for the anti’s and a loss for the pro’s.
One thing for certain: UK wins by exiting. Painful to watch this soap opera.
Announcing a YUUUGE trade deal with Johnson would go a long way in helping them walk out of the EU.
House of Lords a few years ago where the Baroness gives the two-fingered salute to the man speaking who made a comment about her age best sums up the pending departure. Hey, wake up Britain, you’re free.

That was right after he wished Hitler well on his attack on Poland!
That was right after he wished Obama well on his maiden little sissy girls bike ride!
That was right after he wished Micheal Obama well on covering up his penis by wearing a dress!
That was right after he wished Hillary Clinton well for her 51 state victory over Trump in the presidential election!
It couldn’t be more plain. The same globalists are working with the American Left franchise to either get rid of, obstruct, or wait out POTUS Trump’s term.
One side of the Brit Pols wants to stay. That side worked with the EU to do everything to delay Brexit until everyone gave up. Thankfully it didn’t work.

isn’t this how the civil war started in our country?
a desire to leave a union because it no longer served the desires of those that wished to leave.
and also the revolutionary war?
the same desire to leave a union.
there’s a lesson there some where.
Just for the record – it’s two words and two fingers over there.
They do it differently.
Good for England.
Get out while the getting is good.
The EU is a nightmarish conglomeration of globalism and their hopes and dreams- get away from that while you have the chance.
US Liberals are swallowing the stuff spewed out by Brit “entertainers” like homo puff pastry Elton John and others that the UK must stay in the EU.
Why, I’m not entirely sure. It would be economically better for the UK to be in our economic house, for all concerned.
America is also still better than decadent Europe, most of whose citizens haven’t the foggiest notion of real freedom and independence.
