May Fights On The Brexit Beaches: But For What?

You have to admire May. Even this bog which regards her government as perhaps the worst in our modern democratic history. She struggles forward with endless platitudes, laced with proposals which cannot work, are unacceptable to the EU and which her Cabinet, fighting each other so hard every meeting is said to be a pitched battle, cannot agree on.  And if they eventually agree a fudge, the Commons will vote it down.

The latest is that we will pretend to leave but actually stay. It is wrapped up in loads of fudgey words, but that is what it means. It could be the best idea yet. The Brexiteers are really worried. That is a very good sign.
