Common sense

With the backstop thing, the EU have consistently said that they wont change it because it affects the good friday agreement etc. This is them getting directly involved in the politics of member nations, which is outwith their remit. By taking this stance and not being pragmatic they are forcing the UK to go down the no deal route which will cause far more serious issues regarding the border than any agreement. So their line is pure hypocrisy.

Do you think Farage was prepared for the outcome when he ran off when his side won, only to return when the US interest in him dried up?

Didn't Floppy head Johnson leg it as well afterwards and he was a leaver too, yeah?

Not getting this 'leavers ran away' thing, most of the prominent Brexiteers - Boris, Leadsom, Priti Patel, David Davis, Gove, Liam Fox etc etc - ended up in high ranking positions in government

Farage is an odd example as he was never part of government and has always been mainly a campaigner

Didn't Johnson rule himself out as a contender for Pm though after Cameron stepped down?

Johnson also wrote 2 newspaper columns on the eve of Brexit; Why I voted leave, and why I voted remain, so he could just pick which one won. Johnson is an opportunist.

He was going to run thinking he had the support of Gove but then Gove announced he was running himself so he didn't think he could win

I've no doubt he would love to be PM though and I think he would now run if the opportunity was there

Do you really believe that's the only reason he didn't run? I'd say he was thinking **** that, it's going to be a disaster

In fairness to May, she's been consistent in trying to carry out the wishes of the referendum and she hasn't really fielded any of the options that would allow the UK to remain when she could have.

She's been more committed to a leave outcome than any of the brexit campaigns leaders who turned tail and ran as soon as they won.
