A bit more detail on what the front runner for becoming new UK PM is thinking on Brexit.
I had the headlines earlier:
BJ wanting a no deal is hardly news, he's been banging on about it in his Telegraph column ever since he got the boot as Foreign Minister (although he says he resigned).
Via Reuters, a bit more from his interview:
- "My pledge is to come out of the EU at Halloween on 31 October,"
- "And the way to get our friends and partners to understand how serious we are is finally, I'm afraid, to abandon the defeatism and negativity that has enfolded us in a great cloud for so long and to prepare confidently and seriously for... a no-deal outcome."
Gotta say, BoJo has a way with words. An Eton old boy, he has taken full advantage of the emphasis on rhetoric at the school. Good for him.
