While the situation in the UK seems more and more complicated, Prime Minister Boris Johnson multiplies failures and was again disavowed by his Parliament.
The House of Commons is the Mecca of parliamentary life. We take off our hat, we listen, respect ... The Brexit has made a souk!
In the last 36 hours, Boris Johnson has been disavowed three times. To inflict this rout, they all put themselves in it. The Labor Party preparing the elections, the Lib Dems who refuse the Brexit, the ultra who demand it, the rebels of the Conservative Party who denounce the hussar methods, the cautious who demand guarantees. They do not agree on anything except refusing to sign a blank check to Bojo who pays off.
Not to mention Brussels, which misses no opportunity to weaken the enemy. Sunday, Michel Barnier excludes renegotiating. No plan B, the United Kingdom must surrender. On Monday, the Commission claims to have received no concrete proposals, giving credit to those who suspect Boris Johnson of pretending to negotiate. Tuesday, the same, with a sorry air claim that the agenda is untenable, bringing water to the mill opponents who refuse to divorce at All Saints. Wednesday finally, the Commission insists, the safety net that encloses the English in the customs union is "the only solution". While this is the real problem.
Result: Boris Johnson is in tatters. Teresa May took three years, six weeks. The parliamentarians took the taste of the blood. Anarchy pleases the news channels. We laugh at a minister who wallows on the benches, we hear Bojo swear, we see the member who changes camp live, it's full of tiny twists.
It feels like Comedy but the fatality is at work since the referendum: it is a tragedy. The Kingdom is disunited, Europe is detestable. This divorce is like a fragmentation bomb.
