And where were, then? We were talking about the decline of the BBC as a serious news organisation.

We're always talking about the decline of the BBC.

The latest BBC posture is that the absence of a withdrawal agreement equals a no deal Brexit.

The BBC has become a kind of Brexit Inquisition, where the idea we might stay in the European Union is treated as a heresy.

For the last three years I've been saying we're not going to end up leaving the European Union.
And for those three years the BBC has been insisting with almost religious devotion that yes we are.

Now, one of us, me or the BBC, is going to have been wrong in everything we've said for the last three years.
The BBC, with their billions of revenue and thousands of journalists. Or me, with my internet connection.

One of us got this story right, and I think it's going to be me.

I think by the end of the year we're still going to be in the European Union, we'll have had a general election, and everyone will be focused on the referendum coming next spring.

By the time we resolve Brexit, we will have wasted five years and tens of billions cleaning up after David Cameron and Boris Johnson.

Eton school is a national sickness. It is a cancer in the country for producing juvenile, truncated men like that.
