This is a sham negotiation. It is nonsense barely dressed up.

It is a whole heap of “trust us” (Yes, trust *us*, who already agreed to the WA but now don’t) about commitments to something entirely unspecified.

We are no longer even pretending to be a serious, reliable country.
Also, Britain, take him at his word.

As it’s proposed our pension age be raised to 75, we have Johnson’s “commitment” to environmental, product & labour laws but Brexit Britain will “diverge” from EU laws.

Forget the trade deal. And put the rest in our pipe & smoke it.

Brexit.
Blink & the last 3 years never happened.

Can’t imagine the EU will treat this letter other than badly, the constant moving of goalposts to suit the British govt du jour.

Johnson’s govt is buried so deep in its own bravado, it forgets the outside world can think, read, listen.
And, well, some of the inside world too.

It’s a big game to shift the blame. The Brexiters will never accept responsibility - there will always be a bogeyman.

And we are paying now to fund it, & we will pay again - in countless, unforgivable ways- when their big bluff flops.
Silly season has taken on a whole new meaning this August.

A few short questions from the EU will kill off the nonsense in Johnson’s letter. How? What? When? Just for starters.

(Ends. Tries to go back to a summer of intelligible fiction...)
