Johnson's f*ckwitted attempt to bully Europe with the threat of inflicting No Deal chaos on our own economy if they reject a deal - which the British people have yet to see (!) - has failed. THREAD. 1/ ...
2/ The Spectator briefing contained even more threats, today being repeated by Cummings while the Lonby hacks dutifully act as stenographers... to end security co-op with EU members ... well look at a map...
3/ British troops in NATO EFP all in countries with material interest in backing Merkel-Macron ... the secret meeting with Hungary, which is half controlled by Putin ... missed the point .... 
4/ The other threat is to play fast and loose with the courts over the Benn Act. This will trigger an interim government within days if executed ...
5/ BTW the real "Surrender" here was the insistence on pulling NI out of the CU... if Dublin didn't flinch when Rajan threatened to turn gas off, it won't flinch now - Varadkar knows he's dealing with a powerless patsy of the alt-right ...
6/ So bring on the election: good luck to local Tory Assocs mobilising small businesses to campaign for the collapse of Sterling, house prices, credit conditions - all calculable by OBR/IFS/BoE - you cant eat xenophobia!
