My latest blog is now on @lsebrexitvote. In it, I think about how the opposition might react to the weekend's events. I argue that the opposition parties face a key strategic choice. blogs.lse.ac.uk/brexit/2019/10… 1/
Either they continue to fight for a better Brexit (and risk remaining divided); or they accept that Johnson's deal is Brexit, and unite to fight against it. 2/
I argue that they should accept that Brexit has now been defined (notwithstanding the fact that it will be a difficult step for those who want a better Brexit to take). 3/
Would be very interested in others' thoughts. I'm not sure that the argument is right. I acknowledge that there are risks with accepting Johnson's definition, but I don't see how seeking to redefine Brexit leads to a clear path forward. 4/4
References in the blog to @StevePeers @rdanielkelemen and @anandMenon1. Big questions for @UKLabour @LibDems and @theSNP to tackle. The key is whether you can unite.
