And I work it out like this. List all the ways it can end.
A border in the Irish Sea
Irish partition
Britain staying in Europe

Every one of those forces Johnson to resign. No, we haven't quite finished . . .

If Johnson is going to keep his job he has to find another option to those three.
And the only answer I can find is if we don't have a border but we don't follow European rules either.

And that's where Johnson has fallen through a gap in the universe. he keeps looking for an answer where Northern Ireland stays in the United Kingdom and stays in the European Union at the same time

Northern Ireland has been like that until now. In both the United Kingdom and the European Union at the same time.
But it cannot maintain that state if Britain leaves Europe.

If Britain leaves Europe Northern Ireland has to be in one or the other. And Johnson has to choose which, and both of them cost him his job

If Johnson tries to partition Ireland he resigns. But if he keeps us in Europe he also resigns.
Which is why I keep saying he's going to resign. Just like Theresa May before.

I can predict resignations even beyond Johnson. I predict this. From now on every prime minister that tries to conclude Brexit will resign without getting it done.
This will continue until we find one that's willing to abandon it.

At the same time as no government can get Brexit done, Scotland will keep pursuing independence.
By the end of this the English are going to have no country and no economy left. Unless they do as I say.

Sack Johnson, expel the Brexiteers, and abandon Brexit.
