Brexit Bill Passed

Boris Johnson has wasted no time since the general election last week, see: http://hpanwo-tv.blogspot.com/2019/12/post-general-election-livestream.html. He has presented his EU Withdrawal Agreement Bill for a second reading in Parliament and it was comfortably approved of by the new set of MP's. This means Brexit on January the 31st is now far more likely. Not only that, but the bill sets a maximum duration for the post-Brexit transitional period of just eleven months. This may well be the spur it needs after the endless dithering under Theresa May's direction. This breakthrough comes after a few days of negotiating with Brussels in a way that makes it clear that the rules have now changed. You can see it in the way Guy Verhofstadt looks and talks. The European Parliament's Brexit Coordinator now knows very well that Boris means business! The Leader of the Opposition, Jeremy Corbyn, of course opposed the bill, saying: "there is a better and fairer way for this country to leave the EU.". This is odd seeing as he has never proposed one that doesn't involve Britain not leaving the EU. He also said something else that took my breath away with its audacity: "The government's mishandling of Brexit had paralysed the political system, divided communities and was a national embarrassment." The link below means I don't have to repeat myself over what I think of that and have commented on many times, but suffice to say he is projecting somewhat! It is incredible that in just three days with Boris there has been more progress towards Brexit than in the previous three and a half years. Boris' deal is not perfect by any means, but it is a way of moving forward. I am very confident now that we will be a free country on January the 31st and that now we don't have the Yvette Coopers and Oliver Letwins of this world being able to block no-deal, there is an alternative option. The door to Brexit is finally open!
