I just bought some cool Brexit Party merchandise. I had always wanted a t-shirt but didn't like the white one. Now they have a blue one, much nicer. Also bought a pair of official socks for my UK Brexiteer friend who always complains of wet socks when he hikes in Scotland.

The cost of international shipping was more than the cost of both items, but it's a worthy cause.

Check out all their new stuff and upcoming events in your area.

When you are governed by BJ Cummings (Boris Johnson and Dominic Cummings) what do you expect?

Just watched a funny moment when Boris was asked by a presstitute if he'd ask Brussels for another extension.

He replied, "I'd rather be dead in a ditch!"

"Either is acceptable, both would be preferable."

Is it really this easy?

A plan under consideration would see Johnson sending a letter alongside the request to extend Article 50 setting out that the government does not want any delay after Oct. 31, according to the report.

Meanwhile I got a notice that my official Brexit Party t-shirt has shipped! I'm so excited!

Haha, that would be funny.

"Please extend Article 50, although, I don't really want you to".

What people forget is that the UK,like every other country in the EU,has the power of veto over anything the EU is planning to do.
If it decides to spend the next year disrupting everything the EU is trying to do it is perfectly entitled to do so.
I would urge people to keep their powder dry before celebrating any victories or defeats for Boris - this saga still has many twists and turns to go for many months yet.
Trust me.

It looks to me like the statist-globalists and the liberal-elite deep state are almost done doing their job of thwarting the will of the people. Bye bye, you deplorable Brexiteers. BoJo is going down in flames.

Except Johnson's 14 point clear in the polls, has already stated that he will test and take advice on the no-deal laws and according some reports his Government and their legal advisors have found twenty ways around the act. There is also the possibility that a deal is acheived, such as a NI only backstop which would be run from Stormont coupled with an Irish agricultural deal, as all produce is checked at ports and airports anyway.

The Act was poorly conceived as it only applies to one peson in the UK do something, and is not a criminal law that applies to everyone equally, to this extent how far a law can commit an individual to do something in a negotiation is questionable, as are whether the EU would agree an extension if no new proposals were put on the table and it may be impossible for Britain to negotiate any deal without an UK representative European Commisioner as all countries muist be represented and the UK Government have stated they will not be apppointing one.

Everyone abides by laws that apply to us all equally but it becomes very questionable when laws are directed at one person (even if that person is the PM), as compared to laws relating to society in general.

It seems to me that Johnson has plenty of options, that the opposition parties can't just keep runing away from a general election and will need eventually to answer to the British people they serve.
