One more trip, one more trip, one more inglorious trip to rescue Brexit from the crashing jaws of the EU from 29 March to 31 October. Once more, dear Parliament, heal the breach, unite and close the widening ghastly gap perforce we fall back on another Marshall Aid, this time form the Silk Road or even Saudi Arabia or Malaysia. Maintain the integrity of the UK, Northern Ireland, Wales, Scotland, England, as one whole. Cannibalise Brexit a little if you must, carve out the unpleasant part, give us our whole UK back, make us your permanent allies, we would make the EU our permanent interest. We would not be perfidious Albion, we would not put ourselves first like Trump. We are your next-door neighbours, for good or ill. The backstop is the worst of times for us and for you. Bless you all, the long, the short, and the tall, bless you all, ring out the old, ring in the new, so the nightingale may sing in Berkeley Square again. Dato’ Yunus Raiss JP FRSA FCIL ...

Oh come ye Silent EU give us Europa’s blessing, remove the Backstop, whatever it may mean, the backstab or not, before another Marshall Aid kicks in from Silk Road or even Saudi Arabia or Japan or remote Malaysia. We love Scotland, Wales and indeed Northern Ireland. We are one. Cannabalise Brexit a little if you must, carve out the unpleasant parts, but give us our freedom back. Make us your permanent allies, we would make EU our permanent interest. We would not be perfidious Albion, we would not put ourselves first like Trump. Oh come ye good European neighbours, we could do with your help. We are your next door neighbours, for good or ill. The Backstop is the sore point, it’s Catch 22 again. It is the worst of times for us and for you. Let the sun and the moon continue shining on EU and UK. Bless you all, the long, the short and the tall, the old and the new EU, bless you all. Let us work together without malice, with charity for all. Ring out the old, rin...

Theresa May, ambushed by Gina Miller, the Courts and Tory rebels, makes a poignant plea with the Parliament to accept the best deal on offer from the EU, for she does not aspire to be the Sacrificial Lamb. Higamus, hogamus, the litmus test Brexit was Ecstasy. No more Perestroika or parley, just the Backstop. Divorce, divorce, third time divorce! EU retorts with its demand: alimony and Northern Ireland. They strive here, they strive there, jaded Brexit lingers on almost two years long, the mail-order Brexit languishes. Why? Brexit is caught in the crushing jaws of the economy. Tory unity and national interest evaporate in the argy-bargee steam. Loyalty, the Tories’ talisman, melts in the ceaseless confounding heat of entrenched interests, unwittingly leading to self-harm by the new Luddites. EU unable to deny Brexit, decides to spite it. May hopes Brexit can revive the Rolls-Royce Spirit of Ecstasy that made Britain Great, that may bring back the golden days. EU ...
