An offer they will have to refuse: Boris Johnson is trying to force the EU into rejecting a Brexit deal
The offer, the key elements of which have beenIn summary Johnson's offer is that:
Yet Cummings and Johnson must know that this will be rejected. Indeed it is hard to come to any conclusion other than that rejection is precisely what these proposals are designed to achieve.Johnson was asked earlier this year by the Daily Mail what his favourite movie scene was andHowever, there was another scene from the film which better explains the situation Johnson has engineered.
By making such an unreasonable offer to the EU, Johnson could be hoping to bounce Brussels into rejecting any further delay. After all, what is the point for the EU of delaying Brexit for a third time when the UK government appears totally unwilling to agree to any of their demands for a deal after another delay?
That means that a no-deal Brexit would be a disastrous outcome, not just for the UK economy, but for the government which chose to put the country through it. For this reason it remains difficult to believe that this is seriously the outcome that either Johnson, or the EU, will ultimately go for.
