> Super Canada plan
Also, this guy is a pretty great resource on all things trade when it comes to Brexit.
He doesn’t explain why in this tweet, but it doesn’t sound like the Canada plan is going to work…

I don’t know. I find the whole trade thing really boring except when it comes to the effect it might have on Northern Ireland.
I feel like the EU cares a lot more about peace there than the current crop of Tories…

Maybe this is all a crazy elaborate ruse to be able to get into the bed of war with the US? Because the EU would obviously have something to say about it. We can jump on anyone we like and reseed our poweful roots of being Michael Fabricants.
Boris better hurry up or Trump will trigger off too early and we can’t be the first goon to follow.
Jk, partly, but who knows, we’re on the cusp of something awful I reckon.

Maybe a big fuck off world war will clear out all the nasty air.

Yeah but the Michael Fabricants will all be safe and just sending innocent people to their graves along with all the people thinking they are serving their country.

I quite like how the cabinet is summarised here:
> Priti Patel is home secretary, despite being sacked by May for conducting secret meetings with Israeli officials while on holiday.
> Gavin Williamson, who just months ago looked at risk of prosecution for allegedly leaking information from a classified national security meeting, has been reincarnated as education secretary.
> Dominic Raab and Andrea Leadsom, who both resigned at different points over a Brexit deal that they had either helped negotiate or signed off on, now have top jobs.

Happened round here. Whole Foods put one of their stores in this posh suburb called Giffnock. It didn’t do that well, so it shut and Lidl took the site, outraging locals.
