Boris Johnson’s done a Brexit deal with the EU – only 7 responses you need
Boris Johnson has agreed a Brexit deal with the EU but it still remains to be seen if the UK will be leaving Europe on 31 October, with the DUP opposing it and the so-called prime minister having pissed away his Commons majority a while back.
Here’s what Johnson had to say.
We’ve got a great new deal that takes back control — now Parliament should get Brexit done on Saturday so we can move on to other priorities like the cost of living, the NHS, violent crime and our environment #GetBrexitDone #TakeBackControl

1.
Number 10 are now saying that a deal has been done. Congratulations. After three years of hard work, two prime ministers and holding all the cards, you have beaten the EU into accepting one of their own initial suggestions, which Parliament will now reject.

“Arlene. Before I give you this money, are you *sure* you know what a bribe is?”
“Yes”
“Because a billion pounds is a lot of money”
“Yes, thank you”
“So I give you this bribe, and in return you agree to do stuff we tell you”
“Agreed”
*stifled giggle*
