Who Delayed Brexit?

The Johnson Government is promising to Deliver Brexit, come what may, no ifs and no buts. The sub-text is that, unlike its weak predecessors, this is a Government that will tolerate no further delays in carrying out the mandate of Leaving the EU given by “the British people” in the Referendum of June 2016. Many businesses, previously opposed to a “No-Deal” Brexit, are fed up with the uncertainty and just want to get it over with.

In all this, it’s quite easy to forget that the reason for the delays and the uncertainty, the reason why the UK did not leave on March 29th, is that the Withdrawal Agreement  to do just that was repeatedly blocked in Parliament by that faction of the Conservative Party that now makes up the Johnson Government.
