If polls are to be believed, U.K. Prime Minister Boris Johnson and his Conservative Party will win a parliamentary majority of some kind in the U.K. general election on Thursday, December 12. Johnson has promised to “get Brexit done,” but that may just be a euphemism for Brexit in Name Only 2.0, which would still keep the U.K. subject to heavy handed, anti-Democratic European Union rules and regulations and its bloated bureaucracy.

Brexit Party leader Nigel Farage‘s cell phone must have been blowing up over the weekend given that “Conservative, Inc.” plus Conservative Party officials freaking out for weeks over the upcoming December 12 general election. With nomination papers due into the government on November 14, Farage planned to field 600 candidates that could be spoilers.
With the U.K. general election scheduled for December 12, many wondered if Brexit Party leader Nigel Farage himself would stand as one of the insurgent group’s 600 or so parliamentary candidates for a seat in the House of Commons.
“Theresa the appeaser,” as some call her, has done it again. After repeatedly promising the British electorate that Brexit means Brexit, that the U.K. would officially leave the European Union on March 29, and that no deal is better than a bad deal, Prime Minister Theresa May has announced tonight in a televised address that she has asked the European Commission to extend the departure date to June 30. EU official Donald Tusk has said that the EU would agree to the three-month extension under the Lisbon Treaty only if the U.K. parliament first approves May’s negotiated withdrawal agreement, which Brexit champion Nigel Farage has described as a surrender document, and which the House of Commons has voted down twice already. Ironically, this Catch-22, however, means that a no-deal Brexit is still possible.
