The “term insurance” policy has fallen into disrepute after it was used by corrupt FBI officials to describe their plan to obstruct the Donald Trump presidency. This morning on U.K. television, Brexit Party leader Nigel Farage gave insurance policy a more positive spin.

On Friday, January 31, at 11 p.m. local time, the U.K. will at long last leave the European Union. Brexiteers will celebrate all across the country, with a big event sponsored by Leave Means Leave organization in London’s Parliament Square from 9 p.m. to 11:15 pm.
Now that both the House of Commons and the House of Lords approved the necessary enabling legislation, the U.K. will formally exit the European Union on January 31 at 11 p.m. local time at long last.
Within days of Boris Johnson and the Conservative Party winning a “stonking” majority, as the British say, in the December 12 U.K. elections, the successful candidates were sworn in as members of parliament (MPs). There is no two-month gap like in the U.S. Congress. Johnson himself had to win reelection in his London-area seat to maintain his eligibility to serve as prime minister.
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 plan to field about 600 candidates in the December 12 U.K. general election is not without controversy. Farage, who will campaign tirelessly for his colleagues throughout the country, stands accused of being a spoiler.
Today, Halloween, was supposed to be Brexit Day in the U.K., when the country would officially leave the European Union and regain its independence and sovereignty. Prime Minister Boris Johnson promised the nation that Brexit would occur on October 31 “do or die.” The avuncular Johnson also claimed that he’d rather “die in a ditch” than agree to another Brexit deadline extension.
Boris Johnson‘s lifelong dream of becoming U.K. prime minister has become something of a nightmare thus far.
He’s lost his “Conservative” majority in parliament, the House of Commons, and the pro-European Union, Remain-dominated chamber seemingly has passed legislation blocking a no-deal Brexit. Plus, the opposition Labor Party under Marxist anti-Semite Jeremy Corbyn has blocked Johnson’s call for a snap national election to break the impasse, reversing their new election advocacy. Making matters worse, the Tony Blair-appointed, globalist Supreme Court ruled that Johnson’s temporary prorogation (suspension) of parliament was illegal.
U.K. Prime Minster Boris Johnson has moved to temporarily suspend — or prorogue — parliament, the Westminster-based House of Commons in London, apparently to thwart meddling by pro-Remain, anti-Brexit lawmakers.
U.K. Prime Minister Boris Johnson is currently meeting with European leaders in an effort to reach a Brexit deal by the current October 31 deadline. On June 23, 2016, the British electorate voted to leave the European Union and reclaim the country’s sovereignty over laws, trade, and immigration, but the divorce decree still hasn’t been signed. Although there is some equivocation, grandstanding EU officials, so far, seem less than receptive to reopening the negotiations.
