No deal: will it happen?
The Brexit endgame and a tale of two Dominics.
鈥淭here is no plan for no deal because we are going to get a great deal.鈥� That鈥檚 what Boris Johnson, then Foreign Secretary, said in July 2017. A no-deal Brexit was once a fringe idea, but it鈥檚 now what Johnson鈥檚 government is working towards to fulfil his pledge to leave the EU by the end of October.
So has no deal become inevitable? Daniel Kraemer has been working on this for the last four months in the 麻豆官网首页入口鈥檚 Westminster newsroom. He tells us how Brexit has come down to a political showdown between two middle aged Conservative politicians called Dominic 鈥� one working towards no deal and the other trying to stop it. We also hear about the emotional appeal of no deal from Fintan O鈥橳oole, the Irish journalist and author of 鈥楬eroic Failure: Brexit and the Politics of Pain鈥�.
