Tory leadership contender Jeremy Hunt has refused to guarantee that the UK will leave the EU before Christmas, but said he "expects" it to happen by then.

He would not say when Brexit would take place if he became PM, telling the BBC: "I'm being honest with people".

Rival Boris Johnson said the UK would leave by 31 October "come what may".

Why can't they both just show a bit of realistic paragmatism and honesty and say they've no idea how to achieve this Brexit at all because Parliament will not allow it?

Are the EU going to 'blink' first?

I don't think so.

Nigel Farage causes chaos by slamming von der Leyen’s ‘communist’ vision.

I'm still not convinced he is correct in asserting the belief that Brexit will go ahead.

You're toast!

As if that thing cares about that, the time has come for moderate Labour to get rid of that thing and the gang.

The government and in coming Boris have lost a vote by 41 votes. Benn-Burt amendment: If parliament suspended, it must be recalled for five days of debate on N.Irland.

YES 315
NO 274
MAJORITY 41
