"An establishment elite who never accepted the fundamental right of the public to choose democratically their institutions, are working towards overturning them. "Large sections of the Government were working on the Chequers plan, and they've just had a coup de grâce at the last minute. I feel pretty sore about that".
"The public will know they have been betrayed."
He attacked the PM for negotiating with the EU "on our knees", blasting it as "pathetic". And he claimed the "Brexit-wrecking" Chequers deal could end up putting Jeremy Corbyn in Number 10.
High-profile Brexiteer Jacob Rees-Mogg seemed to support the idea of a conspiracy to undermine Brexit.

“If we get to the spring of next year and Article 50 has been suspended or if this betrayal has continued, then yes, I would seriously consider chucking myself back into the frontline of this.

The fight isn't over , I believe Theresa May will be brought down then negotiations can begin under a new leader.
At this moment in time I'd even take Boris to replace her , charisma is something we need right now.
The ship is rocking but we aint sinking.

Highly unlikely for a number of reasons, no one wants the poisoned Brexit chalice.
They've spent 2 years to get to this point and only have 2 months left to come up with another plan.
The truth is, No deal was never going to happen, how do I know this? Because buildings haven't been built for thousands of jobs, hiring process hasn't begun etc. If this was an airport this would have started last year, its the country and there's no
plan for no deal other than "eh we'll give you 40 million to sort it out.
It needs sorted out before we get to that point.
Lastly, at cheqeurs everyone had a chance to say what they wanted and no one had another plan.
May is screwed either way imo. She gives a bad brexit deal and she's gone, no deal she's gone, a close EU relationship with no say she's gone. There is no great deal to be had.

I love it how all the pro-Brexit politicians are jumping off the boat and leaving. Why is that? Farage, Boris, Davis? They haven't had any major involvement in negotiations, have let go of their positions in government. It's very telling to me. Seems like they bit a lot more than they could chew.
This was never meant to be a real thing ya know? It was just meant to be a political talking point for Tory politicians and the like.

Besides, give it a few years and if the view is that ties to the EU should be loosened then the politicians can make that happen.

After a few years the deals will be done and may not be able to be undone.

If they can't/won't do it now ...... it will never get done and the UK will simply
end up as a tiny satellite of the EU.
In the first place the UK only joined a *common market* for trade, now they
are in a union which wont let them out!!
