If in doubt look in Lear (King), that and Lear (Edward) have it pretty well sewn up.
Some thoughts by Jonathan Lis on the premierâs present predicament.
The last sentence certainly had me chuckling.

I will get the popcornâŠyou get the wine. The next few weeks are going to be âinterestingâ to watch - a car crash in slow motion!

My lofty estimation of you has been dealt a grievous blow, @carlmt. Popcorn and wine? 
Wine and POPCORN? 
Sorry Peter - Slipped up there.
My only (poor) excuse is that I have just spent two tiring days travelling around Yorkshire for work and my brain is frazzledâŠ

Rest assured Peter, a smooth Black Sheep ale went down VERY well last night during my stay at the Cow & Calf on Ilkley Moor.
Cant say that I am cured yet but I will enjoy taking the medicine!!!

Iâm partial to a pint of Timothy Taylorâs Landlord personally, though a Black Sheep does slip down nicely.
In my youth it was likely to be a Sam Smiths at âThe Newtonâ, or a pint of Tetleyâs in the Masonâs Arms (the pub is still there, I note, though I havenât been inside for 30 years) along with a game of Space Invaders - or a few in the St Leger - I forget what brewery the St Leger was tied to but it had even better colour âarcade games such as Defender and PacMan.
The contract was simple - the landlord didnât care how old you were as long as he could plausibly say he thought you were 18 and that we kept to the back room and didnât get rowdy.
Ah, simple times

Oh look - Johnson lying again. The ânewâ money for the NHS is mostly just money that they had but spending limits prevented them from accessing.
who the fuck is going to build these ânewâ hospitals and on what land?
With no eastern Europeans left in the country to get their hands dirty will it be left to Borisâ âfantasticâ new trade deal with India where he will have to give unlimited visas to every Indian with a right to bring over their whole (not insignificantly sized) family to live in Englandâs green and pleasant land?
Maybe he will âmagicâ new land - just like his âmagic money treeâ spending plans?
Oh yes, of course - if he âgets brexshit doneâ and wins the election, it will be everyone elseâs fault why he doesnât have the money he âpromisedâ any more.

Well, his new proposals for NI seem to be floating like a lead balloon
@anon88169868 directs our attention to another bitter slice of Bojob actualité:
âWell, his new proposals for NI seem to be floating like a lead balloonâ
As has been exhaustively predicted for months, the hard Brexit strategy is to secure a no-deal exit against a carefully constructed backdrop of xenophobic barrage of âGarlic Munching Surrender Monkeyâ- style jibes (PYO Euro-target), and it looks like being a soar-away success!

I do try to share âmy more moderate sideâ (really 
) but do lapse into verbosity and fuddy-duddyness when my awareness is in sleep modeâŠ
But the pressure to give way to nonconformity in the face of rank political hypocrisy is unrelenting, and I have to resist.

BoJo is using more than language, I am sure that he has a cunning plan, as he has said to the Scottish Court of Sessions that he will obey the Benn Law but we will still leave on the 31st October, despite it looking very unsure that the EU will accept his new version of the Withdrawal Bill.
I know he speaks with forked tongue, but you cannot do two opposing things at the same time and I am waiting to see just what he and his disgusting cronies are going to come up with.
Probably some under the table deal to provide/sell arms, technology, pork pies and butterflies to one, or more of the Eastern european members in exchange for a refusal of an extension.
Donât forget unicorn milk.
