Sajid Javid: The UK can pay £millions for the post-Brexit border arrangements between NI and RoI to ensure no ‘hard border’ and smooth transitional arrangements.
Maggoty-apple Gove: Is already talking the weasel-words of capitulation, offering no promises to get us out of the EU ever!
The most believable of these sentiments come from Gove and Javid. The border bribe sounds plausible and workable (you can buy anything if you’re prepared to pay). The Maggoty-apple’s words are exactly what I would expect from him – prevarication, pessimism, procrastination and a willingness to do nothing-at-all.
I don't want any of them.
They are all very flawed politicians imho.
Boris is a liar.
McVey has no empathy.
Javid is trying to appear hard right'ish.
Gove is another liar.
