It'd be an extraordinarily disingenuous approach but has been pursued before with some success before. It'd antagonise half the country but might appeal to a fair number of the other half. Even as the country faced a crisis, one could see how 40% might support it. /5 — PolitiTweet.org

He could present himself as the doughty defender of British sovereignty, refusing to be bullied by the EU into giving them control over the UK. He'd dismiss his critics as being willing to surrender to the EU, 'taking their orders from Brussels' etc etc. /4 — PolitiTweet.org

Hard to see how the former Remainers will do anything other than blame Johnson - vindicating the view that Brexit (esp a no deal Brexit) was a bad idea. But one can see how Johnson could convince many 'Leavers' that the EU deserves the blame by being intransigent. /3 — PolitiTweet.org
David Gauke @DavidGauke
In a no deal situation there'll be plenty of disruption (it'll be bad enough with a deal) & an immediate economic hit. Brexit will become a big issue & there'll be plenty of blame to be allocated. The old Remain/Leave divide will return (even if the names will be outdated) /2 — PolitiTweet.org

Not sure anyone can be certain what the impact of Cummings' departure will have on the Brexit negotiations. Removes a hardliner from No 10 but also leaves him free to cry 'betrayal' if the PM compromises. Worth asking, what'll be the PM's message if he hasn't got a deal? /1 — PolitiTweet.org

One implication of the move away from petrol and diesel cars is that, over time, revenue from fuel duties will decline & eventually disappear. They currently bring in £28bn. Government should be thinking now how to replace that. Road pricing? https://t.co/F1KIL1PxmW — PolitiTweet.org

This would be welcome but very hard to do this and pursue a no deal Brexit. In those circumstances the Government would need an aggressive, combative tone to try to shift the blame onto the EU (and, somehow, Remainers) and try to hold together the Leave coalition. — PolitiTweet.org

As Laura’s next tweet makes clear, Cummings’ January blog didn’t really imply he’d be off by the end of 2020. Then again, maybe it’s been updated to say that he would? — PolitiTweet.org
