Given how strongly the English feel I’m surprised they are so keen to “prop up” Scotland and Northern Ireland.
The EU is not part of the UK, jfman.

Maybe so, but not because the EU denied him the ability to get the revised agreement. That was Parliament's doing.

He suspended the Bill because Parliament was not prepared to agree a timetable that enabled us to leave on 31 October.

The Bill contains much of what has already been scrutinised to death. The changes he has made do not require scrutiny of more than a few days. As usual, Parliament tries to draw everything out for as long as it can get away with.

I am sure the electorate will respond appropriately when finally given its voice and Boris will romp home. And the nightmare will finally end.
