Чуть больше чем через месяц, 12 декабря, в Великобритании пройдут очередные внеочередные выборы в Парламент. Вчера, открывая кампанию консерваторов по выборам, британский Премьер Борис Джонсон сказал следующее:
This Parliament refuses to get Brexit done.
We have a Parliament that is paralysed, blocked, and is generally incapable of digestive function as an anaconda that has swallowed a tapir, neither of them moving one way or the other if you see what I mean.
This Parliament just refuses to get Brexit done. And that is not only bad for democracy, because we asked the people of this country whether they wanted to stay in the EU and we told them time and again that we would honour their decision, didn’t we?;
We told them that whatever they voted, leave or remain, we would put it into effect. And yet for three and a half years we have seen non-stop political manoeuvring to frustrate Brexit and thwart the will of the people.
And the result is that the whole Brexit delay is holding us all back. It is like a bendy-bus, I banned them in London, a bendy-bus jack-knifed on a yellow box junction - nobody can get round it. It’s blocking the traffic in every direction.
And the uncertainty and the delay are bad for the country.
Because people need to plan. They need to make investments. To hire new employees. To buy new homes. And we need a new election and a new Parliament because we cannot go on like this.
Это почти идеальная иллюстрация того, как политики создают новую реальность на совершенно пустом месте. С точки зрения любого здравомыслящего человека, основной тезис Джонсона «Парламент 3.5 года блокирует Брекзит, проголосуйте за консерваторов и мы наконец-то выполним давно обещанное и осуществим Брекзит» лишено какого-либо смысла и не связано с реальностью.
