Just about a month ago for many Boris Johnson was a loser of epic proportions, stuck in the corner with no way out, trying to bury Britain and himself in a ditch. At least that was an interpretation. After the defeat in the Supreme Court, opposition had upper hand, to remove him, install its own government and set a roadmap for Brexit. But this didn’t happened.

In my post a couple of weeks ago I wrote that Boris is here to stay for Conservatives, simply because the Tory party has no better looking leadership for the need of their electorate. Tory electorate wants Brexit and no customs union. Plain and simple. 

Plain and simple for Boris, but heck, not for Jeremy Corbyn! The unelectable nightmare pervade opposition in UK with their plan for Brexit. 

EU should simply say NO to Jeremy Corbyn. You have Boris’ deal, or you have no deal! Why? If you read the plan of Labour how to sort Brexit and have any tangible common sense in your head, you will start feeling unpleasant movements in your stomach. The Labour plan is simple and stupid: winning General Election (!), negotiate new deal with EU in which UK will stay in the customs union, put that deal in referendum together with remain option, and campaign for remain. 

No option for over 40% of the voters who don’t want UK staying in the customs union! No option whatsoever.  And when you leave people without an option, rebellion is the only way to express dissatisfaction. EU should take no part in this.

This is not just a nightmare for UK, but a wandering Tomahawk rocket with no aim for EU as well! What Labour is proposing is not a confirmatory referendum (something I argue should happen), but a cynical joke, slap in the face for almost (if not even over) 50% of the voters. Confirmatory referendum must have No-deal as an option as well, otherwise it’s not a confirmatory referendum at all. It’s Labour’s cherry picking: this is what we prefer more, and this is what we prefer a little bit less.

Boris was here to stay for the Tory party, but it’s becoming increasingly luckily he will stay PM as well, because Labour erased basic sanity and replace it with insanity, putting in danger 300 years of stability in question with its cynical proposal, erasing the option for about half of the population in UK, just because they think it’s harmful for the country.  

In order to overcome this crisis and avoid major instability, I would suggest next scenario for friends in UK, how real confirmatory referendum should look like in order to satisfy every side. It’s a little bit complicated but it leaves no doubts. 

The real confirmatory referendum

Confirmatory referendum should have three ballot boxes with three possible considerations:

First consideration: Leave or Remain. If Remain win, it cancel further consideration, but if Leave win the second round of consideration will follow;

Second consideration: Leave With A Deal or Leave Without A Deal. If Leave Without A Deal win, it cancel further consideration, but if Leave With A Deal win, the third and final round of consideration will follow;

Third consideration: Leave with Boris’ Deal or with Corbyn’s Deal (something Corbyn should negotiate with EU, if opposition win, of course).

In my opinion, this is scenario opposition in UK should adopt, because it gives the equal chance for every major scenario to win: Remain, Soft Brexit, Brexit in which UK would leave customs union, but with a deal (Boris’ deal), and finally, hard, No-deal Brexit. That would be a real confirmatory referendum. 

Labour showed it’s unelectable, the only hope for Remain and confirmatory referendum are Lib Dems. Will they proposed the real confirmatory referendum, or another joke, we will see. If not, then Remain option is doomed, and doomed for good.
