I hope Boris is as much a man as was Maggie Thatcher.

This article is a mess and written by someone who doesn't understand either the definition of nationhood of anything else

1. There is no such thing as British "nationhood" -- there is English, Welsh, Northern Irish and Scottish nationhood, but Britain is composed of England, Scotland and Wales. The united kingdom is composed of England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland -- there is no such thing as British nationhood and never has been

2. The voters decided to tell parliament to Brexit - it was an advisory poll. In the UK parliament is sovereign and it decides, not the people

3. "some conservative" -
3.1. Conservative means keeping the status quo - by that reckoninig Cameron wanted to keep the status quo as it was from 1973, which was to stay in the EU/EC - as Thatcher did
3.2. "Conservative" has a different meaning between the UK and the USA

4. Theresa May's first words were "Brexit means Brexit" - her flop was in calling for an election that put her in bed with the DUP - which meant that she couldn't keep NI in a customs union and take the rUK off

5. In no way has the EU "worked to make Brexit as painful as possible" - the EU put out its rules clearly - saying that you can't cherry-pick the 4 freedoms. The graph put out by the EU in 2017 clearly indicated that the UK would have a no-deal Brexit, so they put the cards on the table - oh, you wanted them to break the rules of the club to let the UK have its cake and eat it too? Not going to happen. This was the UK's fault in not preparing for the negotiations and not preparing for anything indeed

6. The EU confederation is no more a gang than the united states of America is a gang

7. The EU talked David Davis - a leading BREXITEER who was the chief negotiator into the agreement on the WA. Furthermore, the UK already concluded trade agreements for post Brexit with Fiji, Switzerland etc.

7. The UK already spent three years negotiating with others and failed

UK signs post-Brexit trade deal with Fiji and PNG

Britain has signed a post-Brexit trade deal with the Pacific islands of Fiji and Papua New Guinea, as the government rushes to sign as many agreements as possible before 29 March.

Signed by the international trade secretary, Liam Fox, the deal eliminates all tariffs on all goods imported from Fiji and Papua New Guinea and will gradually remove around 80% of tariffs on UK exports to these countries.

8. The trade deals with the USA, ANZAC will not in any way replace trade deals with the rest of Europe - the UK is too far away from ANZ except to import lamb and beef - which will be opposed by British farmers. And the UK's chief exports to the rest of Europe was services and partially completed goods (as it was part of the WE supply chain) - that can't be replaced with the US/Canada as a market as New York does the services bit and putting a supply chain across the atlantic doesn't make sense

9. The Tory party is already destroyed, no matter what - after the ensuing chaos of the past 3 years

Best article I’ve read on Brexit, ever. I also didn’t know that Boris was American-born. Nicely done.
