I've Been Following Britain's Brexit

Here's the conclusion I've reached.They're In.
They're out.
They're back in again.. oh wait a minute
They're back out.
Maybe there will be another vote.
No there won't.
They'll leave the European Union with a deal in place.
Well maybe there won't.
Will Brexit be postponed again?
No
Well maybe
Never mind. Their not certain of anything.
One big advantage the U'K has is if they don't like what one prime minister is doing they simply get rid of them and appoint a new one. No need for impeachment. Course on the other hand it's hard to keep up with who's leading the country from one week to the next. Sometimes the Queen has to approve things. Sometimes she doesn't. Kind of makes one wonder how England managed to survive this chaos over centuries.

But through out it all...
Here's who I'll miss the most (John Bercow).
He was the speaker of the House Of Commons.
He's been replaced by SIR Lindsay Hoyle.




Face it C-Span's coverage of the U.S. House is boring as hell. It wouldn't be nearly so if our own congress was as rowdy as England's. Bet it would get much better larger ratings if this crew were carrying on the business of the people under the dome.



I can only imagine what conservatives would think of Bercow being in charge rather then Pelosi. I also wonder how smoothly things would go if instead of impeachment congress was empowered to replace Trump midterm. England removed Theresa May and replaced her with Boris Johnson. Now there's talk of 'snap elections' to replace Boris who only assumed office on July 24, 2019. Throughout it's history England had 83 prime ministers come and go. Some lasted as little as two years. Yet England manages to go on. So too would United States although you'd never know it with the way Republicans are carrying on.
