Well for anybody who thought otherwise Boris intentions are now clear.
Or maybe not. more than one fifth of the population thinks artificial intelligence (AI) could handle the post-Brexit trade negotiations better than politicians

I don't know, but I'd say that Natural Stupidity will beat Artificial Intelligence every time.

Experienced politicians are good at answering questions without actually answering them - if that makes sense & can even proceed further by answering another question not yet raised.

Yes I agree with that Dermot, you only have to watch programmes like the Andrew Marr show.

Two things that have struck me in the last few days.

One: Health Secretary spoke on BBC television morning news about the corona virus. Not sure whether I heard this right as I was making breakfast but, in reply to a question about flying, did I hear Matt H say that he would not fly? He may have been referring to climate change but I am pretty sure the discussion was about the corona virus.

Two: Having just finished watching the fascinating OU series about Cornish Fishing Life, I do hope BoJo stands firm about our waters for our fishermen. I think our fishing fraternity may be in for a rough ride as far as mainland Europe fishermen are concerned.

It may be a good idea that our Navy is not committed elsewhere due to underhand dealing and false threats.
