The UK leaves the EU at 23.00hrs [11pm] tonight.

According to BBC News online see here 

 

The British flag has been removed from its pole outside the European Parliament in Brussels and replaced with the flag of the European Union.

A clock counting down to the moment the UK leaves the EU will be projected on to Downing Street.

At 22.00 [10pm]: Boris Johnson will address the nation in a video message.

At 23.00 [11pm], Big Ben will not chime due to ongoing renovation works.

Some people see things as they are and ask "Why?"; I dream of things that never were and ask "Why not?"

Oh so true @jonsie
Boris a complete failure of a man...trouble is he's taking me down with him.
ok by me if his personal life style is shambolic, he has no dignity, lies, cheats, clowns around, whacks a mole.. if it only affects him fine.
Frighteningly Boris is out of his depth..he looks like he's been hit over the head with a paddle🤕
Or did he always look like that🤣

Aside from Cummings and PrincessNutNuts (!?), I really think the vote this week in the Commons (again) is going to go against the advice of the Upper House.

The Gov't majority will see to that for sure - because regardless of how incensed you are when you write to your MP to tell him or her to reject the Internal Market Bill, the whips on the Tory side will be harsh. An MP who goes against the whip risks losing their seat.

Here is the former Father of the House, giving his take - and he has seen a lot of these battles before he was made a Lord thus year (cannot find the YouTube bit off the Peston Show, but it is embedded in this article).

Japan for Cheese I heard?

Canada they had already, after a fashion. 

And I thought BoJo was meant to be isolating, so those pics in the papers are old ones, where Trudeau and Johnson are shaking hands.

Madagascar next, for the vanilla... 😳

Germany have other issues closer to home (subtitled):

I can think of a few places I’d rather be!

Point Roberts (the only C-19 free town in the US)

Do they have a direct airport @Anonymous?

If not, you would probably catch it enroute. Fear
