‘Britain’s former ambassador to the European Union Ivan Rogers has predicted that Britain will leave the post-Brexit transition at the end of this year with no deal, describing Boris Johnson as a Trumpite politician who wants the EU to fail.
“Johnson
and his team persuaded themselves that the EU would be so panicked that
they would give in eventually. And it didn’t happen. Boris didn’t, I
believe, start off as a true no dealer, but he seems now formally in the
camp with Dominic Cummings: ‘to hell with it, we should walk away’,” Sir Ivan told The Irish Times.
“He
is quite Trumpite in method; he was always fascinated by Trump and his
strategy to take the other side by surprise and destabilise it.”
