In
the UK, key Conservative opinion makers are now in a campaign to place all
the blame on Prime Minister Theresa May.
Uncertainty,
even confusion, and growing resentment define the current British political
climate. Like the proverbial meteorology of those Isles, the climate around
Brexit is foggy and unpleasant.
And
they are openly saying, it is May’s fault! They add then: it comes from her
lack of true enthusiasm for the exit ideals. Those Conservatives – and they are
quite influential in the mainstream right-wing media, not just in the tabloid
sheets – want to divert people’s attention from the inescapable issue, meaning,
that the UK needs to agree on an exit deal with the EU. And that inevitable deal
is the one that has been on the table since November 2018.
They
also want to present some crazies – Jacob Rees-Mogg, Boris Johnson, David Davis,
Dominic Raab, Ian Duncan Smith, among others – as true patriots, people that can take over from
Theresa May and move the UK to the centre of the world.
Really?
Well, with their Victorian way of looking at Britain and Europe, they might be
able to bring the country back to the XIX Century. And make it imperial again!
