Keeping the bromancer dream alive ...


It will be recalled by faithful devotees of the reptiles that the bromancer was a keen Brexiteer … and just as the British soccer team left ashes in the mouth this day, so the bromancer is now filled with despair …

Naturally the bromancer is a Boris man, never no mind that Boris shamelessly lied in the Brexit campaign, though this isn't that surprising because he was a shameless liar before it, and a famously shameless liar after it …


Naturally shameless populist lying and distortion of reality has an enormous appeal for the reptiles ...


Actually May was a reluctant remainer at the very beginning, but reaped the wind of the David Cameron goose, and then became an inspiration to all …


More Rowson and Bell here

It says more than the pond needs to know that the bromancer likes to analyse things in terms of Big Beasts and not very Big Beasts  …

Policy analysis by way of Sendak …


It's what keeps the pond hooked on the stuff ...


And there you have it, a perfect example of Brexit delusion, coulda, woulda, shoulda, showing that the bromancer is an expert at imbibing and then excreting the kool-aid …

Well there's just a few pars to go, as here we are again …


What next indeed, for this "magnificent statement of independence" ...


Well, it will get even better in the next few days … at least if Bell has anything to do with it …

    But, butt DP, of course the Bromancer admires a liar, he is such a one himself. Though not on the grand "You just tell them and they believe you" level of a true Trump or Goebbels, just on a Wingnut Welfare level. After all, who but the Murdoch press and the (Jon Faine) ABC would employ the Bromancer ? Or any of them, for that matter.

    Psst. Have I ever mentioned that those with no memory have no shame ?

    Bromo: "Johnson is a global celebrity, an exceptionally talented wordsmith and media performer."

    You see, DP, the Bromancer - in concert with the entire herpetarium - just hasn't caught on to the fundamental rule of propaganda: "the bigger the lie, the more readily it is believed". Saying anything at all about Boris is really, as determined by its subject, just very small.

  2. Hi Dorothy,

    The Bromancer and his beloved Brexiteers are as ever delusional as to the scope of the task in renegotiating over forty years of trade agreements, border controls, fishing rights and a plethora of other issues.

    As for the British civil service that Sheridan so lauds, it was pared to the bone by the very Tories who would now look to it for salvation.

    As for BoJo’s fear that Britain would be reduced to a “colony”, spare a thought for a real British Colony that will most likely get thrown under the bus in the fall out of a “hard Brexit”.

    The Rock of Gibraltar has been a British possession since being captured by the British Fleet in 1704. Since then it has been successfully defended numerous times against the Spanish, the French and the Germans.

    However negotiating a free trade and freedom of movement for the residents of the Rock (which voted 96% to Remain) has barely been given any consideration by such patriotic Englishmen such as Johnson or Rees-Mogg.

    1. I rather liked Martin Kettle's Guardian article, DW: "Boris Johnson’s Brexit was never a dream. It was pure fantasy"

      https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2018/jul/11/boris-johnson-brexit-dream-fantasy-leavers

      Though I reckon calling it Boris Johnson's 'fantasy' is a bit ripe, it was really Nigel Farage's main grift.
