"Collusion"

Well, interesting things have been happening since my last post. We now have No. 10 probing "collusion" between British politicians and foreign powers apparently, i.e. the EU/France.

I'm not too sure how the law works when it comes to things like this. Or if I would support such laws or actions myself (it's something I'm going to have to think about). However, whatever the legality we have certainly seen some very poor behaviour in this regard from remain politicians.

For a start we've had Tony Blair heading back and forth briefing the EU. Often completely behind the back of Theresa May. No doubt Boris now too. We've had Labour delegations heading over trying to negotiate alternative deals. There was the slip a few weeks back where Philip Hammond admitted receiving advice from EU lawyers.

We have seen extensive undermining of the UK position by UK politicians. Completely destroying the government's ability to negotiate. In fact, largely with the help of Speaker Bercow, we've seen executive action on the part of the British government almost made impossible.

Legal or otherwise it's pretty poor stuff.
