We are in a situation where we are dependent on Boris Johnson. And, specifically, on what Boris Johnson decides are in his personal best interests. We are depending on him having the common sense to see that the public in a general election would freak out if he let the time run out on Article 50 in October.
That we're dependent on the whims of Boris Johnson doesn't speak volumes for the success of Labour strategy. It's entirely likely that every other strategy would also have got us here, but it's hardly something to trumpet as a triumph.
That we're dependent on Boris Johnson having common sense in order to avoid a hard Brexit is, frankly, fucking terrifying.
