Breaking Manweller? Maybe.
An interesting observation, related to Manwellerism, from a ZH writer.
The UK now has leverage over the EU. For the past three years, a disunited UK government has been met by a united EU. Now, the roles will be reversed. The UK has a strong majority government – effectively first in ten years – while the EU’s division on how to approach the UK will be exposed.When a leader is GETTING SHIT DONE, he has 2/3 of the people with him. Boris hasn't actually done anything yet, but he managed to convince 2/3 of the voters to take his side. How did he convince them? By promising to serve BRITAIN instead of a bizarre combination of external crazies. Now that he has 2/3, he's free to do the right thing. Will he? Still unclear. I'd LOVE to be proved wrong. France and Germany and US are still in total stalemate, with leaders depending on a weird coalition of meaningless trivia. Merkel and Macron and Trump are unable and unwilling to solve any real problems FOR THE NATION, because solving a real problem might dislodge one pebble in the pile of junk that barely sustains their non-ruling coalitions.
