I wouldn't trust Mr Johnson to successfully pursue a policy of exiting a paper bag. The sooner he is removed from power, the better. Unfortunately, as I've pointed out before, while Treeza May's 2017 election was obviously botched to the back of beyond, it did give the Tories two more years, slender non-majority or not. It is so very hard to get rid of a British government that Johnson might well hang on until 2022. I can't quite believe that, but it's not quite as inconceivable as pigs flying. We'll see if Parliament can do anything about him if indeed the prospect of 'no deal' (which is obviously a nonsensical concept, for the usual too-tedious-to-reiterate reasons) looms close enough. At any rate, he is obviously positioning himself so that he can't be saddled with the blame for not delivering 'Brexit'.

Thank you, all valid points, especially regarding Brexit fatigue. It's also true that protests have to be timed right to have an impact. I am just concerned that if everyone was to wait until September or October, it might be too late. It doesn't look like Boris is looking to enter negotiations in good faith and he is running down the clock instead. Public support would probably also strengthen the resolve of Tory rebels and opposition to prevent No Deal.
