Today is Monday.

Not the sort of fact you'd think you'd have to state for supposedly professional British journalists and politicians.

However today is Monday.

The day on which Donald Tusk declared he wants the EU to grant a Brexit extension.

When they make their decision on Tuesday or Wednesday.

I'd be fascinated to know how people have taken that to mean a Brexit extension has been granted.

And why Boris Johnson has accepted a Brexit extension. Before the EU even offered one.

I'd been even more interested to know why Boris thinks he can win an election.

On a platform of getting Brexit done.
