johnson had become prime minister, promising to end the deadlock of brexit. he brought with him as his chief adviser dominic cummings, a mastermind of the leave campaign who believed in creative destruction. cummings and johnson worked out the only way to do brexit _ was to behave in a pretty outrageous fashion- and then to get an election which would be the people versus parliament. - they really liked driving - the remainers so mad with rage that in many cases they stopped thinking straight. _ with the slogan of get brexit done, johnson enhanced his reputation as a winner. he won the general election by a landslide, tearing down normally rock—solid labour seats in the so—called red wall of the north. the prime minister celebrated the chinese new year injanuary 2020. the year of the rat beginning with a far more deadly challenge than brexit, arriving in the form of covid—i9. prime minister, are you - concerned about the coronavirus coming — to the united kingdom? in february, the prime minister regarded this as just a scare story but don't worry abou

borisjohnson is one because of brexit. boris will always be remembered — always — as the one who got us out. that's the bit where his legacy is assured. but that won't be enough of a comfort for him 'cause he wants so much more. simon hart saw it very differently when he wrote his resignation letter. "you'll be remembered as a prime minister with energy, vision, determination and humour. "there was never a dull moment as a minister in your government, "and i will be forever grateful to have been given the chance to be part of it." i just suddenly realised, it's glaring — i said �*upmost�*, not �*utmost�*. you want your generals to be optimistic and upbeat. there's nothing worse than serving under somebody who is convinced that we're going to lose. boris always convinced, whether it was covid, ukraine, the economy or anything else, that we were always going to win — always — always going to win, and that's an infectious leadership quality. and do you think we haven't seen the last of him? yeah, i don't thi

rob: interestingly, although economists in the united states and around the world talk about brexit as a colossal mistake, really, here in british politics, it is all most like the elephant in the room. [laughs] although that is not the right description, bause the conservatives, including liz truss, continue to talk about brexit as an opportunity. the main opposition labour party here in liverpool, they talk about it as trying to make it work, but the government's own official figures suggest that brexit, to date, has cost over $100 billion in lost growth. but, amazingly, no one wants to talk about it politically, it opened up holes and divisions come up of course many businesses think it is a mistake. the financial markets continue to think it is a mistake. and of course, many of britain's allies around the world are still utterly perplexed as to why britain left the european union. laura: will be opposition labour party, they must be licking their lips. what is the first electoral test of britain's conservative government? rob: the mood at the labour party conference here is buoyant

she was tough with the eu during negotiations for brexit. she was confrontational at times with brussels. are we going to see continuity when it comes to brexit, or a change? lydia: i certainly hope we will see a change because i think everybody loses from the current situation with regards to brussels. the u.k. continues to suffer. you look at something like business investment, it has been down since the brexit referendum. it is still down and a lot of that has to do with the uncertainty, and so much of the brexit negotiations still to be worked out. we are already paying the price, plus like others have emphasized, while the u.k. may literally be an island, we are certainly not economically an island. we will see this because the eu has big problems potentially coming this winter with energy shortages, possibly blackouts, etc.. that's going to have lots of ripple effects through supply chains because our economies are so interlinked. it's going to be -- yeah, i hope to see liz truss working in a more constructive way with the european uni

the brexit referendum came four years afterwards. my personal view is that it came to the wrong decision. the fact the majority of people felt and voted that way has to be respected. and that showed a desire for a more powerful britain and a bridge and that was uncomfortable being part of europe. i am sure that will continue. romaine: i was just looking at this video with daniel craig. >> it was cool. romaine: it was very cool. it is interesting when we talk about james bond, which is basically a series that came into -- early 1960's. >> yes. about the same time as the beatles. romaine: there you go. as an american who is so wedded to that franchise, it is interesting to see how the franchise has adapted to the idea that it is not the empire it once was. i know what we see in pop culture does not necessarily -- reality, but there are parallels. not just the queen, but some of the institutions that represent british culture addressing the elephant in the room. >> yes. this is just purely a personal view, speaking as a british person,

brexit can't change that. i think brexit was the right answer to the wrong question. if you look at the political analysis of the good friday, brexit, it was a demonstration of english nationalism. if you look at the polling in 2011, the english did not want their decisions made for them as westminster. when you do a referendum, they become a catchall for all a lot of anxieties. 80% of those who voted in support of brexit said they would do so even if it meant to the destruction of the irish peace process. the question is, the uk, made up of england, scotland, wales, and northern ireland, 67 million people, 83% of whom are english. if you're in northern ireland, whether your a catholic, protestant, unionist or whatever, why would you want to be part of a country that doesn't want to be part of you? the democratic union did not support the good friday agreement. the good friday agreement, a masterful, diplomatic achievement, led by george mitchell, who spent five years in northern ireland in three different iterations. they were asking, why weren't you able to develop

the people who got brexit done, the people who delivered the fastest vaccine rollout in europe will never forget 70% of the publisher got a dose within six months, faster than any comparable country. that is government for you, that is this conservative government. [applause] people who organized those prompt, early supplies of weapons to the heroic ukrainian armed forces, an action that very may well have helped change the course of the biggest european war in 80 years. because of the speed and urgency of what you did, what everybody did involved in the government committed to get the economy moving again from july of last year, despite the opposition, the naysayers, we have and will continue to have that economic strength to give people the cash they need to get through this energy crisis that has been caused by putin's vicious war. and i know that liz truss and this compassionate conservative government will do everything we can to get people through this crisis, and this country will endure it, and we will win. and if putin thinks he can succeed by blackmailing or bullying the british

brexit�*s raised new tensions over old divides. some people want to be irish, and the like of ourselves, we're happy enough the way we are living. how it will ever end, i don't know. to break the deadlock liz truss has to solve the problems here. our agreement with the eu created barriers to goods coming overfrom britain, and northern ireland's democratic unionists say they won't go back into government until the arrangements are scrapped. so it can now take almost twice as long for goods to get to northern ireland? yes, it can. things haven't got any better. in actualfact, things have got worse. while a majority of northern ireland's politicians want to keep the eu's arrangements, unionists are urging liz truss to push ahead with controversial plans to change the rules. our message is, put that at the number one priority in your in—tray and free up the movement of goods from gb to northern ireland. and at stormont she'll have to navigate a new dynamic, because sinn fein, the hardline republicans, have now become stormont�*s la
