His final 18 19 decision will be driven by which outcome does him more harm politically within 20 21 22 his own party, and that is a question of appearances. 23 24 As the grown-ups in the room, the EU’s diplomats should now be devising a way for 25 26 27 28 29 Johnson to disguise his defeat, but there 30 31 32 is little sign that this is happening. Their contempt for Johnson’s tactics may mean 33 34 35 36 37 38 that they fail to throw him a lifeline — and Johnson, who is famous for dithering, may 39 40 delay so long that time runs out. Time is tight, and there are many 41 42 43 competing demands on every government’s 44 attention. Almost every country in Europe faces surging Covid-19 infections, and the 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 UK government is already distracted by a growing revolt against its incompetent 55 56 57 handling of the pandemic. The UK-EU trade talks will continue, with time-outs for bad 58 59 60 behaviour, but they may not make it under 61 62 the wire. The end-December deadline is real. If there 63 64 65 66 is no agreed trade deal by New Year’s Eve, the immense daily flow of food, medicines, 67 just-in-time manufacturing components 68 69 70 71 72 and other goods across the EU-UK borders will judder to a halt as customs barriers go 73 74 75 up, and it will be a very grim winter in the United Kingdom. 76 77 78 79 80 Johnson’s political survival strategy then would be to demonise the EU as treacherous 81 82 83 and anti-British, poisoning the well for any 84 85 86 future co-operation. The grown-ups really need to get their act together, because 87 Johnson isn’t going to.
