David Cameron Treats Boris Johnson to the Thrashing of His Life

|

Before an astonished House of Commons, Prime Minister David Cameron savages Mayor of London Boris Johnson over his decision to campaign for the Brexit.

DAVID CAMERON: I won’t dwell on the irony that some people who want to vote to leave apparently want to use a leave vote only to remain.

...

Sadly, Mr. Speaker, I’ve known a number of couples who have begun divorce proceedings. But I do not know of any who've begun divorce proceedings in order to renew their marriage vows.

...

BORIS JOHNSON: May I ask my right honorable friend, the Prime Minister, to explain to the House and to the country in exactly what this deal returns sovereignty over any field of lawmaking to these Houses of Parliament?

CAMERON: The deal brings back some welfare powers. It brings back some immigration powers. It brings back some bailout powers. But more than that, because it carves us forever out of ever- closer union, it means that the ratchet of the European Court taking power away from this country cannot happen in the future. We have a chance to make sure we build on what we have. We protect our people. We enhance our prosperity. And that's the choice we should make.
