There it is: Boris Johnson is the new Prime Minister of the United Kingston (per Ivanka Trump).
Can Johnson pull a rabbit out of the hat and deliver an orderly Brexit by Oct. 31?
Writes Roger Cohen in an opinion piece in the New York Times:
Johnson has played with his country, treating it like one of his many dalliances, with a sloppiness and fecklessness no wit or charm can excuse. He backed a British exit from the European Union on a whim — in the expectation it would be rejected — and has since become a pawn of the Brexit ultras, the crazed little-England monomaniacs who have now delivered him to 10 Downing Street.
