Vernon Bogdanor in his article in the Guardian ‘Parliament has failed on Brexit long before prorogation’ hit the nail on the head when he concluded that parliament has not been the solution to the problem but the problem, and quoted Winston Churchill to illustrate the point brilliantly:
Looking at the sorry performance of the House of Commons elected in 2017, it is difficult to avoid remembering Winston Churchill’s condemnation of the parliaments of the 1930s as being ‘decided only to be undecided, resolved to be irresolute, adamant for drift, solid for fluidity, all-powerful to be impotent’. Parliament has shown itself not to be the solution to Brexit but the problem.
Never in the history of famous quotes by Churchill have his words been more apt!
