Time is running out — and it isn’t on their side. Either Remainers accept Mrs May's dodgy deal by March 29 - highly unlikely - or we’re OUT. As Commons Leader Andrea Leadsom explains, MPs cannot block Brexit.

Scaremongering over slaughtered lambs, a Mars bar famine, a medicine meltdown and food shortages is a grotesquely exaggerated sham...

TREVOR KAVANAGH Theresa May’s flying high this Christmas as Jeremy Corbyn remains a pathetic non-entity


The PM has pencilled in another year’s lease on No10 and could even survive until the next election — perhaps within that same year

HAVING been burned by Theresa May’s stubborn refusal to step down, there will be no more crystal ball gazing from me this year.

Not only has Mrs May made me look foolish by clinging to her job, she seems to have defied gravity and learned how to fly.

The PM has pencilled in another year’s lease on No10 and could even survive until the next Election — perhaps within that same year.

This might not be good news to those who, like me, believe she has made a dog’s Brexit of EU negotiations, but it would be unchristian on Christmas Eve to ignore Mrs May’s transformation.

She seems almost to have shrugged off the crushing burden of responsibility and begun to enjoy herself. Voters have noticed. At various pre-Christmas gatherings, I have been struck by expressions of warmth for Mrs May personally, even among hardened Brexiteers.


So, in the spirit of Christmas, let’s put differences aside and raise a glass to the PM’s health and happiness.

She has benefited from the ghastliness of her enemies — the thuggish European Commision, drunken groper Jean Claude Juncker, biased Speaker of the House of Commons John Bercow and snide Jeremy Corbyn. Their mean-spirited sneers have stirred a passion for the underdog among fair-minded Brits — surprisingly, more among men than women.

It is refreshing to see bellowing toad Bercow, a toxic stain on the centuries-old tradition of Speaker impartiality, finally at bay over allegations of abuse of his high office. Bercow’s blatant contempt for Parliament coincides with Corbyn’s disintegration and Labour’s irrelevance.

Only last week Corbyn was held up as the scary monster who would eat us alive if given the chance. Today he stands shredded for all to see, as a pathetic non-entity who somehow became Leader of HM Opposition.

Corbyn feebly denies live TV evidence of him branding Theresa May a “stupid woman”. He is entitled to his opinion but it is demeaning to lie about it. No wonder two of his closest MPs, Fiona Onasanya and Kate Osamor, have also been caught lying through their teeth. And they are just the ones brought to the attention of police.

Suddenly, far from Corbyn sweeping to power as Britain’s first Marxist PM, polls suggest he would be thrashed in a snap Election, with the Tories regaining their outright majority. But perhaps not under this leader.

Which brings me to another reason to be cheerful. Boris Johnson has been cleared of trumped-up charges of Islamophobia levelled by Tory chairman Brandon Lewis, spurred on by Mrs May herself.

In an article supporting the right of Muslim women to wear what they like, Boris warned hijabs made them look like bank robbers or “letter boxes”.

As with much of the ridicule hurled at Boris since Brexit, this was calculated to undermine his chances of winning any future leadership battle. But the really good news this festive season is the panic beginning to grip those who want to reverse the 2016 referendum and keep Britain in the EU at any cost.

Project Fear has become Project Farce. Fanatical Remoaners, not Brexiteeers, can be seen as the real swivel-eyed loonies.

Far from being frightened off, foreign firms are pouring cash into UKplc. Savvy tech giants Apple, Google and Amazon have bet billions on post-Brexit Britain. More firms are setting up HQs in London than any other EU capital and Britain has been voted the best country in the world to do business.

We have just marked the wintry Shortest Day, a symbolic turning point, with the best jobs record in jobless Europe while the Eurozone faces an economic disaster. We are a long way short of high summer.

But every day from now until the end of daylight- saving in March, things should get brighter and brighter. Have a wonderful Christmas and a terrific New Year.
