No-Deal Brexit: Brexit and Johnson

no-deal brexit: Johnson has dramatically boosted public spending since taking office, fueling speculation he is preparing not only for Brexit, but a general election as well, according to The Japan Times. The two are likely to be linked. Many MPs are deeply opposed to his threat to take Britain out of the European Union without a deal on October 31. ; There is speculation that Johnson could call an early election to strengthen his mandate for a no-deal Brexit. On Monday, Johnson traveled to Lincolnshire, eastern England, to lay out details of his 1.8 billion 2.2 billion boost for the National Health Service, delivering on his 2016 Brexit campaign vow while maintaining a focus on domestic policies. It's part of what the government calls economic boosterism as it prepares for Brexit on Halloween; it includes a cash injection of 2.1 billion to prepare the economy for a no-deal split from the EU. But despite Johnson's public words to the contrary, politicians are increasingly taking the rapid domestic policy roll-out as proof he's gearing up for a snap poll. It follows recent pledges to hire more policy officers and increase infrastructure spending, including on railways. (news.financializer.com). As reported in the news.
