He is doing what Parliament require of him. He is also doing what he has said and that is to try and get Britain out by 31 October. You still haven't explained why that is nasty. Perhaps you'd care to explain what is nasty about that. I get that you don't like him, I get that you are a remainer, what I don't get is why you label him nasty for expressing his opinion ( as any PM would do). I can only surmise it's because you don't like the fact he is trying to deliver what was voted for by the people of Britain.

He is going to break the law, which means that parliament will have to find the Government to have broken the law.

Tell me, how will he be breaking the law if he sends the letter as directed by parliament? Are you saying he cannot send another expressing his opinion? I have no clue as to the legality of that.

I thought you were asking where did the reference "Nasty" came from in reference to Boris and Tories in general.

Fat finger syndrome again.... canx the like. Surely he is doing the exact opposite of what Parliament has asked him to do, otherwise why the 2 letters?

Why is he doing the opposite? He is required to send the letter, which I am assuming he will do. He is also expressing his opinion. Are you saying he shouldn't tell the EU what he wants?

No, he shouldn't tell the EU what he wants. He's a representative.
Are MP's there to express their own views or the views of the people they represent or even the views of parliament?
Whichever carries the most weight the people or the MP's but bearing in mind the mp's and not the people make the laws whether you like them or not.

So you're saying he should go to the EU and see what they offer? He should sit there and not express an opinion?

It's not for the EU to make any offer.
It's his job (for which he's very well paid) to make an offer to the EU based on the instruction from parliament. It's called democracy.

And what has Parliament asked him to make an offer of?

Parliament hasn't asked him to do anything. They have instructed him to ask, and I think you very well know what.
