Johnson is supposed to be meeting with Merkel and Macron, to try to convince them of the need to negotiate another deal minus the backstop.
It ain’t going to happen. He knows that, but he has to be seen trying. Of course some will be gullible enough to believe Johnson.
There has been talk of leaving early on twitter, but I think that it is highly likely to be just talk, as the U.K. needs much more preparation.
