Boris Johnson sees himself as a modern-day version of his hero Sir Winston Churchill.
The bungling Prime Minister believes he is the man for our country’s hour of need, the figure to steer a worried, anxious, troubled nation through its Darkest Hour.
But as he faces his own D-Day on October 31, nothing could be further from the truth. Remainers say the impacts of a no-deal Brexit would have “wartime” implications.
While there would be no bombs falling, families racing for air raid shelters or evacuations to the countryside, there would obviously be big consequences for life as we know it.
Yet where Churchill was able to forge international alliances for the good of the country, Johnson is hellbent on tearing us from the world’s biggest trading bloc in the most destructive way possible.
Churchill was a respected statesman on the global stage. Boris offends our allies.

Mother’s grief
The heartbreaking tribute from hero PC Andrew Harper’s mum reveals a mourning mother’s grief for her son.
The pain she suffers at his death is evident from her moving words of how she feels his “presence comforting me in my darkest hours”.
The bereaved finding solace among the memories of those they loved is a cloak to shield their sorrow.
Yet the tragedy also underlines the erosion of respect for our 999 services: Firefighters pelted with stones as they tackle blazes. Paramedics assaulted by drunks outside late-night pubs. And constables killed on duty.
Our country needs to rediscover its regard and reverence for those who keep us safe.
It is a shame the Tories axed 21,000 cops after returning to power in 2010.
