Brexit: Johnson's coup tears the British

"Stop the coup", "stop the coup" chants a few dozen protesters in the street of the ministries. Many wear starry blue, beret, flag or cape, to show their attachment to Europe. "There's no coup", "there is no coup" replicate other activists, banner Brexit party deployed before them. The finding seems clear: by deciding to suspend Parliament for five weeks, shortly before the official date of Brexit, on October 31, Boris Johnson has further divided the country.

"When I heard that, I was not angry, I was incandescent," Wendy Nowak, a member of the Liberal Democratic Party, said. "For me it increases the risk of a Brexit without agreement and this is my life that I play. The retiree is indeed diabetic, and if a brutal divorce with the European Union occurs, she may no longer have access to essential medicines for her survival. Jonny Gale made 150 km to come, because the stake according to him exceeds his own existence: "The Parliament is the most important institution of the country. If we close it, we have no rule, nothing. Besides, I see some Brexit partisans coming to parade with us, because they too are revolting against this democratic scandal. "

"We do not have democracy anymore"

Alexa, a London woman in her fifties with small metallic glasses, nods. "It's a manipulation of the procedure. Boris Johnson uses gray areas of our Constitution. We no longer have democracy, we are going towards dictatorship, unless parliamentarians can do something. His sign prompted them: "Defend Democracy" pound the letters printed in bold on the sign. Except that the members who want to avoid an exit without agreement of the EU will have only a few days, even a few hours, to counter-attack from the return to parliament next Tuesday.

Labor Leader Jeremy Corbyn pledges to work with all parties to legislate against the dry break – and its cascades of catastrophic consequences for the country's economy and supply. "These are just Remaniacs, maniacs who absolutely want to stay in the EU," laughs James Taylor, a London entrepreneur en route to the pub.

He calls Jonny Gale. "You say that Boris Johnson tramples the constitution, but the queen is not political, and she validated the suspension of Parliament! The two men argue unconvincingly. For James, the procedure launched by the Prime Minister is only a normal measure, not enough to make the headlines. At his side, Brian Stovell, Brexit party, recognizes him a tactical maneuver of the head of government. "But he is right to close Parliament! Because the deputies oppose the will of the people! The entrepreneur remains dubious but smiles. "In any case, on October 31, we will leave Europe and I will drink good French and Italian wine to celebrate Brexit! "
