Boris Johnson loses key Parliament expert just as his fight to deliver Brexit by October 31 approaches

BORIS Johnson is losing his key expert on Parliament just as his titanic struggle over Brexit with MPs comes to a head.

In a blow to the PM, his Director of Legislative Affairs Nikki da Costa is heavily pregnant and just about to go on maternity leave.

Boris will be without his Parliament expert just as he makes a last desperate attempt to try to enforce Britain’s exit from the EU on October 31 — without or without a deal.

The expert strategist on Commons procedures will have left No10 in “a few days”, a Downing Street source has revealed.

The departure means Boris will be without her just as he makes a last desperate attempt to try to enforce Britain’s exit from the EU on October 31, without or without a deal.

Rebel Tory MPs plan to again ally with Labour and other opposition parties for a showdown vote to insist on at least a three month delay on October 19.

An old Downing Street hand, Ms da Costa also worked for Theresa May in No10 in the same role.

But she was one of two senior advisers blamed for the prorogation disaster last month, when the PM’s advice to the Queen to suspend Parliament for five weeks was deemed an unlawful by the Supreme Court.

A Downing Street source said: “Nikki is very well organised, which means she has meticulous plans already in place for her replacement”.

While many British families struggle to make ends meet, the political elite thinks that people will be glad to fund a failing business that is being run into the ground because of their failed policies on how the NHS is managed? No. This just shows that we have monkeys running our country! Many people on Facebook have shared the above post on various pages; a large number of those people don't even do politics.

Billionaire globalist and altogether controversial figure, George Soros, is now the subject of a $10 billion lawsuit accusing him of being a “racketeer billionaire” for meddling in the affairs of a sovereign African nation — purely for personal reasons — in what critics say typifies his modus operandi. See what others are saying about Soros and who he is in the comments section below. FOX News reports the 86-year-old financier and manager of a global network of nonprofits will be forced by BSG Resources’ lawsuit to answer for manipulating the politics and economics of Guinea for his own benefit Despite Soros’ often contentious dealings and reputation as a pompous busybody, the filing in New York Federal Court has thus far largely escaped the spotlight.
