Boris Johnson says he would 'rather be dead in a ditch' than delay Brexit

.

British Prime Minister Boris Johnson promised on Thursday he would never delay Britain’s exit from the European Union, due on October 31, saying he would rather be “dead in a ditch” than do so.

Asked if he could promise the British public that he would not go to Brussels and ask for another delay to Brexit, Johnson said: “Yes I can. I’d rather be dead in a ditch.”

“It achieves absolutely nothing. What on earth is the point of further delay,” he added, speaking at a police training centre in northern England.

In other words, Putin said he'll be dead in a ditch if Brexit is delayed.
