So:
Johnson wants UK businesses to prepare for Brexit by following govt advice
But the advice will be shaped by trade deal we don't yet have

Assume the best case scenario:
1 US election is decided on 3rd Nov
2 Johnson signs a trade deal on 4th

Then businesses will have 31 working days to prepare for Brexit. And will be shut.

The govt has so little control it can't decide anything until America does.

We've failed to get test and trace working in the SIX MONTHS since the first wave.
And we expect closed businesses within zero income to prepare for a Brexit we still haven't defined

I'm sure there have been moments when the UK has been governed worse than this, but they don't spring to mind. And they definitely didn't happen in the middle of multiple national and global crises.
We are fucked.
Fucked is us.
