They are in agreement with the present direction that Boris is taking. Show me evidence of their trying to influence Boris into doing what he's doing.

Or, do you think they're trying to stop him ? I say again: WHAT 'meddling' .. ?

Compare the present status quo with the one that existed in Obama's day. We were gearing up for the Referendum vote. Obama tried to strong-arm us into voting to Remain in the EU ... by issuing a threat of adverse trading conditions, if we didn't do what HE wanted.

Trump and Bolton, of course, have done no equivalent meddling, no strong-arm stuff whatsoever. All they've done is comment ... and that commentary has been to agree with our current direction.

All of this, of course, is in line with the democratic decision our people reached, back in June 2016. A decision we had a right to make ..

... AND A DECISION WE NOW HAVE A RIGHT TO SEE IMPLEMENTED !!
Promising to do x if/when y is completed is pretty comparable to what Obama was doing, in reverse.

It's easier to 'like' meddling or whatever we call it, when it fits what we want.
