Chilangos in Soho used to be real good, but they keep turning over the staff or something because every few weeks I go there and someone new stuffs half a cold lettuce into the burrito and ruins it. Also they keep trying to sell some kind of investment product?

Anyhow, at the risk of a storm of goons immediately telling me how wrong I'm doing it, I have an instructional video for making fajitas:

Mr Johnson�s allies say the prime minister is �100 per cent� focused on securing a Brexit deal at an EU summit on October 17-18 and is willing to kick out of the party any Eurosceptic hardliners who try to block it.

Mark Spencer, chief whip, has told Tory MPs that he is preparing to sack any Tory MP who refuses to back any deal Mr Johnson brings back from Brussels. �They�ll be told they won�t be able to stand in the election,� said one Johnson ally.

[...]

Asked whether he would resign rather than seek an extension to the Article 50 exit process, Mr Johnson said: �That�s not a hypothesis I will contemplate. I want to get a deal done.�

One ally of the prime minister said Mr Johnson took a tough line with 21 Tory rebels who voted for the anti-no deal bill this week because he was determined to impose equally iron discipline on Eurosceptics tempted to vote down his deal next month.

Maddy Thimont Jack of the Institute for Government said: �Johnson�s best hope now is probably to go back to trying to getting a Withdrawal Agreement signed with the EU on October 17.�

[...]

After weeks of silence, Mr Johnson is now finally offering a glimpse of his thinking about how to replace the Irish �backstop� � designed to avoid the return of a hard border in Ireland � that he wants to remove from Theresa May�s original exit deal.

He confirmed this week he was willing to leave Northern Ireland in the EU single market for �agrifood� � removing the need for plant and animal health checks at the border � if the idea had the consent of the currently suspended Stormont assembly.

The prime minister will travel to Dublin on Monday to meet Ireland�s prime minister Leo Varadkar to discuss the idea. The EU has warned that it does not go anywhere near far enough to address the question of the Irish border.

I genuinely believe that Boris thinks he'll be able to roll up to the EU summit and do his usual bluster and bad jokes and nice guy act and then all of a sudden the EU are going to give him some amazing deal, and then he'll return home borne on the back of flying unicorns and everyone will kiss his feet and his deal will pass parliament unanimously.
