As far as Johnson is concerned, he wants Brexit, but he doesn't want any old Brexit. The only way Johnson can do that is by differentiating between the trade regime for Northern Ireland and for the rest of the UK. The new elements are Nigel Farage's Brexit Party standing for an even cleaner and harder Brexit than Johnson's. There are also the Liberal Democrats, who have repositioned themselves under new leader Jo Swinson as a remain party - not a referendum party, but an out and out remain party. Many pundits seem to think Johnson is a shoo-in for a majority and will therefore get his Brexit.
