There has been an attempt, most serieux, to steal the result of the Brexit referendum from under ze noses of the British people. That is an outrageous suggestion, Poirot.

As you know perfectly well, a so- called ‘soft’ Brexit means no Brexit at all. We are only trying to save the poor, deluded fools from themselves. They didn’t know what they were voting for. They bought the fake news peddled by the Right- wing Press.

Unlike the fake news peddled by Project Fear, the BBC and the Financial Times, n’est- ce pas? Ze editor of the FT got the French Legion d’Honneur for services to Europe, did he not? Pink ’Un by name, pinko by nature. Now look here, Poirot, you’re Belgian, for heaven’s sake. Whose side are you on? Poirot, he is on the side of truth and justice, a concept which seemingly is lost on Remoaniers like you, Monsieur Blair.

Steady on, Poirot. Everybody knows I’m a straight kinda guy. Then I suggest you get yourself a good lawyer, Monsieur Blair. And I don’t mean votre femme, la Witch Wicked. As straight as a corkscrew, Monsieur Dossier Dodgy. And in case you have forgotten, Poirot still intends to get to the bottom of the death of Dr Kelly.

We’ve just heard that the line is blocked at Calais. Apparently, a few thousand of those migrant chappies are trying to cross the Channel before Britain pulls up the old drawbridge. The British people didn’t know what they were voting for in the EU referendum.

They bought the fake news peddled by the Right- wing Press, exclaims Nick Clegg in Murder on the Brexit Express. I knew there would be an attempt diabolique to derail the Brexit Express. Zis is your fault, Frau Merkin.‘Ow iz it mein fault, Poirot? You left the back door wide open and invited into our safe European home millions of undesirables Arabistes and jihadists Islamique.

I’ve been on a hiking holiday in the Swiss Alps and I was determined not to miss the last train out of Brussels. Brexit means Brexit, deal or no deal. I’m not even discussing a deal unless you write a cheque for 1. European Central Bank, Frankfurt. That’s blackmail. Can’t you arrest her, Poirot? Un moment, Madame May.

But first, you, too, still have some questions to answer. Oh, very well. But I warn you Poirot, I can be a bloody difficult woman.

I’m not even discussing a deal unless you write a cheque for 1. European Central Bank, Frankfurt, says Angela Merkel in Murder on the Brexit Express.

You say that Brexit means Brexit, but where were you in the six months leading up to the referendum? Hiding behind the chaise- longue, n’est- ce pas?

If Poirot is not mistaken, you were for Remain. That was before I saw the chance to become Prime Minister. How do we know that you’re not part of the conspiracy to stop Britain leaving the EU? Oh, for heaven’s sake, Poirot. I’ve called a General Election to strengthen my negotiating hand.

You should be investigating Drunker and his chums for trying to influence the election. Pardon, Madame. Their clumsy attempts to interfere will only make a Tory victory more likely. You know full well ze British people don’t like being held to ransom, especially by foreigners.

And your point is? I submit, Mrs May, that you have asked your friends Frau Merkin and Monsieur Drunker to threaten Britain most dastardly because it plays into your hands. Why on earth would I do that?

Well, the good news is that they’ve cleared away the migrants at Calais. Excellente. The bad news is that someone has driven a sort of shepherd’s hut packed with explosives into the Channel Tunnel and is threatening to blow it up unless there’s a second referendum on Brexit.

I knew it, zey are all in it together and think they can get away with murder. Inspector Japp, arrest them all!
