The Tent, The Urine, The Rivalry Test

When Lyndon Johnson became President,
after the death JFK, he had to choose a cabinet.
He is famously quoted, well after he left office, 

"It's probably better to have him 
inside the tent pissing out
than outside the tent pissing in.".

Regarding whether FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover
was fit for the office that he would not be removed from.  

Now another Johnson is in power
in another country; he has decided
that Britain should so far removed
from the EU that it is in no position
to negotiate anything of substance,
thus letting the greater bureaucracy
of the EU take care of itself and the UK,
whilst UK pisses on it's own people
for not knowing where it is aiming.
