From memory, it was an interviewer who put "do or die" to Johnson to test how committed he was to the October 31 date.

Johnson repeated the phrase back to assure him he was serious.

The "die" I think refers to the Conservative Party.

Isn't it a line from some piece of poetry about the Crimean War?

How apt it should come from a poem dedicated to a cavalry charge doomed to disaster:

"Forward, the Light Brigade!"

Was there a man dismay’d?

Not tho’ the soldier knew

Some one had blunder’d:

Theirs not to make reply,

Theirs not to reason why,

Theirs but to do and die:

Into the valley of Death

Rode the six hundred.

Yes, we will see what will happen on that day, if they stay or go.

"I see and yes, good to know where the saying comes from."

Yes, Britain tends to immortalise its military disasters rather than its military successes.

I assumed he is talking in terms of the Tory party.

Do Brexit or the party dies.

I have no idea what the average Conservative voter thinks about that sentiment.

You're suggesting that Boris was talking about various wars when he said Brexit - do or die?

The "war" won't be with the EU - it will be with his own party.
