Brexit - or Article 50: the Phoenix!

[Dando]

Not necessarily, the latest opinion polls show that the public if voting again would vote to Remain.

Unless it rains

BREAKING: Amy Jackson, Jeremy Corbyn’s political secretary, has texted the 4 Labour shadow ministers who did not abstain on the second referendum amendment asking them to resign from the frontbench. They are Justin Madders, Stephanie Peacock, Emma Lewell-Buck and Yvonne Fovargue.

I wonder why he didn't get his deputy Tom Watson to ask them to resign........

If they had claimed to have migraines, they probably could have kept their jobs

Ahh ... our lovely political masters..

Surreal wasn't it?

Rolling news is normally very dull but these last 3 nights have been fascinating to watch. It has been total bedlam.

Lets see what the leaders have to say next week, the Dutch PM is completely hacked off with it all.

So its all about the money or the hope that Leavers all keel over and die. If we keep on like this, it wont be just Leavers.

The EU have the elections coming up and they know the right wing populist parties will do well in those, so they have that on their plate. They then have to reelect new people into positions which will take time, so I imagine unless we can categorically prove we can get a deal done if they give us a couple of months they will probably say it's a long term deal or nowt . They have agreed a deal twice that our PM has told them she can get to pass and she has failed, so they are not going to give another 3 months just so we can continue arguing like children and failing to pass deals over and over again.

And it will make it easy for the 'new' MEPs to rubbish the old guard and the 'old' guard to blame the 'new' - then we could be into a whole new ball game of uncertainty!!

I have to says, having watched some of the debates with absolute embarrassment that the debacle is being broadcast internationally that some of our MPs are pretty dire

 

[Foxholer]

Not sure that's possible as with 2 weeks to go I'm struggling to think of anything that is certain.

It's going to rain possibly

 

[drdel]

No - I'm it is certainly going to rain - when and where is a whole new issue: as to Brexit; the UK & EU have taken the definition of a 'debacle' to a completely new level.

I've had one Public Sector Role in my working life.... and while I met many dedicated decent folk there, I also met folk who wouldnt have got past the interview in the Private Sector!

Mind you. I take no joy in calling this right all the way through.... I could be proved wrong by May's deal going through next time, but I wont be.

No vote against the EU has ever prevailed. Think on.

Looks like we will be forking out over one hundred million pounds for MEP elections. A price it seems worth paying to further thwart democracy

Always remember that this was the 'Will of the People'

Come on then Nostradamus, how does this all end?

Brexit was the will of the people, not this debacle.

I'll bet you a crisp tenner to be donated to the charity of my or your choice (I win, I chose the charity, you donate and vice versa if you win) that TMays deal is voted through before the end of March.
