Current Affairs EU In or Out

Was the country even in that much of a mess in the first place to justify going through all of this? It feels like we've gone so far down the rabbit hole that we're buggered either way.

It was all to unite the Tory party and to be fair that’s gone well.

Peter Bone once coined Theresa May as the "Brexit Queen"! Reckon that might be a little different.

Nice that. Jeopardise the stability and future of the whole country to serve their own selfish interests.

There's a four letter word begining with 'C' I'd like to use to describe them, but I'd get a ban.

May is playing a blinder here, making her party think she is for brexit while ensuring we remain. It's a masterstroke.

She really isn’t - she is just rubbish.

I was working in part in Europe at the time of the vote, and given how the idea of a Tory government having more power frightened me it was very simple for me to vote remain. As a result I didn't follow the campaigns particularly, though leave always seemed more prominent and far nastier. But as an aside I can't think of a single public figure political or otherwise, that I would respect and put weight to their words that wanted brexit.

I was in Paris the day after the referendum and French people I spoke to couldn’t believe that ‘sensible, calm’ Britain had voted to leave ‘on the back of no real plan for your future’ - there wasn’t even a hint of them thinking glad to see you go or anything like that.

Certainly a stiff warning

Ditto from all the Europeans I've spoken to. The consensus has been a rather bewildered "what on earth are you doing?"

That's all we all want to hear. She's too far gone though now to admit she's wrong. I don't know where we go from here with Brexit with a Tory leadership contest now extremely likely and maybe a 50/50 chance of a GE. Surely extension of article 50 is the only way forward for the foreseeable.

If she had any nerve at all she’d come out and say it’s this or she will rescind Article 50, which would wind the necks back in of the ERG, the DUP and the Hoeys of this world and is the only way Brexit could ever have a chance of passing the Commons.

Put me on that list as well , bewilderment is the exact word I’d use .

The scene is set for @peteblue , @Old Blue 2 and @joey blue to ride in and rescue Brexit from the pits of doom.

This has been her problem all along. She is taking some really tough hits at the moment in the commons, but she keeps bouncing back. One the one hand it is an admirable performance, but I fear she is personally delivering the letters to the Chairman of the 1922 committee......

They should have got rid of her after there will be no GE then had one losing her majority the costly in money depended on the DUP......
This is a botched deal 540 pages of guff it's EU driven - heard on LBC that in yesterday's cabinet meeting a civil servant shouting down a cabinet minister they are there to advise and serve their employment....
This as been the problem remain civil servants led by a remainer in May ....
Don't forget this deal is detested by Remain and Brexit MPs so it's a big worry the fact the cost alone will spiral upwards towards the EU!

It's not over yet Bruce May has been your saviour get a Brexit leader in and threatens to take the 50 billion off the table the EU will see it totally different then.......

To be fair, I think Farage wanted to have a poster with a load of frogs falling from the sky but thought it wasn't racist enough.
