@roydo thoughts?

On what?

It doesn't, and isn't. This was an attempt by TIG, with their usual levels of political skill, to make a headline.

That it would never have passed, or that if it had passed it would have stopped the indicative votes later, never entered their tiny minds.

Just shows how smooth operator Corbyn is as a Parliamentarian. Slowly slowly catchy monkey.

On what?

The state of play

 

[ToffeeTim]

That was very close. Would have thrown a huge spanner in the works.

The state of play

Its a cocking mess mate.

The state of play

Extension for now. May deal is back on. Soft wobbly Brexit.

I think that labour might regret not voting for the referendum amendment. Sometimes you've got to take your chance when the moment arises. There's a chance that May could get her deal through at the last minute and then the long game looks a bit daft. Not a massive one imo but you never know these days.

 

[ToffeeTim]

Parliament has now voted down literally everything lol

 

[Ruairi77]

no second referendum, no Mays deal, no hard brexit
Extend article 50,
get the DUP out of power with a GE
Backstop for NI only.
Pass the WA and negotiate a reasonable trade deal.

 

[Frang]

Voted down.. Again

I think we must agree to differ in our opinions then, which is absolutely fine is it not? I think we need to be consistent in our opinions though. That hypothetical example I gave of the MEP who was trying to stop a no deal Brexit through his platform in the European parliament. If you believe that Farage was wrong in his actions then you must also accept the same applies here. Do you agree?

Also, I think we both know that the Daily Mail is not going to call out Farage in this (until they changed editors anyway) But I'd fully expect the likes of the Guardian, Mirror and Independent to have had him hung drawn and quartered by now.

Yes. Has that happened?

There is a difference though, as you could theoretically ask the EU to allow UK more time, rather than simply frustrate.

What can expect it's Theresa May premiership, it's her doing, we get what we vote for.
