Current Affairs EU In or Out

Not really. May's deal is now the option with the biggest majority i would guess.

I don't think so, I think a couple of these options were closer.

hour of my I've wasted waiting for that rubbish, they can't agree then the knob who thought it up wants to do it again, you can't make it up

No, what he was doing was leaving open the opportunity to revisit - "Indicative Votes 2" as it were. Same as May has done with the Meaningful Vote.

Realistically, it won't happen, but he has to leave the door ajar - it's good politics.

Good to see Jezza piping up and calling out the government, more opposition from the SNP

Eh? Last time it showed it got 202 votes. For example tonight the U.K. wide customs union option got in the region of 270 votes.

Blackford has consistently held the government to account far better than Corbyn.

And Blackford is crap too.

 

[ToffeeTim]

Nah as Blackford is saying now, it means the General Election is a lot more likely now.

I've been saying that for a while. It's the right thing to do too imo. Even if it's very unlikely to solve the situation, it's how our parliamentary system works. If the government can't pass laws then they can't govern. If they can't govern then we need an election.

Yeah but May's 3rd vote will be a lot closer than that.

Anyway it's a no deal Brexit on 12th April

rats all of them

No deal got hammered in those votes.

No deal got hammered in those votes.

The legal default is no deal on the 12th April.

Tonight's shambles has forced the hand. Either vote with May or leave on the 12th

If it ever does come back for a 3rd time a few more Tory backbenchers May vote for it but she still won’t have the DUP or the ERG on side.
So she won’t get it through.

FFS Even the motion for a second referendum tonight got 40 more votes than her deal.

It’s a dead duck - if Parliament can’t produce a viable alternative on Monday then it’s a long delay and general election time IMO.

The EU will accept a long delay.

 

[Jebus_lives]

Customs Union or People's Vote from these.

Customs Union lost by 8, People's vote by 27

 

[arminisgod]

The EU will accept a long delay.

who say's parliament will? in fact it was voted down the other week.

 

[abelard]

how is a general election meant to follow? avoiding one at all costs is probably the only thing the Tories still agree on
