She literally has no idea what to do. Trying to appease everyone for the past 2 years.

And to this observer, not one section of the HOC was ever going to be appeased. They pretty much all voted to invoke Article 50, and have done nothing since except jam and delay everything she has tried to do. For their own galleries/ambition.
I really get why Brexiteers are so frustrated, but as a Remainer, I am as equally fed up with the lot of them.
It all gonna kick off in HOC. Has she offered a free vote in Parliament for a 2nd referendum or will it be whipped?

No idea mate. If it got to the point of another referendum vote, as it stands, Labour, Libs, SNP and Plaid have all said they want one. Not sure about the DUP. So it wouldnt need more than a handful of Tories to ignore a whip, even if there was one, to get it through.
But I have long said that Corbyn isnt remotely interested in a vote on anything. If he reckons he can get a GE sooner than later, that will be all he is arsed about.
Exactly, but it’s not even a Brexit vs Remainer because even those camps are split.
This mess is a 50/50 split between her and Cameron. Contingency planning 3 months before 29th March was the most unbelievable thing I’ve ever seen, the second was being told that the PM would not be conducting any viability exercises and locking down any talk of such right before he called the referendum, because in his words “the British people will never vote to leave”
Utter cock up, a massive waste of public finances and time. At this point I just wished they’d either go through with it and deal with the fall out or call it off and deal with the fall out. It’s farcical
She interviewed me for her show once. Horrible person.

Because it will split the Tory party mate. And out of that a nationalist party will most likely emerge with a large following based around Brexit. We will stay in the EU, which I know you and the majority of posters in here want, but that will do nothing to mend the split in the country which will become even more polarised if that is possible. Roughly half of the country will still want to leave the EU and that won't change, and probably more than half of our MEPs aim will be to disrupt the workings of the EU.
This country will become a toxic place to live and work, and the UK will be pariahs across the EU. In my opinion, staying in the EU now will actually be worse for the country than leaving without a proper trade deal. And that's from somebody who has always been totally against a no deal Brexit.

Whilst the majority of Labour voters may be remain supporters, the problem some Labour MPs have is that more than half of their seats actually voted leave. Some by considerable margins. If they were to support a second referendum vote, despite it being party politics, they will still have to answer to their constituents. It isn't as straight forward as it may appear.
I would imagine DUP would be very much anti a second referendum.
if joey and the boys get their way the real mess is very much in front of us

Two Brexiteers having a pop of at each other about who is the least traitorous, only in Brexit camp.
Meanwhile, the balls up that our stoic defenders of democracy @BigBlueNose and @Joey66 were defending continues...
