    If the EU won't offer a sensible deal that is fair to both sides, then we leave with no deal.

    Do you really believe that? I don’t think you’ll be able to find a PM who’ll be willing to take responsibility for a no-deal Brexit. Even if some hardcore Brexiteer would be willing to go for a hard Brexit, he would want to have the buy-in from a majority so that it’s not him being pointed at when the ship sinks. So you’ll be back at a vote, whether that’s parliament, a referendum or a GE.

    That is the law. It is already in the legislation.

    The law also allows for extensions of A50. And laws can be changed.

    We will have a Leaver PM soon, most likely Raab or Johnson.

    What an upgrade ????

    If Parliament doesn't like it they can try to force a GE with a confidence vote and if successful, they will lose their seats to Brexit MP's and possibly have Farage as PM.

    An even better upgrade ???? 

     

    I really thought having been a laughing stock for the past two years would have been enough for the British, but seeing people actually favor Johnson, Raab or even Farage makes me wonder how low you actually wanna go.

    Yes, I know that you were just trying to be witty and clever .

    Just stating facts.

    There are also Conservative and Labour M.P.s who also support Brexit , so a vote for them cannot be seen as anti-Brexit

    Why didn’t they vote Brexit then?

    Results of the EU election will be in soon.

    No need to guess.

    Not that any result would give you the necessary parliamentary majority; I bet the majority will vote for soft Brexit or remain parties, only a minority will actually vote for Farage’s hard Brexit. So, I anything, the EU election will show you what people have been telling you for months: there is not majority for anything.

    And that last quote is winning more veto's ...and only 1 is even enough 2 where there already , but avoided by a last consensus of goodwill 

    I think what is being said is that there is no way for MPs to veto it should someone like BJ just run down the clock. Not that I would care a lot if the UK decided to wrack their country; just saying...

    Probably not a good idea for you to be his agent.

    I don’t have the ambition to be his agent. I was simply stating what I think could be a likely way out of the impasse for someone like BJ. I am not alone with that opinion:

     

    (...) a research paper from the Institute of Government is doing the rounds, arguing that MPs no longer have any clear mechanism to stop a no-deal exit; the devices they had before have fallen away. If a prime minister wants to crash out, perhaps by simply running out the clock and waiting for the EU extension to expire on 31 October, it would be a “near-impossible task” for MPs to stop them.

    Come off it! Boris Johnson thinks he's the reincarnated Churchill, with a God given right to lead the nation ... he'd sell his sister into prostitution to get his hands on that job. 

     

    The problem is that he has no plan, no idea what to do once he gets the job. He's a guy who has been "winging it" all his life ... and he's too old to change.

     

     

     

    He might just announce: “I will leave without a deal if you make me PM.” That way, he could bounce off the responsibility of a hard Brexit to his party. Then he’ll just run down the clock and be the clown he is.

  7. The good thing about this is, it ensures that:

    1. Brexiteers will get excited while nothing will change; 

    2. We will have more fun with the Brexit shytshow. It really got a bit boring lately. 

     

    Just please no second referendum, that would mean the shytshow ends and instead of Brexiteers making a fool of themselves for us to laugh (“maybe we have left the EU already” anyone?) we would have them back in the EU.

    Theresa May won the leadership contest in her party. As a result of that vote she was made PM. She then won the general election as leader of the conservatives. As a result of that vote the Tories had another term in power (with the help of the DUP). So please explain clearly which vote hasn't been implemented (except Brexit of course)?

    Her full term hasn’t been implemented. She wasn’t vote to be a temporary PM until further notice.

    PS it's 24th May 2019 today so I'm not sure what you're talking about when you say the people didn't vote to make her PM until June 2019 (next month)?!?!

    I thought we are discussing people demanding her to be replaced before her term ends. Whether that’s June 2019 or July or November (it probably won’t be this month).
