  • What a calamity! So the ERG have implemented yet another "cunning plan" that would make even Baldrick squirm. Tomorrow "no deal" is off the table and the next day an extension of Article 50 will be vo

    The UK had 9 months to think about triggering Article 50, and then a full two years to negotiate the exit. Would it be too harsh to say that the Brexiters voted with their guts and had no clue on how

No, its is quite straight forward . 

Leave the E.U.

Leave the E.U.

It was a short , simple , straight forward question and people answered that question .

They want to leave the E.U

If I were one of the EU leaders, I would refuse the application for an extension, as clearly there is no significant reason to delay. Parliament are split and will never reach agreement. UK have asked to leave on 29th March, force them to do so! Why should the EU waste more time and money on a country that doesn't want to be a member state.

But you are not, are you? Don’t you think this subject has already been discussed? You have to differentiate between what you want and what will happen.

Only the UK doesn't recognize the absolutism of national referendums as anything but advisory.

 

The government have tried and failed to implement the advice in such a way as the sovereign body, parliament, approves. If parliament rejects leaving with "no deal" as is likely, then what would you suggest?

 

The obvious deadlock breaker would seem another referendum to give parliament and the government more advice; or perhaps a general election where parties could spell out their proposed solutions?

Some Brexiteers reverting to throwing their rattles out of the prams. Not so keen having no-deal voted on today.

16 days and counting. There isn’t enough time left for them to complete all their trickery to avoid Leaving on the 29th.

Is that a line from “the ballad of wishful thinking”? Your no deal wet dream is over today.

Why did the politicians vote against the deal with the E.U then ?

 

Some because it's a crap deal, some because their party leader told them too as he hopes to provoke a general election, and win; some because they want to leave with no deal and some because they want to remain and still hope to engineer that.

 

Just a guess of course.. May just been brain farts!

No-deal Brexit still around 9/2

The Labour Party has had several opportunities to put an alternative case and has failed every time, mostly due to its own internal civil war but don't let that stop Brexiteers shoveling up yet more bogus Conspiracy Theory nonsense.

The Labour Party and multitudes of others have offered alternatives.

But they never had any submission allowed, never mind debated in any rational way.

No, this Brexit option is demanded by Ms May and the debate is closed to anyone else.

The whole episode is cynical politics at best and total abandonment of democracy at worse.

 I hope the public can see this and cream every lousy member at the next election. 

Total ignoring the vote of the public. Total lack of democracy.

Corbyn prattles on about how Labor would get a better deal, including staying in the EU customs union, which would mean EU control. 

 

I've never seen Labors actual detail of what their "better deal" would look like, nor how they expect to get it from the EU. Have you?

Nice to see the Hard Brexiteers march through the same voting lobby as Jeremy Corbyn last night.

I hope you're right.  Revoke Article 50 is the answer.

Going the right way then, Donald Tusk himself as stated last nights defeat increases the chance of a no deal. But who in their right mind can predict an outcome of the mess, I'm guessing not even you.

Have you thought that Jezza was marching through the same voting lobby as the Hard Brexiteers.:glare:

 

Either way I believe he has no chance of ever becoming PM.

Despite failure to uphold democratic process and inability to get the Brexit deal through,the Government is refusing to resign or call an early election.

This is worse than R.Mugabe or the fugitive Takhsin. 

 

 

Do you understand what a representative democracy is; how it works; that parliament is sovereign; that referendums are only advisory; ?

Yes.  Corbyn met with EU leaders and they were receptive to Labour's Brexit plan of remaining in the Customs Union and Single Market.

 

Personally. I'd prefer a People's vote so that remain can be an option, but Labour's plan would be a 2nd best alternative.  Unless of course you want to wreck the country, which is what the extreme Brexiteers seem to want!

I hope your're right on your last sentence. But too many young people I know 18-35 find his visions attractive. They believe him when he promises lots of freebies, a fairer society etc. They get caught up in the Momentum bull shit; and are all too young to remember the damaging Labor governments manipulated by communists, hard left socialists and union militants of the past. 

Worst scenario is UK out on a hard Brexit followed by Corbyn winning a general election. If that happens watch the UK become the next Venezuela!

The mess has a lot to do with Corbyn, if you get the chance to watch a repeat of last nights 'Newsnight', Emily Maitland grilled MPs from every persuasion, she was magnificent and one thing that was said was, "Prime Minister May has lost her voice and the leader of the opposition has nothing to say. 

Corbyn is playing politics and not bothered one ha'pence about the nation. What a shambles the lot of them.

Unfortunately the odds on no-deal not happening end of the month is 1/7

Erm, it’s not about Corbyn.

 

Painful as it is to face the reality of your failing Brexit, for your own good I urge you to do so.

Remaining in the Customs Union and Single Market would cost us a lot of money, subject us to EU rules and controls, and mean we have no say in the making of those rules.

 

Much better to have the people's vote again, now many are better informed. Having said that, I know a lot of people who still swallow all the hard Brexit bull shit and think all these current problems are the EU's fault!
