I agree with you
My response was to highlight the only people preventing the bill from potential passing is the government themselves.
There is nothing stopping the government putting a sensible timetable forward for debate except Boris self imposed deadline.

Well maybe. The Govt worried that Parliament will pass amendments it does not agree with and therefore not wanting to support the final substantive motion.

The comment about being "passed" has come back on them.

 

The Conservative party has been embroiled in a fake news row over social media posts claiming Boris Johnson's Brexit deal had been approved by MPs.

EU set to put Brexit delay on hold after Johnson's ultimatum

PM’s threat to pull deal if Corbyn rejects general election leaves Brussels in state of flux

 

The EU’s plan to offer the UK an extension until 31 January on Friday is expected to be put on hold after Boris Johnson threatened to pull the Brexit deal if Jeremy Corbyn rejects a general election.

Sources said the dramatic developments in Westminster needed to be fully understood and the choreography in Brussels could change.

Donald Tusk, the European council chairman, had been expected to announce on Friday morning, following a meeting with ambassadors, that the EU27 had accepted the delay requested in a letter reluctantly sent by Johnson last Saturday. But senior EU sources said the developments in London had left the situation in flux. An announcement is expected on Monday or Tuesday.

We're now left in the appalling position where there is no possible way to actually leave the EU - as parliament has made it very clear that they have no intention of leaving/the EU has made it clear that they will grant never ending extensions/parliament has no intention of even allowing another GE.
 
A continual state of 'limbo' - which only further damages the UK.

So sorry the Brexiteers cannot bypass Parliament.

But Parliament can bypass the peoples instructions....

But Parliament can bypass the peoples instructions....

Which has not happened. There are absolutely no 'peoples instructions' re no-deal Brexit. The thing to always be vigilant about is the Hard Brexiteer lie that there is such an instruction.

Not again, don't you have anything else up your sleeve to fall back on.

There was never a deal or no deal in the referendum vote. It was leave or stay.

Boris would secure 'no deal' next week by threatening to make Farage UKs EU commissioner if they extend ????

Yes. There was nothing about the terms of withdrawal. That is the responsibility of Parliament, not some mythical People's Vote. The cheap trick from the Hard Brexiteers is painting all deals as = remain. Shallow and dishonest.

About as likely as his appointment as UK Ambassador to the US.

Yes, there were just the assurances of the leave campaign the UK would stay in the Customs Union.

The facts are, we voted to leave. That is a fact, but MP's, the house speaker and a few posters here, do not want that fact implemented because it may upset their own stuff. Fact....

There were many inconsistances In what was said by both sides of the Brexit arguements, but what is not inconsistant is what our leaders told us, they catagorically stated that we would be leaving the single market and the customs union.

Shall become Monday as earliest ….maybe later as the Westminster sky could clear up …..Maybe Macron get his way …?

Barnier: EU not yet able to decide on length of next Brexit extension

Johnson’s threat to pull bill unless there is general election rings alarm bells in Brussels

 

Michel Barnier has said the EU27 has not yet been able to make a decision on the length of the next Brexit delay due to the ongoing debate in the UK over Boris Johnson’s demand for a general election.

Speaking after a two-hour meeting of ambassadors in Brussels, the EU’s chief negotiator said an “excellent” discussion had not concluded with any clear way forward. “No decision,” he said.

It may now take until Monday or Tuesday for the EU to make public its offer on an extension after parliament votes on whether there will be a general election.

Don't need one, 17+ million provided the fact that we leave. You, and a few others here, can waffle round it all you like, but you all know the vote was leave.

 

Time for your gang to stop hiding behind your own agenda and respect the vote.

'losers consent'

Without it the winners of the looming GE might as well fit a revolving door @ the supreme court.

But this is not how democracy works - You don't completely ignore the views of pretty much half the population.

 

Otherwise the ignored people start protesting about the fact they are being ignored and find ways to block you 

 

The country quickly becomes impossible to govern because of the lack of consent - this is all part of what living in a democracy means - people are still allowed protest and to try every legal means possible to prevent the government implementing measures that will harm them.

 

Consent it not given unbounded by one vote . There lies the way to dictatorship   

What is going on in the backrooms ….? E.U. or Number 10 ones  ?

EU delays Brexit extension decision

Friday 25 October 2019 11:39, UK

 

Brussels has agreed the need for a Brexit extension but will not make a decision on its length until next week.

The development comes as Boris Johnson pushes to hold a general election on 12 December.

Meanwhile, Downing Street has said if the EU offers a Brexit delay the Government can change the date of departure through secondary legislation, known as a statutory instrument.
