Well we don't appear to have the division currently seen in the UK and USA. Perhaps it's time they removed the united part. :lol:

Re: Three Days to Plan B
May's deal, technically known as "May's botched deal" is widely expected to be rejected tomorrow evening, in which case Jezza is expected to call a vote of no confidence (in the government, this time). Nobody is sure what stubborn as an ass May will do if defeated, but I'm not the only one hoping she will step aside, and at very least let a new Tory leader have a go. There are certainly going to be some fireworks for the remainder of the week.

I'm glad that bill bringing plan B forward (3 day limit instead of the weeks they originally had) was passed, because I'd love to see how you'd turn Wing & a Prayer into policy. I actually think May's dogs dinner might be the most reasonable deal you're going to get, and with parliament split between Hard Brexit/ Canada Deal/ Norway Deal/ Broken May Deal/ No Brexit I can't see hoe they move forward. Interesting that the SNP's objection to a soft border down the Irish sea is that it will make NI unfairly competitive... by my thumbsuck math (At Westminster, Scotland is represented by 35 MPs from the Scottish National Party,13 from the Conservative Party, 7 MPs from the Labour Party and 4 from the Liberal Democrat) |

Given the goat at the helm, that's the $64 million question. He's pro-Brexit, many Labour supporters are pro-Brexit, but the party is officially pro-Remain. He would need to follow party policy. I also think Labour would need to differentiate themselves from the Tories if a new election focussed on Brexit.

I agree with all that but think that for Labour to be elected they would have to ditch Corbyn and go with someone credible, like David Lammy.

This is key particularly as the EU have stated that the deal on the table is the best they will offer. It seems to me that, if the result of the referendum is to be respected, the deal on the table is either accepted, or they leave without a deal. Anything else is simply attempting to avoid the result of the referendum which, of course, is precisely what lots want.
Seems as though the No Deal exit has been rejected by Parliament. |

Re: Three Days to Plan B
So now there's a "no confidence" vote. Perhaps there will be an election. If there is Corbyn will again be a dodgy character not standing for anything much and the Tories will again be in office. Then will they have a clue what to do?

Re: Three Days to Plan B
So the DUP all voted against May's deal but will vote with the Government on a confidence vote ?!?!
Wow, we are so far through the looking glass. |
