Is Brexit actually going to happen?

[SpackleFrog]

I suppose that’s marginally better than the people’s two leave vs one remain option, if you are a glass half full kinda guy.

Which do you vote for though? May's awful deal or letting the establishment just cancel the whole thing?

Cooper now working with Oliver Letwin to put forward her no no deal/extend A50 amendment. Some chumps I've never heard of doing a similar softer one in the hope that MP's go for that instead.

Which Brexit amendments will be tabled?

 

[Sprocket.]

Cooper and Letwin collaborating, who would ever have thought it.
Strange days indeed.

Corbyn strongly rumoured to be tabling or backing an amendment for second referendum according to R4 just now.

He looked at Cooper then letwin and back again and whispered "dam' me if I can tell the difference"

The number threatening to bail must have been considerable, then?

It would seem so wouldn’t it. Succumbing to pressure.

Not a second referendum on staying in the EU.

There is no difference from previous policy is there?

I think its his option (this five tests thing), then when that fails its supporting the Kyle-Wilson amendment.

In each and every scenario here we must ask with with divisions?

I've heard more people running out their doors last 5 minutes shouting YES! than when she died.

At what point do the saner MPs in the Tory Party grow a pair and stand up to the headbangers? There seems to be a majority in Parliament for a half out option - she should grab that with both hands.

A half-out option is more out than the deal.

I heard it repeated today - the irony that had the first referendum actually been binding on parliament, it would probably have been thrown out because of all the lies and law-breaking (and perhaps because the "remain" camp did such a crap job).
I hope it's stay as we are vs May's shitty deal.

Technically not, but basically signifies he's bowed to pressure and given up trying to get a GE.

Why has he tied, or allowed these steps to be tied together. There was and is no need.

Did cuddly Keir trap him a long time ago?

James O'Brien.
Doubtless he's a "blue socialist" or summat ...

 

[redsquirrel]

So we can go "back to what worked before". Wonderful

 

[ska invita]

Isn't any second referendum amendment or whatever it is just going to get voted down?

Looks like a sop to the potential splitters, and that's all?

 

[killer b]

he certainly isn't a disinterested reporter of facts, that's for sure.

or any kind of socialist.

The future direction of the EU will depend on input from a Labour government.
Have you ever explained on here why you think the EU is most hated by the right ?

Meanwhile ...

Cuddly Keir was certainly trying to. But as you say, no need. He could have just kept saying he was still pushing for an election. He's just bottled it under the pressure.

You can never underestimate the depths that social democracy will sink to.

It'll be on May's deal. If lots of Remainers vote for it to stop Brexit, and those supporting May's deal also voted for it to get May's deal through, we'd have a referendum on May's Deal vs Remain.

What position will Corbyn take then? Support the deal he's publicly slated? Or campaign for Remain?

Either way he'll look like a prick and rightfully so.

You'll have to settle for a velvet revolution.

Like the input from Syrzia?
And UK socialism has been opposed to the EU for 50 years. Unlike the majority of the right (including Thatcher) that were opposed to leaving in 75 and in 16.
