    listening to your stepfather when he is pissed is not talking to a Brexiter.

    HTH.
    You may be struggling with understanding that my MP, like the vast majority, will vote to reject the terms.

    I don't see any clear route beyond that where this deal will be accepted or that leaving in March can be stopped.

    Joyous.

    Don't confuse them with reality and fact. Brexiters think the whole process is based on that one piece of paper only. FFS, they do constantly live up to the idea that they're all

    The terms of the future partnership have not been agreed.
    But I guess it's not the first time a Brexiter has been ignorant/misinformed.

    And can article 50 actually be rescinded? without penalty? after wasting two years of 28 country's time and effort?
    Really?

    Yes, possibly. We'll know this week.

    Exit the European single market and customs union but seek a "deep and special partnership" including comprehensive free trade and customs agreement
    Vote in both Houses of Parliament on "final agreement" for Brexit
    Assess whether to continue with specific European programmes and it "will be reasonable that we make a contribution" to the ones which continue
    Agree terms of future partnership with EU alongside withdrawal, both within the two years allowed under Article 50

    It did indeed, but not by which mechanism. Both Norway and Canada were often put up as examples by leave as deals we would look to base our deal on. There was never a mention on no deal; this is a more recent idea put forward by JRM and his cronies at ERG.

    People, therefore, never voted for no deal. They voted for this government to negotiate a deal. They have now done this. If the people do t like this deal they should have a choice to reject it, and thus also reject brexit.

    You can't have it all ways dear boy. You wanted a brexit deal, you have a brexit deal. Suck it up, or vote to remain in the EU (assuming MPs reject the deal first on your behalf)

    That's odd, can't quite remember that being an option...
