    haha.

    What has changed is the MPs public stance, despite there being no material change to the government stance.
    It was always going to be this way. A 230 vote loss was always going to become a small loss, with no changes, as pressure increased.

    The pieces are still moving. The game is far from over. No deal is less likely than 6 months ago, but more likely than 6 weeks ago.
    No ****er knows what next, and if they claim they do they're lying.
    See You Next Tuesday

      Probably the first time I've agreed with you on here

      Question is, where do parliament go next? Ask 100 people this question, you will get 101 answers!

      Will May get her renegotiated changes from EU? Possible but unlikely (EU says no)
      If May gets the changes will parliament vote May's deal through? Possible, but unlikely (ERG, labour, SNP, Tory Remainers et al will all vote it down)
      If May's deal gets voted down, what will happen next?
      - Crash out? Possible, but unlikely (MPs last night signaled they won't allow that)
      - GE? Possible, but unlikely (would need Tory rebels and DUP to vote with Labour in no confidence)
      - Rescind A50? Possible, but unlikely (who has the balls to do this?)
      - Extend A50? Possible, but unlikely (what do we gain from this? more time doesn't = a solution)
      - 2nd ref? Possible, but unlikely (parliament hasn't got the balls to go back to the people in case they get a difference answer)

      Anything I've missed off?

      What I do know for certain is brexiters and remainers will continue to argue and our country remains broken. If only brexiters would admit what a cock up they've made, and how wrong they are, we could go back to living in a successful country again

        Roll a six sided die and every possible outcome is unlikely. That's where the UK is.

          Yes, May has 100% won (or been given) a full mandate to be told to f**k off by the EU. Again

              But is it an advisory f**k off or a legally enforceable one?

                The irony of all this is, the brexiters want to leave on WTO so we can negotiate our own deals with the rest of the world. Who the ***** is going to trust us in future negotiations? This whole fiasco has directly led to us looking like numpties to the rest of the world

                5 years time, we'll be back in the EU but under EU terms (Euro etc). As contractors, let's make some dosh whilst the chaos continues

                  We always advise sensible people to tell you to f**k off, and no, we can't spare you any change

                    Probably advisory but she'd be making a mockery of democracy if she ignored the will of the people [emoji6]

                      It's not about trust. They just won't be able to resist Britain's tasty jam tea and biscuit exports.
