      Really? Perhaps you want to read the Vote Leave campaign literature again, they expressly wanted to negotiate the terms of a new deal before leaving.

      Taking back control is a careful change, not a sudden stop - we will negotiate the terms of a new deal before we start any legal process to leave
      This is, of course, for a trading deal, whereas “No Deal” refers to the Withdrawal Agreement. In 2016 we all underestimated the stupidity of Brexiters wanting to leave without even a negotiated exit arrangement.

        Threatens no deal

        I find it somewhat amusing as caller after caller rings into LBC to suggest if the PM were to threaten no deal that the EU would cave.

        It's hilarious how the EU is now playing the 'no-deal' card back at May. For months and months she's threatened no deal Brexit in the hope that the EU will give us more. Just shows how idiotic brexiters are; they still think we hold all the cards Only a matter of time until the UK government capitulate

          You are joking right, the EU are tulipting themselves. Have you heard Barnier complain about the people within and without the EU trying to break it up.

          Junker at one point was found wondering the corridors of the EU, shouting for more alcohol to lessen the agony of Brexit. Merkel has sold her shares in BMW and Mercedes because she knows one the Emerald Island Of Great Britain sales away they will have only the shrinking middle classes in China to buy their cars.

          Lets hope that for all our futures we can leave the EU.

            I see that you have fully embraced the Brexit land of Unicorns and fluffy pink tutus
            Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

              I see someone's been drinking, but it's not Junker!

              They've never denied that no-deal won't be bad for them. They've never denied they'd rather us stay. If we are to leave, they'd rather have a deal. BUT, and this is where you guys just don't get it, they will not break their own laws to give us that deal. They know no-deal will be worse for us than them, so if that's what we choose they will let us walk away.

              If they were that bothered by no-deal, do you not think they would have changed the backstop by now?

              You guys really are dim

                That's literally never been said before.

                  What do you think? Is it still possible that we can finally get what 17 million people voted for, a proper Brexit?

                  Have you noticed that the EU are starting to sweat a bit now, getting all cranky and insulting, is this the start of the end of the EU?
                  Never stop dreaming. Anything is possible as long as you can still dream.

                    It doesn't look good for a no deal.

                    ....not good at all.
