Union with Narnia
Rather than rationally explain to everyone why hard Brexit is not an option for him and his party, Corbyn has done the career politician thing and ducked the issue, kicking it along the road like 70s Labour used to with big issues.

Convince MPs to accept current deal (not going to happen) True
New leave dealunlikely as DUP and others want backstop removed and Ireland will Veto that within the EU
Hard BrexitThe option currently supported by the Labour Party, and ERG
Postpone BrexitEU won't do this unless the UK has a credible deal to put forward to the EU containing an Irish Backstop
No ExitNot going to happen

Originally posted by meridian View PostThere’s only two ways that No Deal can be taken off the table:

Given the deal has been rejected, that can technically only mean one thing...
Compare and contrast the way that both sides have gone about it. The EU has involved Member States in the tricky parts of the discussions, getting diplomatic agreement on the concessions that the EU made so that everyone was aligned before the final deal was prepared. The U.K. though has worked in a vacuum, with May and the Tories doing whatever they wanted without getting agreement within their own party let alone Parliament.

Originally posted by darmstadt View PostSo, May wants Parliament to have a hand in the discussions over the next few days in regards to the 'Plan B' announcement next week. A third world banana republic is more organised:
- May offers talks
- Corbyn says only if 'no deal' is taken off of the table
- Hammond rings up 330 business people to promise that the 'no deal' threat will be removed
- May says there is no way that 'no deal' can be removed from the options
What a farse...
- Accept the deal on offer
- Revoke A50.
