One of the basic problems is that; we can sign deals but they may well not be allowed to be implemented because of the 'backstop' conditions being imposed by EU sayso. Remove the backstop and perhaps things may be a little more OKish.

And 39 billion too much.

I don't need to go anywhere. Just bide my time. ;)

If we have another vote hopefully enough of you morons are 6ft under by now to sway the vote to Remain.

And then the rest of you will eventually hit the floor year-by-year to never make it an issue again. You cohort are the thickest pile of morons I've ever known. I think it is because you've had it too easy and that has bred apathy and ignorance. My daughter's cohort are much more switched on to issues than you old farty tabloid readers.

The darkest hour is just before dawn. But I think it is getting darker still first.

As Mervyn King wisely said yesterday:"There are arguments for remaining in the EU and arguments for leaving. But there is no case whatever for giving up the benefits of remaining without obtaining the benefits of leaving."Leadsom can say what she wants but Parliament is doing its job and this is likely to go to a Second Referendum

You cant please everyone .. so treeza comes back with a deal that pleases no one.

She is at least, consistent.


Ditch it and plan for wto, or Canada.

THIS STINKS.

Now we have the Chairman of the 1922 Committee coming out in support of May! That, IMO, is not his job: surely he is there to organise leadership elections; represent backbenchers opinions, and remain vocally impartial.

So are THE WHIPS playing really dirty? What has Brady been up to, I wonder - and others who you'd think should have more sense.

Corbyn 4.1 fav to be next PM, even money election 2019.Banks beware if his gets in.

I'd think that without a doubt, the only real laughing stock in Europe right now is the UK..........

Leadsom has spoken to the BBC this morning:

"Andrea Leadsom has warned that MPs will "live to regret" their historic vote to hold the Government in contempt of parliament, as she said its full legal advice on the Brexit deal would be published later today."

The EU is fracturing

French riots ... Macron out

Merkel losing power ... had her day ... Deutsche Bank in trouble

Italy bankrupt ... but want to spend spend spend

And now its spread to Brussels ... Belgium also having problems re immigration


All the UK has to do is call a 12 month stay ... and wait for the EU to implode

Tell me I'm wrong on that description.

You are just an irrelevant old-f%%t. Probably live in a 3 bed semi. No higher education. No professional career. Your inability and impotence throughout life has been blamed on others. Now you hope and pretend that you have influence on others but in reality nobody cares. The world has moved on from your time. Get used to it, you will sleep easier. ;)

[maxk] 04/12/2018 23:15

I dunno Min.

I have yet to come across a bigger self interested turnip than your goodself.

[minerve] 04/12/2018 23:02

Well if it avoids a Hard-Brexit that has to be something worthwhile. The minority of nutters are not going to get it all their way.

[careful] 04/12/2018 22:49

Things looking better for we remainers tonight.
Grieve amendment changes everything.
Parliament will end up deciding, which is their job.

[stonedyou] 04/12/2018 22:42

Been ordered into bed....Will answer tomorrow!

Nite nite.

Stonedyou,

Sorry, to make myself clear on the questions you queried in post 547 with reference to my post 540,

2) Question was if TM is forced to resign or fight a leadership contest who will challenge her as a credible Prime Minister? BJ (Boris) or Mogg? In the later case Mogg is a clever chap but I doubt if he will ever appeal to the mass electorate when we eventually have to have a GE, whether in 2022 or as is likely, much sooner. As for BJ hasn't he already made so many political gaffs as to remove him from ever being taken seriously as a viable contender?

3) The question relates to 'if TM is defeated' and all the six other parties gang up to try and force a GE. Then if there is a GE who will vote for a Conservative Party that is split? Also, another related question, if following that GE, Labour win; Would you be HAPPY to see an extreme Left Wing Government take control of the economy, Nationalise everything that is good in this Country (some good Private Companies that once were Nationalised)and also take Control of at least 10% of ALL COMPANIES that have 250+ employees and also FORCE COMPANIES to give up seats on their Boards to Union Officials?

Question 4) was asking your opinion on the likely effect that all the experts have said would happen to the economy if an extreme Left Wing Labour Party was to Govern re: Investments, Pensions, property assets and our Children's future.

Thanks,

Newbank

The £ fell again today.
An experienced commentator of CNBC said Brexit problems were behind tonights Dow fall.

May's strategy seems doomed to failure,
but maybe she sees a way out.
A collapse in financial markets may concentrate the minds of MP's.
The second vote could go through if the markets crash.
