I bet T May is feeling rather upset about Johnson forcing through a deal worse than her own. 

 

Amendments will be made, the EU could easily say....fuck that.

Sorry Skend , have to pick up on this oft-repeated cobblers about Corbyn.

 

"However, following painstaking research conducted by Channel Four’s Fact Check, it can now be confirmed that rather than “consistently voting with the Tories” as the former Home Secretary (Jacqui Smith) had stated, Jeremy Corbyn actually voted against the Conservative Party a staggering 421 times out of his 428 rebellions against the Labour Party. This means that, rather than Corbyn supposedly rebelling against his own party, Labour were actually consistently proposing legislation that was essentially in line with what the Tories wanted." https://evolvepolitics.com/jeremy-corbyn-voted-against-the-tories-421-times-out-of-his-428-labour-vote-rebellions/

Trying to reason with #FBPE is just about as useless as with the Brexit Party members.

I know the timetable was voted down by 14, but that is way too close considering what is at stake and the fact it's a worse deal than May's, especially for NI. Just shows what twats those Tories are, they don't give a flying fuck about the country, just the Tory party and those who donate or feed off them. 

I suppose we should thank T May for having that snap election and reducing the Tory majority, otherwise you'd have been fucked big style.

Deleted my original post as the second vote was coming in. But yeah, they've just handed him a huge election boost. He'll be going around on an election campaign saying he's got the numbers for a deal and just needs the electorate to back him now. Absolutely scandalous by the Labour MPs. But then they're lead by Corbyn who voted over 400 times against his party and he can't say much when others follow his lead. Chumps.

I think a lot of this depends on what the Brexit Party do. Johnson promised out by the 31st. He's likely to fail on this promise. Also, some Brexiteers don't like the deal anyway and are of similar thinking to Farage in that the deal isn't really Brexit. 

 

If 3 or 4% of the Tory vote defects back to the Brexit Party, then it's all to play for really. The issue could be whether we get a hung Parliament and who Labour, if they get the opportunity, could go into coalition with?

Seeing some talk on Twitter that he could go back and ask the EU to just grant the extension until the end of November for example to keep the pressure on and that would mean the Benn act had been satisfied. 
 

Be pretty pointless to do that though because he’ll just end up back in exactly the same position at the end of November unless he can get the deal through, which seems unlikely as MPs start to scrutinise it and see the problems it will cause.

 

Only way out of this for him now that I can see is a GE.

Did I say he voted for the Tories? He voted against his party over 400 times is what I said. An evolve article spinning it as he never voted with the Tories is neither here nor there.

Brexiteers banging on about Remainers losing, bless them. They really haven't got a clue about the hurdles ahead of them, not only on the withdrawal agreement but also the phase which would follow that should the amended withdrawal agreement be accepted by the EU. They really are a bunch of cretins, desperate to leave the EU regardless of the consequences and what the actual withdrawal agreement contains. This deal, if eventually pushed through isn't even Brexit, it's basically 'Brexit in name only' with future Governments in the UK given a free run at fucking over the workers and poor.

Never heard of the cunt but at the least they should be sacked from the shadow cabinet.

Do you think that’d be wise with a general election on the horizon? The media would just spin it into a “Labour Party no longer a broad church” or “chilling undemocratic purge from Comrade Corbyn” news story.

Absolutely. Collective responsibility when you are in the cabinet is all important.

He doesn't get to choose the extension. It's for the EU to decide.

I laugh when I hear ' Just get it done ' , I believe Canada's trade deal with the EU , Our biggest present market,  took 12 years to negotiate

If a GE is called then don't be surprised with a hung parliament and even more chaos than now. 

 

The EU should realise they hold all the trump cards again and say a long extension until Sep/Oct next year, take it or leave it, we all know that a 'No Deal' scenario is only wanted by the screaming mongs and the Hedge fund dabblers. I'd guess a good 70% of MP's do not want a 'No Deal.' 

 

Force a GE and a second referendum on the UK and get on with your own work.

Fair enough. I’m not sure how well it’s play to Labour leave voters though.


Just my opinion but I think it’d be more wise to play to the majority of Labour voters and the membership which is for remain. It’ll do more damage and cost more votes pissing off remainers than leave voters.

It doesn't bode well for future deals should Brexit actually happen. You'll end up with all kinds of shit due to desperation, mainly from the good old US of A.........
