Re: Brexit referendum result aftermath
If there was ever a time for Corbyn to put aside his pr for a moment and admit that he is anti-Eu and wants out, it is now, to have the two leader of the biggest parties in the UK would send a clear message to the EU
May needs to be ultra strong here and stick it to the EU and hold firm, it's high stakes poker and we/she shouldn't fold and see what the opposition want to come back with at all or fold.

Re: Brexit referendum result aftermath
If she has any sense she will walk out of that door and say she is leaving them to it. One thing I have agreed with those on the remain side about is the complete lack of suggestion from brexiteers. If this deal is so bad then they need to offer an alternative now.

Re: Brexit referendum result aftermath
Who’d have thought sorting out Brexit would be such a mess? Maybe the minority (48.2%) of the country...
Hate to say it but I feel sorry for Theresa May being left to try and work this out. Cameron should’ve had the balls to finish what he started, or a Brexiteer should have led it.

Re: Brexit referendum result aftermath
May emerges from Number 10 and says she believes the deal is the best that could be negotiated and precious little else. She'll be making a statement to Parliament tomorrow.
That's all folks.

Marvellous.
The cabinet have agreed to back the deal.

Re: Brexit referendum result aftermath
Interesting when she said:
It’s this deal, no deal, or no Brexit
Might not be a unanimous decision from the cabinet.
Will still be a surprise if it gets enough votes to get it through parliament.

Is that the first time she’s acknowledged “No Brexit” as an option? Interesting indeed.aaronhammer wrote:Interesting when she said:

Re: Brexit referendum result aftermath
So what Liam Fox told us would be the easiest deal in history has taken two years to reach and seems to mean the UK pays £39 billion to leave the EU but stay within its regulations.
Not surprisingly most people, leavers or remainers, don't seem to like the deal.
I don't blame May and I don't think that Labour could negotiate anything better.
May has set out the choices tonight (deliberately or not) -
This deal
No deal
No Brexit
It's time to let the people make an informed choice.

Re: Brexit referendum result aftermath
Sky "sources" reporting the cabinet was very split, the DUP have gone suspiciously quiet :lol:
Foster praying half a dozen cabinet ministers resign tomorrow, the same half a dozen cabinet ministers praying the DUP do the did for them.
Is there a vote on the FOBT in the next dew days ? Some Government motion, unrelated to Brexit, will get defeated in the house as a "show of strength" by those too scared to show their true colours.
You know it's bad when even the Belgians are looking at us in disbelief.

Re: Brexit referendum result aftermath
When May talks about no Brexit she is using it as leverage/a threat to Tory MPs.
The Tory vote is overwhelmingly leave. Remain is not an option for a Tory government.

Re: Brexit referendum result aftermath
So all the noises suggest a vote of no confidence in May is likely. If that happens, who would stand against her? Could either Leave or Remain candidates actually command a majority in the party, and would any 'unification' candidate be able to avoid being labelled the new May? And more important, what kind of maniac would actually want the job in the current climate?

Re: Brexit referendum result aftermath
Pinky, the government have already given in on FOBT, the new limit will be from April.
As far as the EU deal, it looks like the UK is paying £39 billion to give up its vote, and that's about it.
