In my opinion it looks like some if not almost a majority of the English politicians have an another agenda, than what the people have voted in this brexit-referendum.

That's why I hold on my standpoint.
First the country leave the EU, thereafter this country can negotiate trade and other things with the EU.

The politicians in a country, who have voted for an exit, shall not have the chance to stretch this exit or trying to through this referendum in a bin.

It looks like a delay until the end of June will be agreed tomorrow.

Correction...

But the EU is expected to offer a longer delay, after European Council President Donald Tusk urged the other 27 leaders to back a flexible extension of up to a year - with conditions.

I've had it with brexit it can sod off, we got domestic problems in the UK and nothing is being done! All those useless B'stards at Westminster have and will continual too play the Brexit game thanks too lets kick the can down the road because I'm a moron of a Prime Minister.


The UK is smouldering badly all we need is a blast of wind and the fire will run amuck. Kicking the bloody brexit can down the road to October is not the bloody answer. Stuff Brexit and remain in the EU and get our own domestic problems sorted out. The brexit game is costing the UK time and money time to stop it now.


We are the laughing stock of the world we have a moron PM a moron government cabinet a moron government benches and a moron government opposition. This proves we need radical reform of Westminster now!

Theresa May has agreed a delay to Brexit until Halloween after EU leaders offered another extension to Article 50 at a late-night Brussels summit.

Looks like the French were beaten by the Germans again

The French president, Emmanuel Macron, enraged fellow leaders after standing alone against a long extension to Britain’s membership of the EU.

Macron insisted on speaking last during a working dinner in Brussels on Wednesday night during which he set his stall against a longer extension up to 31 December backed by the German chancellor, Angela Merkel.

Over a dinner of scallop salad, cod loin and macadamia nut parfait, it soon emerged that France was nearly isolated, with only a handful of member states, such as Belgium, sounding sympathetic to his arguments.

The European commission president, Jean-Claude Juncker, told the room that Macron’s opposition meant that “we are now only solving French domestic problems”.

German officials were said to be “very irritated” with Macron.

What treachery is afoot now?

Probably the only potential replacement I think is worse than what we currently have.

European elections: Nigel Farage launches Brexit Party

Ex-UKIP leader Nigel Farage has said his new Brexit Party has similar policies to his old party but there is a "vast difference" in personnel.

He said the party's European election candidates were mainly business people and "high achievers who want to put the confidence back into British politics".

Mr Farage said UKIP had allowed the far right to take over and that "the brand is now tarnished". https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-47907350

Twas only a matter of time

I like the way the EU states this is our last chance don't wast it as to say get on with it and what do our lot do? Go on holiday, this action tells me they are not serious about Brexit as I have said they think its a game.

Tories are very very worried by this.

The Tories are totally divided and their main concern should be that they are making it much easier for Steptoe to get the keys to No 10.
