I'm not sure what devious and cunning plot Steptoe is working on but it is common knowledge he is anti EU yet his offer to May is nothing other than total surrender to the EU.

I'm also wondering why he is not going for a peoples vote as agreed by his last party conference decision

He is a blatant opportunist, like every career politican. He is weaseling his way towards feeding his ultimate craving: that for power. And he egg-dances to avoid getting called out for being that power-hungry weasel.

No spine, no principles, no character.Which is no surprise, you only rarely see this on polticians nowadays. Just underhanded, brutal egoism.

Agreed but sometimes one has been known to slip up...

Yep, but that already happened in 2016.
She has guts though. More than Mr Johnson, or "Nigel".

Too much negative press for even Steptoe to stomach.

An Irish shipping firm? odd that it should withdraw it's support the same day our PM was over there touting for a better deal

Nigel Farage hints at becoming leader of newly-recognised Brexit Party

The former UKIP leader said he would stand as a candidate for the party in the European Parliament elections if Brexit is delayed.

https://news.sky.com/story/nigel-far...party-11632003

For some one who hates the EU it looks like he can't wait to be re-elected and get back on the EU gravy train. Sorry Nigel you have blown it in my book.

Oh I'm not all that sure....it was mainly due to his efforts we have actually got this far.

Prime Minister Theresa May will ask MPs to give her more time to secure changes to the controversial part of her Brexit deal - the Northern Irish backstop.

Mrs May is due to report back to MPs this week, after trying to persuade the EU to make last-minute changes.

According to the BBC's Iain Watson, the PM will promise Parliament another vote on other Brexit options if a deal is still not ready by the end of February.

Labour wants to hold Mrs May to her word and make sure the vote is held.https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-47187491

I'm beginning to think she is modelling herself on Thatcher.

All is not as well in the EU as some would have us believe...
