Thus far the sad sorry mess is not surprising when you consider May was always a remainer but one thought not mentioned on here yet.......what if there are enough Labour rebels prepared to vote for this deal.....remember, Corbyn has always been anti EU and as matters stand, May is doing a fine job at giving him the public support he would need to get into power.

Bearing in mind May said "No deal is better than a bad deal" then adding a third option of No Brexit right at the death, perhaps it is time she was ousted and renegotiations were commenced and failing that, a no deal Brexit would be the obvious outcome? :hmmm:

Labour is to focus on pushing for a general election than giving a hoot about us the voters what we want and that is no we do not want one. I do not believe May will go down the no deal road if she fails to push her plan. I would not be surprised in the end we stay in the EU as the voters are sick of it all now.



Brexit minister Suella Braverman resigns, another lightweight.

Sterling has fallen sharply after Cabinet ministers Dominic Raab and Esther McVey quit over Prime Minister Theresa May's draft Brexit deal.

The pound fell more than 1% against the dollar to $1.2798 and dropped more than 1% against the euro to €1.1313.

All these lightweights eventually add up to a heavyweight.

Ashen-faced European diplomats haunt the corridors of Brussels. No rest for them until Sunday 25 November - the day of the "seal the deal" Brexit summit between Theresa May and EU leaders.

So what do they have to do between now and then?

Diplomats from the 27 EU countries must now pore over 585 pages of the draft Brexit withdrawal agreement with lawyers to ensure all will be to each government's liking.

If a problem is identified, it will need to be transmitted to the team of Michel Barnier, the EU's chief Brexit negotiator, as early as this Friday or Saturday.

The 27 member states (and Theresa May) also still have to agree what should be in the political declaration on the future EU-UK relationship.

This part of the divorce treaty is not legally binding - but it is symbolically important. At the moment the text is solely made up of a series of bullet points and headings. So the pressure is definitely on, leading up to the 25th.

Looks like an interesting week and a half ahead on both sides of the Channel then.

WHY IS SHE SAYING WE ARE LEAVING THE EU IN FULL?


No one is buying that. :damn:

Only the party faithful and I suspect they are decreasing in numbers with each passing hour.

BREAKING NEWS


Mog writes the letter of no confidence





Corrected
That is my media career over....Lets go down the pub.

Jimbuna 11-15-18 08:26 AM

CONVENIENCES :haha:

STEED 11-15-18 08:43 AM

Mog looks cool. You got to give it to him he is cool headed but will he throw his hat in the ring if the leadership challenge is on?


If this happens Labour will go all out for a general election.

Skybird 11-15-18 08:49 AM

It gets reported over here, referencing to Press Association, that Rees-Mogg indeed goes after May's head.

I seem to recall his name from earlier this year. They said he is a hope of the coservative, the coming new leader of the consevatives. And he is very pro-Brexit.

And yes Steed, its difficult to imagine how a man can look any more British than he does. :)

Jimbuna 11-15-18 08:56 AM

I'm wondering if May knew she was on a mission impossible and thereby accepted the fist odeal offered.

The referendum saw off Cameron and she is nowhere near as capable.
