E.U: Leave or Stay? Your thoughts.

I mean, Soba pot noodles are pretty good.

 

So basically the government is saying:
Dear MPs please rule out no deal in the free vote in order to force yourself into a binary choice between the twice rejected May WA and revoke but if you fail to choose either one it circles round to no deal.

Sounds perfectly reasonable with ~16 days to go

 

Spelman amendment to rule out no deal for good passed by 4.

 

Ultimately meaningless as no deal is 'on the table' until and unless they either pass a deal or give up and revoke the A50 letter [and possibly the withdrawal act]...


...still... bahahahahahahahahahahahahaha...

 

And the Malthouse amendment just jumped head first from the brexit cliff to test the concrete below (defeated by 210)...

So now on to votes about the amended main motion

 

Well the tories are now 3-line whipping against the motion... so much for a free vote...

 

Ayes 321 No 278 on main motion despite gov maybe having whipped against it due to first amendment...

First words out of the mouth of May after the vote?

"I will keep repeating myself"

 

Welp, another day of voting about nothing, that changes nothing.

15 days until no deal Brexit, at least the slim majority didn't vote for it, so they did a little better than I expected.

 

...and MPs will keep telling her to jog on no doubt.

 

I find it amusing that they voted for not having a no-deal scenario barely a day after rejecting the only deal they will get.

Do MP's get together after parliament and bash each other in the head with lead pipes? Is a requirement for being an MP to have no foresight beyond dinner and ducks? Are we the public so retarded we keep voting in these people with obvious learning difficulties despite how many times they screw the pooch and fail to articulate why they keep putting their rancid old todger in the janitors dog?

Is the ERG finally done for?
A rather severe contradiction about ERG strategy emerged today:

The ERG is rumoured to agree to vote for MV3 if May offers to resign. The suspicion is that they will then try to get a puppet PM in post (Boris Johnson) and try and scupper the ensuing FTA negotiations with the EU, to still get their Singapore-on-the-Thames.

Certainty for business? Not for the next decade. Brexit is going to be the political monster that ate Britain.

 

Perhaps.

But don't underestimate the British, we have a habit of not giving up in dire situations. In fact we love it so much we create our own.
