    Hope she resigns but can't see it, doubt any Tories or the DUP will vote against her in a confidence vote so no general election. 0 chance of her winning the vote tonight. Deluded Doris will no doubt have some more pointless talks with Merkel and the granny grabber where nothing will change, but she will come back and put her vote to parliament again which again will be defeated then fuk knows what will happen.

    The currency exchange rate of a country is very much like the share price of a country. It is the best indicator of the economic health of that country.

    Let's see if the graph( showing the pound plunging against the euro since Brexit reared it's ugly head ) make more sense to you now.

    As you can see if anybody is heading for recession it's the UK:

    You really are too fucking dumb for words, some of this was explained to you before and you are still failing to show that you have even a basic understanding.

    I'm smart enough to know the arse has been ripped out the pound since Brexit came to town, while the euro has been largely unscathed.

    Brexit hasn't even happened yet and the pound has been damaged way beyond anything that happened during the 2008 financial crisis, including the worst £/$ exchange rate in more than 30 years.

    I'm also smart enough to know a hard brexit will end the pound, even at today's rates the cost of living will rocket, except the pound will be fucked and as the UK imports nearly everything, we can expect a kind of super inflation as a result. ...but, don't worry, by that time the great hero of the Brexiteers..Boris Johnson will be at the helm to guide the UK through those economic mega storms in uncharted waters.

    I will keep it simple for you knowing you are thick as fuk and can't even grasp the basics. How much has the pound fallen since the referendum and what is the current inflation rate or use the average rate over last 2 years if you prefer? Now can you see how fucking dumb you are?

    Would you like me to post the graph showing how much the pound has fallen since the referendum ...for a 3rd time?

    Or, do you need me to explain how a graph works?

    Good speech from Geoffrey Cox. He could swing a few votes with that.

    You really are a full on fucking retard. You stated a falling £ will lead to super inflation and the cost of living will rocket. What % has the £ fallen by since the referendum and what has the rate of inflation been since the referendum? Answer those 2 simple questions and you will see how fucking dumb you are.

    The great thing about this thread is that it reveals the utter stupidity and buffonery of the average Brexiteer.

    Case in point is Bumboy insisting the pound hasn't been damaged by Brexit and confusing himself over past and future tense as used in the English language.

    FFS, i didn't think it was possible yet you get even more retarded. Nowhere have I said the £ hasn't fallen you imbecile, of course it has fallen and I'm still waiting for you to tell me by how much and then tell me by how much inflation has risen over the same period. Then you will see what a totally fucking retarded mong you are with your clueless claims about rampant inflation and sky rocketing cost of living.

    The graph has been posted at least 3 times already, even once by you ....do you need help reading the graph or?

    Can you quote me talking about inflation and cost of living in the past or even in the present tense?

    Why would the UK have import inflation while still part of the EU?

    I'm obviously referring to what will happen as in future tense( as any asylum seeker to rock up in dinghy with only a handful of English lessons under his belt will tell you ).

    See bold:

    ...while you're ranting like an imbecile about inflation rates from the past?

    At today's rates the cost of living will rocket. Did your retarded self actually read that back before pushing reply? I really don't know why I even bother with you.

    Correct, ...the devaluation of the UK economy following a hard Brexit will occur as a result of 2 forces:

    1) The dwindling value of the pound.
    2) The new higher prices for EU imports.

    Following a hard brexit, even at current pound rate, the cost of living will rocket due to the fact we import half our food, most of that imported food is from the EU, but there was no deal or concessions agreed to or divorce agreement paid ...that imported food will now logically be at inflated prices.

    You can forget ideas of any kind of US vs China trade war type stand off between the EU and the UK, the EU has all the muscle while the UK has no leverage as displayed in the brexit negs.

    That is just for eu food imports, it's doesn't include all the other EU imports the UK replies on.

    Now we add in the fact that post-hard-Brexit the pound will be very weak against all other currencies, including the Euro, so the UK will be paying these inflated eu import prices with a weak pound, which will manifest itself to the person in the street as a kind of debilitating super inflation.

    You clearly don't realise how much the £ has fallen since the referendum and how little inflation has risen as if you did you would realise what a load of shite you just typed proving yet again you are a full on retard.

    Never, but can't you at least come up with a different tune or is the lack of originality an Algerian- Belgian genetic flaw. I'll go out on a limb here and bet Smeg has told you much the same when you tried yourself out on NTD, hard to live that down i should imagine.

    I have to admit that Chass as being old and demented is not inspiring much

    are you still sharing this moniker with Smeg and the other NTD members?

    speaking of repetitive loons, is Smeg still at it over TD on NTD?

    An excellent retort to Cox's speech from Dominic Grieve.

    I see many are too busy bickering to listen to the debate. Minds made up already? Latest estimate is 113 Tory rebels and defeat of 80-100.

    Ken Clarke is backing agreement on basis it was all well known and harmless to future trade deals.

    Been following it on BBC parliament; nothing new just the same arguments - its not a debate at all but merely an opportunity for individual MPs to go on parliamentary record as to the reason why they voted the way they did - a waste of time and one last opportunity for farcical parties like the SNP to tell everyone they had the solution all along but no one listened - bollocks.

    Corbyn stating Labour will vote against the deal, looks like it could be a big No and maybe a following no confidence vote.

    EDIT

    Corbyn just stated a GE is what should follow if the deal is voted down - but did not come out and outright say he'd call a no confidence vote

    EDIT

    May now and the hag doesn't sound upbeat, think she knew the defeat is gonna be big but the Corbyn statement about all of labour against (right or wrong) has probably twisted the knife.

    EDIT

    well 432 against, 202 for - conclusive - May bleating if Corbyn calls a no confidence vote, debate tomorrow if called

    EDIT

    Corbyn; take no deal off the table, customs union with EU and peoples rights; He tables a Vote of No Confidence - debated tomorrow - there you have it

    - so its now really a political vote along party lines, whips are going to have their work cut out to ensure they keep MPs in line - no real idea where this could go but given the MPs must have known the outcome of this vote would likely yield a No Conf vote, it seems well within the bounds of possibility that the EU in/out downstream vote will override party support and could well see Labour win......
