chass, you piss soaked old pensioner, I appreciate your thoughts about me, but nobody is listening to you, and why should they, you are a frigging isolated loon
What's caused all this animosity between butterfly and Chas thought you were brothers in arms both being lovers of ladyboy cock?
As expected, May's government survived the no confidence vote. The result was 325 to 306.
The Maybot calls for a 10pm speech outside number 10....and it's content free, leaving the press fuming.
Brexit is in tatters and is in need of someone who can lead the UK out of this mess. She is too bruised and battered and hopelessly lost.
^ nonsense, control your hysteria.
So, Labour have rather blown their chance at taking down an extremely weak Conservative government. While May is holding cross-party meetings (which she is only doing for face; she won't be listening to anybody, but then again she doesn't need to...), Labour refuse to attend unless May takes the Leave on 29th off the table. Of course, she can't do that because: 1) it is British law to leave on the 29th May, "deal" or "no deal"; 2) the EU has stated that it will not extend the negotiating period unless a "deal" is close to being completed. The Libs and SNP are falling into the same trap - basically, all 3 parties are saying they won't talk with May unless she breaks/changes British law and offers something that the EU has stated repeatedly is not an option... While this works fine for the SNP and Lib Dem voters, it will not play well with the huge number of Labour voters who wanted (and continue to want) Brexit.
Davis, Dom and the Moggmeister are just going about bringing forward sensible plans for a managed leave on March 29th because that is exactly what we will be having.
The EU have overplayed their hand, and as long as we keep on the current path to March 29th then increasing voices in the EU will be panicking... Happy Days.

...France's parliament on Wednesday adopted a law on emergency measures for Britain's exit from the EU. The law provides for extra customs officers after Brexit day and a temporary rule allowing Britons employed in France to keep their jobs after March 29 even though they will no longer be EU citizens...
...EU Brexit negotiator Michel Barnier said the bloc is stepping up preparations for a "no-deal" departure by Britain...
...German Chancellor Angela Merkel said there was still time for further Brexit talks...
&, here, something that is never gonna happen, but shows how focused some EU partners are on keeping trading and people movement ties with the UK: "Varadkar said if May's government is willing to shift some of its stated "red lines" in negotiations – such as exiting a customs union and leaving the single EU market – then the position of EU negotiators would also change."

A cross-party motion with ideas on the way forward is already being drafted to be debated in the house. Bercow has given his word that it will be put forward, probably next week. One of the debating points is to vote whether no-deal should be removed. If voted on and made statute, it will supersede current law.
Corbyn giving May the snub was childish in the extreme and should cost him leadership.
May and Corbyn out of the way might be the best start to finding a solution that a majority find suitable.
Just listened to Tom Watson's speech last night. Ouch!
The irony is, that if she had won on Tuesday night then the DUP would have sided against her and she would have lost the vote last night.“432 to 202 – Mr Speaker that is not a mere flesh wound. The cruellest truth of all is that she doesn’t possess the necessary skills, the political skills, the empathy, the ability, and most crucially the policy to lead this country any longer.”
How many times has the witch been dunked now?
What a circle jerk.
Not a great supporter of dictatorships but they do have their pluses.
Yes, Britain will be the bigger loser for now.
As for do we need them, the critical issue is what happens when the EU visibly cracks. Nothing so big as the EU can implode without consequences, and this will trigger a tsunami to hurt not only Britain but much of the world.
So yes we needed them before, and as trading partners we could have gone places. But full political union with integration of diverse forms of gov, economies, legislation, languages, infrastructure, cultures and more, controlled and supervised by unelected and ideologically driven power freaks is something that just isn't going to happen.
So keep on fiddling while Europe burns, because it's already smouldering and needs us and our money more than we need to stay on a sinking ship looking for someone to blame.
I think we should elect the Belgian, he's fully devoted to getting us out.
TM has played a blinder by getting JC so upset he is refusing to talk to her, unless she gives up on no deal.
No deal is her perfect back stop. As long as she keeps no deal in play, she has the trump card in her hands. Even Juncker is softening his stance, and member states are prepared to listen, because they have no other choice.
It doesn’t mean she will get the deal the country needs, but it does mean the right people have to listen. If it all goes tits up, she can blame Corbyn and Labour for refusing to listen/talk. Win win.
Doris doesn't need to speak to Corbyn, she just needs 100 or so non Corbynista mps to back whatever shit she comes up with next. Most Labour mps want to ditch Corbyn so they won't miss an opportunity to undermine him.
