Hard Brexit or Hard Brexit

The ones that matter do agree.

How would they get it through parliament, being a minority of a minority?

If Corbyn supports a "No Deal", he will be out on his ear.
If he supports May's deal, he will be kicked in the arse.

His only option is to call for a new referendum, since a general election will be disastrous for Labour.

Interesting times

Because Scot feels that the entire nation is defined by the ERG.

No I dont but they have a lot to say in the tory party which at the moment is still holding on to power.
The simple fact is that the May deal is the only one available. Dont take that then you have no deal. You seem to think there is still space to manoeuvrer in. Remember all this has to go all through all the parliaments and councils before the 29-3. The only option then is to cancel art 50 letter. If you think that will happen without any ructions then you will be very disappointed. All this talk of a referendum is a red herring. Do you think the EU will just hang around further? Time is up. You have had two years.

Your hatred shines through every post on this subject. Not nice.

What hatred? Just reposting what people are saying.

With glee.

Let's start a thread on what doesn't work in the EU and laugh and point at it shall we?

There are many options. Most likely is a stay on the implementation of article 50, maybe subject to a revote.
It won't hurt Europe to give the Poms time to come to their senses.

Apparently, we need to be 'taught a lesson' though, so they'll ignore what's good for them as well as us.

The only punishment you will get is self-inflicted.

There goes that mind set again. I suppose you can’t help it.

Cross-party move to stop the clock on hard Brexit.

Senior Tory and Labour MPs are planning to force the government to delay Brexit by several months to avoid a no-deal outcome if Theresa May fails to get her deal through parliament in January, the Observer has been told.

Cross-party talks have been under way for several weeks to ensure the 29 March date is put back – probably until July at the latest – if the government does not push for a delay itself. It is also understood that cabinet ministers have discussed the option of a delay with senior backbench MPs in both the main parties and that Downing Street is considering scenarios in which a delay might have to be requested from Brussels.

One senior Tory backbencher said: “I have had these discussions with ministers. They will not say so in public but of course the option of a delay has to be looked at in detail now. If we are determined to avoid a no deal, and the prime minister’s deal fails, we will have to ask to stop the clock, and that will give time for us to decide to go whatever way we decide thereafter.”...
