The Brexit Thread

[Nefertiti2]

but win the customs union one 307 votes to 301

[Tubby Isaacs]

So compared with yesterday, likely Cable and Farron extra, so about 4 fewer Tory rebels?

[Nefertiti2]

Government wants to say in the European Medicines Agency framework anyway. Not much of a defeat.

So why didn't they accept the amendment?

[Tubby Isaacs]

So why didn't they accept the amendment?

Don't know. Letting soft rebels feel they were standing up to the government by voting for that amendment but not the big one?

[Nefertiti2]

Hard brexit. Brough to you by soft tories.

[Nefertiti2]

and the "Labour Party" Brexit rebels. Who consider Brexit prederable to a Labour government The Whips threatened an election if the Government were defeated.

[Tubby Isaacs]

So the government has a mandate to go to the EU and threaten to blow itself up if it doesn't get what it wants. Result.

Nick Watt (Newsnight) says they threatened a confidence vote, not a general election. But yeah the trio of Labour Kippers are an absolute disgrace.

Just watching this Sara cox tv show about rationing. It seems like jolly fun, and there are advantages to an entire nation being put on a calorie controlled diet.

This is the level of intellect Mann has. From the other day.

What interesting times we live in. An unholy alliance of Tony Blair and Jacob Rees Mogg. Both want to create their own cliff edge crisis. Both are big fans of hedge funds and an economy based on financial speculation rather than making things

I think on balance Blair wants to avoid a cliff edge crisis.

No word from Mann on how Hard Brexit helps "making things". But I guess his thoughts are in the ball park of Caroline Flint's.

Irony of ironies. Liberal Democrat no shows saved the government on ERG Brexit amendments last night. ( though same can be said of SNP no shows I am hearing)

No, I don't know why it's an irony either. And the two Lib Dem no shows didn't save the government, whereas his Labour pals did.

Time to actually stockpile some reserves. Need to find something to store water too.

I also need to start thinking about ways to protect myself, i live in a Leave voting shithole and i doubt the natives will blame Mogg and co when reality descends upon them.

I don't think the EU will back down and this whole charade has ceased to be rationnal in any way, the Brexit ultras want their revolution and it will come...

Tories Broke a pairing

At least fucking Kevin Hague and his spreadsheets against independence will mean fuck all when No Deal reduces the UK ”single market” to a barter economy.
