It was blocked in the sense that 200+ Labour MPs voted against the deal.Only 34 Conservatives voted against the deal. I know this aritmetic but this deal never been a commitment or approach from Labour and clearly a suspicous deal which does not address Leave appetite. I would only blame Labour for supporting triggering Article 50 before roadmap is unclear.

What can the UK offer to secure a long extension? A general election or new referendum would be significant events. But revoking article 50 is the only thing that is still in the UKs power.
Give it a rest, not going to happen

Leave march today in Parliament Square. 95% middle aged and old white people. That aint representative of England anymore. I would be a bit embarrassed if Tommy Robinson was addressing one of the crowds supporting my side of this fiasco. He is entitled to spew forth his racist and small minded vitriol, but its pretty depressing stuff to listen to. I am not accusing anyone here on these pages, but we need to get real and accept that many people who voted leave did so out of xenophobia and racism. The fact that this is a primary motivation for many who voted to leave, doesnt sit well with me. How about you Brexit fans, how does it sit with you?
Trump lost. Badly. Hahahahahahaha. |

As it's irrelevant, ill-informed nonsense it doesn't sit anywhere.

Yes indeed, the very people who believe in integrity, moral standards and the keeping of one's word - all the things that Parliament has just thrown away...... but it's ok, the younger (and varied ethnicity) contingent were there too in Facebook, Twitter and Snapchat.

Groan....I disagree with everything you said.....Not really getting why you seem to think it's off for a crowd of mostly white males to complain about something...not that they were all white or male anyway. Anyway you're a bit late to the party on these issues on the board. We have kind of have discussed Robinson a lot.....I included him in the thread about civil liberties....but is there anything to talk about from today other than you don't like him or people supporting him?

The average person in Britain is White and 40 years old so you are also deluded.

The fact that you dont recognize that some people who voted for leave, did so for reasons of racism, is deluded. Just wondered if anyone here had a problem with that, and I guess the answer is no.

Was a bit of a p*ss poor turn out though wasnt it, after a million people marched for remain. I do wonder what will happen if and when a peoples vote is held - but I dont think its good news for Leave fans.

And Willo is always respectful, if almost always wrong.
