May has surpassed herself this afternoon with her new offer.

Pass her WA deal then you can pass legislation that means you can kill it off in a second referendum.

Not even mad now. Gone beyond. Bemused is perhaps the best way to describe it.

And almost looking forward to seeing how a future drama-documentary is going to play Mays role in all of this. Is she cunning? Is she pathetic? Is she insane? Is she a secret agent for the Labour Party? Is she Lady Macbeth?

British politics has had numerous through the looking glass moments of late but today beats them all.

Beyond comprehension that a Conservative leader would seemingly destroy her own party and for what ends?

Populist seems to be the remoaners insult of the moment having superceded gammon

We'll see on Thursday whether your so called right wing populist has caught the mood of the country and if the results of the election show that an exit on WTO terms is what is wanted then parliament either has to carry out our wishes or else risk a descendant of Guido Fawkes finishing off what his relative failed to do 400 years ago

You will keep hearing it until you start to recognise that it is true. Whilst you might have voted to leave without a deal, you are not all those who voted and not even all those who voted leave. We (not you) voted in a Parliament, and not a government, and whatever they finally decide is what will actually happen. That's the way it works in the UK.

For the avoidance of doubt any comments in response to a previous post are directed to its ideas and not at any, or all, posters personally.

The moment Cameron agreed to the vote in 2016 the seeds were sown of the split of the tory party along pro or anti EU lines. Its demise is soon at hand.

I still think May might come out years from now as a Severus Snape style double agent, who is deliberately fouling this up at every step, to ultimately destroy brexit.

Think of the position she is in though, and you can see this was all fairly predictable really:

1 - She knows without concessions and new benefits for every group opposing her (DUP, labour, lib dems, ERG, Grieve and co) that her deal is utterly dead.

2 - The deal is dead anyway, but she also knows parliament will not shoot itself in the foot along with the whole country and agree to a no deal crash out therefore she has to flog a horse which is not only dead but the funeral has been held and its been cremated already, with the ashes scattered at Aintree.

3 - She knows another vote is the only way out but she wont advocate for it and "own it". Doing it this way she can blame others for the fact that ultimately there will be another referendum.

Trump lost. Badly. Hahahahahahaha.

Congress don't impeach on what is actionable. They impeach on "high crimes and misdemeanours". The bar for that is much lower and is set by them. They hold a POTUS to account if he strays from the high standards expected and not just on legal culpability.

If that doesn't happen then there is plenty of straws in the wind which suggest Trump will be deep in the brown stuff after he leaves office.

For the avoidance of doubt any comments in response to a previous post are directed to its ideas and not at any, or all, posters personally.

More pointless word play from you and frankly I don't care what happens to Trump after he leaves office.

I'll leave that to the sados to worry about. Stop boring us with Trump stuff on the Brexit thread.
