A satisfying moment is soon coming up where all the remainers in the cabinet will resign because they are about to lose their departmental jobs. The Tory party is about to do what it should have done years and years ago and start to reflect its grass roots.

Not saying we dont owe £39BN but without a deal there would be no mechanism in which to hand it over, so we should withhold on it until the EU comes up with a decent offer. Having recently become aware that the UK has 3.9m EU migrants, and the next closest in Germany on 2.4m. We should also change the narrative on freedom of movement. We have embraced it more than any other EU nation, and until they match us, we should be permitted some kind of restrictions on moment.

So the Brexit Blockers won the vote. How satisfying for them. This is totally irrelevant because if there is no deal by the 31/10 then please correct me if I am wrong but it’s then a no deal. On this subject, all the EU have to do is sort out the Back Stop and it’s in their court to do this. This will almost certainly then trigger an agreement in the HOC with the likes of Grieve, Cable and Gauke giving their wholehearted support.......hold on wait a minute!!

It actually is starting to resemble 'deal or no deal' the TV show. There's a few boxes...which one are you going to pick...what's in the box. Ring, ring...and then up pops a banker to make an offer last minute....what a surprise. Personally I hope Johnson tells him to sling his hook.

I have been keeping a close eye on the betting odds now that Bojo is about to mix things up. They make for interesting reading. They all but rule out the chance of a second vote and yet infer that people think that it's 'slightly' more likely that Brexit will happen in 2000 rather than before the end of the year. I guess that means that there's still quite a strong belief that there will be an extension and further discussions with the EU. Odds of Article 50 being revoked are NO 4/11 YES 5/2, which is surprising to me really so personally I'd all but ruled that out. An election could be on the cards though, of course so that's likely factoring in.

And I don't get surprised very often, as the hooker said to John Holmes.

Hmm, yes I've just now looked and odds of that are about even money, so that explains the other Brexit related odds. A scary situation as these elections can be unpredictable, but at least it's another shot at getting some kind of unassailable majority instead of this endless deadlock sh!te. Boris vs Corbyn is at least a contest somewhat reflective of the parties they represent, whereas May vs Corbyn wasn't.

Brexit: MPs back bid to block Parliament suspension - [Link] I wonder if this will have any practical impact on anything. Too early to say I suppose.

Saw the tail end of the Newsnight interview with Dominic Grief last night. He said that the problems that we are in at the moment are because of the Article 50 being triggered too early. He may actually have a point here but the Government having started it and him being a Conservative MP surely he should have done everything possible, given his considerable experience (ex Attorney General and QC) to assist in getting the best negotiated deal in line with the democratic vote. Instead he has seemingly used this experience to run a separate agenda intent on blocking Brexit ("BB" If anyone else saw the interview was he asked what he has done to help the agreement get done, if so what was his answer? I doubt given that it was a BBC (Brexit Blocking Corporation) programme he would have been asked this. Also, when he was asked would he vote for the Conservative party in a General Election he said it "depended what the manifesto said" ....there's loyalty for you and a defector about to spring off the blocks!

Some people make errors in what they think is the percentage chance is with odds on a result or likelihood.,
