What does anyone seriously think they are going to do? They could all vote UKIP en masse next time out but honestly it'd just kill off the Tories for the most part so I'm having a hard time worrying about it. I reckon you'd see more attempts on MPs' lives. Even May's rhetoric yesterday played into that. Which isn't to say that should stop us from doing the right thing, obviously.

Christmas Tree 3997 Posted March 21, 2019 Author Share Posted March 21, 2019 Seems to be a feeling amongst journalist that May is increasingly resigned to no deal (if MV3 falls) and that 2/3 of cabinet agree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewerk 26391 Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 And would the other third resign in order to collapse her government? Surely that would be enough to force her to give power to the Commons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the lunatics have won then? You must feel such a proud tory as you watch Nissan say sayonara. The very reason you originally said you'd vote Remain all those years ago.

I don't think the executive can be bypassed that way because they have control over binding motions. She has to be removed with vote of no confidence, can that happen? Even then there isn't time now.

Dr Gloom 19826 Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 i hope. a lot of people who i work with, and whose opinions i value, are seriously starting to shit it over the prospects of no deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She would be fulfilling the will of the people in her eyes with plenty of handy scapegoats when it doesn't go swimmingly, including the people (they voted for it).

Renton 17797 Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 I don't think she's got a cat in hells chance of getting MV3 through either after last night. Massive chance of no deal now. And ironically, a hard border in Ireland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renton 17797 Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 Just listen to her comments of a few minutes ago. She ain't revoking A50 under any circumstances imo. She's fucking insane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No deal will destroy the country and the Tory party for decades to come, as well as the reputation of the leader who oversaw it. I don't think she wants that as a legacy, no.

Gemmill 34503 Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 Mind, at this stage they all have to claim she'll go no deal cos it increases the chances of her deal getting through. It's beyond disgraceful that these cunts would dare hang this over us though. This should be the end of them (it won't). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think there is some of this going on in truth - she's got the EU to come forward and start saying it's her deal or No Deal now as well. This really is now Project Fear.
