I can't imagine how volatile the PLP would get if he was negotiating a deal.
What would the Tories and Labour even campaign on in a GE with regard to Brexit?
My cake is better than their cake.
A remain stance? 2nd Ref? Revoke Article 50? Plough ahead, will of the people?
Would the Tories get a new leader?
Would Labour get a new leader?

Tories with May-give me a stronger mandate for my deal that respects the will of the people and Brexit.
Labour would definitely be about cake until shit hits the party fan and another referendum comes about.
There could be a renegotiation but May would have to destroy the Tory party to do it or form a national unity government, lol.
Basically the Government accepted an amendment to the withdrawal agreement that rewrites the agreement to give Parliament a veto on the backstop.
The EU aren't going to accept this at all. They'll argue (rightly) that Parliament hasn't passed the withdrawal agreement.
It's just meaningless window dressing to get the DUP on board with supporting the government on other votes, and make the EU out to be the bad guys if May's deal miraculously passes and suddenly the EU say no.
"Well we tried but the EU broke their promise"
"Well we tried but the EU broke their promise"
Yeah read this earlier.
Not sure what they're thinking because there's no way the EU accepts that.
Imagine the DUP changing NI laws next year and the transition is over within 30 days.
So they just passed something that completely contradicts what the withdrawal agreement is about, and something that has been extremely exhaustively discussed as being a no go, yeah that EU extension seems ever more likely.
They don't actually get this money if nothing happens right?
We must be minus billions. Even if the bus was true, it wasn't we are ready to piss away billions on this shit that could be better spent elsewhere.
What are the odds that all of those firms all somehow have ties to the Tories?
Sorry, yeah, I get what the amendment does, I just can't for the life of me work out why the government accepted it?
I get it doesn't override the treaty but I don't understand a government accepting it either, it shouldn't be allowed as a political manoeuvre in my opinion.
They've already had money. The contracts expire in April this year with options to renew.
You think companies like Deloitte, Accenture, PwC and Bain would negotiate a contract where there's a risk of them not getting paid?
They'll have had those millions up front, and they probably get double if we leave and triple if we don't.
I'm very pessimistic on this, I know, but I think the no deal is inevitable at this point, and when the world doesn't come to screeching halt in the first few days following Brexit, we'll be bombarded with a series of stories saying "See, we told you it was no big deal." Of course, the ramifications of a lot of these things won't be felt in the first few days.

Is this the idiot that was on the front page of the Daily Mail today?
Was going to pop in earlier and say I had a small tinge of respect* for them naming and shaming one of the racist loons today.
*obviously not ignoring that their previous rhetoric was instrumental in enabling shit like this

Yep. Imagine putting gaffer tape over your mouth when you have a beard.... it sums it up
Why is this prick James Goddard getting so much attention?
Protesting is ok but damn right harassing MP's in a very aggressive manor is not. These are not normal times we are living in.

Because certain sections of the media want MPs to be scared of Brexiters. It's not co-incidence that many have alluded to what happened to Jo Cox.
It's fucking disgusting.
It's fucking disgusting.
These firms are pretty much politically neutral. At least one came out as against leaving before the referendum.
No, that's not how it works at all. They bill for work done, they'll be paid for the preparation stuff being done now but it's never up front
I disagree.
Fully in support of exposing the racist morons harassing MP's - and the subsequent political affilitiations they have.
Edit: I should add that this doesn't mean I want them popping up on panels or anything.
Not entirely true. If they were smart they would have known that the government are desperate and sold them a block allocation of time ahead of when it was necessary.
We've done the same thing with clients when approaching busier parts of the year. Reserve our hours now, or risk not getting us at all.
Then you've not been paying attention. The implicit threat is clear. Go against the will of the people, risk the consequences.
I'm not talking about that fuckwit, or others that have been identified over the last few days. I'm talking about the constant media coverage since the vote.
Yep, thought there might have been a crossed wire there - my bad.
Whenever I hear John Bercow speaking, it makes me think of Cassius (David Hemmings) from Gladiator: https://youtu.be/HNOdrJA8V88
Isn't that just domestic policy and not worth much beyond her getting replaced?
I hope it doesn't woo anyone on the labour side.
