Everyone told you so. It has not ended yet, and as much as you like to deceive and say that nobody voted for no-deal, that is not true. People voted for a deal and if a deal hasn't been found within a two year period we should leave with a no deal. But what I can say without fear of contridiction (yourself excluded of course) is that no one voted for these pointless extensions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry BasilB in my haste I've tarred you with the no-deal nutter brush when you are nothing of the sort ! Because in the real world there are more colours than black and white - anyway looks like your new champion Boris is looking to sell you out to keep his skin (who would have thought that eh ? ) with a backstop tweaked Brino so it's time to support Nigel and the Brexit party for a clean break Brexit if you still believe in this no deal nonsense. If Boris brought the rebels back in , whipped the ERG at gunpoint , ignored the DUP and reached out to others in parliament like Stephen Kinnock who is making the right noises he would have the support of a lot of folk who just want this over without the pointless destruction No Deal would bring. It's really the only option left and we have the Rebel Alliance to thank for forcing his hand. Here's the withdrawal agreement - it talks about good faith not war. https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/withdrawal-agreement-and-political-declaration Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would love know to what you base your evidence on, when the only two options on the ballot paper was remain or leave, the electorate either voted leave or remain which wouldn't give you any indication of what they were thinking at the time of placing their cross, so by saying nobody voted for a no-deal is purely imaginary.

This mess gets worse by the day. I just wish they could agree to any bloody deal, just to get this disaster behind us, so we can all move on, with the Pound and Euro hopefully making some form of recovery. Whatever they agree to and whenever that happens, currently it's only about the exit of the UK out of the EU. The work on the trade deal and the future of the UK/EU will happend after that. That will keep the UK busy for years. And I am sure the UK citizens will argue about it for the next years... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlexRich Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 Now that Boris Johnson doesn’t have to dance to “Come on Arlene” the obvious choice is to isolate the backstop to NI, use the political declaration time period to work on credible “alternative arrangements” and then move on with his domestic agenda, which, as much as I dislike him, looks like a vote winner and a much better alternative to Corbyn. He also needs to reinstate the whip to the rebels. It’s obvious what he needs to do. The last thing he wants is to be the shortest reigning prime minister in history.
