It's all tits up. About 3 hours I would have said that most ERG members would accept it, rather than face the possibility of an extension, referendum and no Brexit. And god forbid, a Corbyn government as well. Juncker's just given them the hope of no deal again, so they will now be weighing up whether they can safely vote it down and wait for us crash out. Or whether there would be a last minute extension and the very set of circumstances they do not want. Decisions, decisions.

That would be undemocratic of them.

But as leavers do own democracy...

It is ok when in the name of brexit.
 
To be fair to Johnson has actually done what most remainers said was impossible. He’s reopened the withdrawal agreement and got a deal much more in line with most brexiteers.

If mps vote against it, he will use that against them and say they are against any deal/ the people
As I catch-up - I am expecting to eventually get bored of reading Remainer posts as they man up to acknowledge they were wholly wrong

Certainly hope so after some of the shit that was given out and the absolute certainly expressed that the EU would never reopen the WA
 
It's incredible isn't it.

As a lifelong Labour supporter I can only speak for myself. I have switched to Lib Dem as they unequivocally oppose Brexit.

I see posts on here saying Labour MPs will commit electoral suicide if they don't vote for any agreement, whereas I think the bigger threat is from people like me.

Time will tell.

Fully agree and this is backed up by evidence. The polls show that the average Labour voter lives in a leave area but voted remain and would be even more likely to vote remain in future. T

Just ask a few on here , they already are included on the travelling draft of the agreement.

I think some of them have editing rights as well.
There were some of them confidently calling the outcome out with great certainty months ago and throughout

Turns out it was complete bollocks - but it was at least highly confident complete bollocks - which is better than tentative and uncertain bollocks.

Maybe I am just getting frustrated as I go through page after page - and yet not a single Remainer with the character to 'fess up'
 
Remain turning on Juncker now..."its not up to him for an extension".

Farage moaning about how the Benn act is being undermined.

Brexit is a funny old business.
 
Get your Euros bought before parliament votes it down on Saturday!
I have indeed just transferred money to a euro account ;-)

I will be happy if I make a small loss - doubt it though

TBF - I had to do so anyway;-)

No it doesn't.

If the EU don't grant an extension, we're out, deal or no deal on October 31st.

The Benn act compels the PM to *ask* for an extension. We cannot compel the EU to give us one.
A lawful extension. The argument would be made that only that passed by the HOC is lawful and in the light of recent decisions it would win.
