Are we nearly done?
I still can't work out whether May has been lining this up from the off or to take it at face value. A campaigning remainer fucking it up, or a thoroughly decent person trying to appease everyone. Either way, she has handled it pretty terribly.
Previously saying no deal is better than a bad deal, many - and right across the remain/leave spectrum - saying it is a 'will be worse off' deal so a bad deal, and she is now saying effectively 'my (bad) deal or no deal' makes me think there are plenty of twists and turns to come.

Yeah, I don't anyone would have come out of all this smelling of roses. Getting sick of Corbyn and his contrarian rubbish. He's had no bright ideas himself and if Labour weren't really into Brexit he should have done his bit at the time as he did fuck all to convince Labour voters to remain.

I'm suffering from Brexit fatigue as the British press is calling it. I call it being at my fucking wits' end.
I just wish they'd fucking get on with it. Screw the deal, just go. You wanted out, well you know where the door is.
I'll be applying for my Spanish passport ASAP and then I can forget all about the UK for ever, and good riddance.

We could leave with the deal or leave with no deal, or if they vote against the deal and vote for another referendum we could still remain. If we do leave then there will be a few more years of setting up the trading deals for the future. Unfortunately, nowhere near being done.

How do you make a Brexiteer woman pregnant?
Wank on her feet and let Paul Nuttall do the rest.

All Labour seem to want to do is shout down anything to block it so they can pursue their own agenda of forcing another GE. They have no chance of getting a better deal, when asked Corbyn doesn't actually say what he wants apart from a deal for workers and our economy type shit without giving any details. The deal on the table seems ok to me, no freedom of movement, ability to create our own trade deals, still able to trade freely with the EU, wont be paying in £b. As far as I can see, any EU laws we would have to follow are just about food standards and goods we trade with the EU. If we drop out of the EU with no deal and want to export food to the EU we will still have to meet their standards. eg crop based foods arent grown with EU banned pesticides etc. When the media ask the public about why they dont want the deal they keep saying the deal doesn't let us take back control of our laws we have to follow EU laws, if we hit the backstop, they dont actually say which laws in particular they dont like.

It's all kicking off in the Tory party...vote of nbo-confidence in May triggered. I suppose it was only a matter of time.
What a mess....this just plays into the hands of Corbyn & Co...

Pantomime season has certainly started early this year hasn't it?
You must be in a similar situation to me Beefus, you live in Europe don't you? (I mean real Europe)
I spent the first 6 months of Brexit worrying about what the consequences would be for me as a British person in the EU, but I have spent the last few months thinking that I really don't give a fuck what happens to the UK and how glad I am to be out of it.

Clipper, yep I'm in NL...been here since 2002. I like being in mainland Europe....makes travel, and my bike trips in particular, a doddle! Don't know if I really want to go back to the UK (I'm 55 now so retirement is not too far away)...

Tonight's vote of no confidence is a 2 horse race. There is a clear favourite at the bookies. If politicians are going to start fucking around and wasting time in the current environment you would expect the result to be close, or strongly in favour of a no confidence result. I read somewhere that a possible reason is they want chaos so we run out of time before March 29th and the no deal is defaulted to.
