    Unfortunately, Theresa May dropped all the cards she was holding

    Nothing sad about having that novel, it’s a proper work of literature. Moore has disowned all film versions of his work and I reckon he is right to.

    Watchmen was a pretty faithful adaptation, he might be a genius but Alan Moore needs to get over himself a bit.

    Probably for the review thread.

    There’s a big vote on in Lower Slaughter parish council tonight apparently.

    Bloody hell did I just hear Adam Boulton on Sky saying "May has had 2 years and cocked it up and People didn't vote for a hard Brexit"? What a tw2t.

    May defeated by 230 votes. She has indeed cocked it up.

    I suppose she's done the equivalent of running a Marathon off the edge of a cliff, all rather pathetic really...

    May should have resigned after the General Election, to lose her majority for no reason was a clear indication she has massive lack of judgement and everything she has done since confirms this, she couldn't have f*cked it up more if she tried...

    He should be worried tonight because by law we leave on March 29th. Only Government can stop it and it doesn't look like that now.

    What annoys me are people like Justin Greening who want's a losers vote but rules out a GE. Only thinking of herself.

    How many Tory MPs would vote for a deal involving permanent membership of the Customs Union? 100 plus? That is Labours official position, all of them except for the 3 hard core Brexiters would vote for it, plus SNP etc and possibly even the DUP, as it doesn’t isolate NI (gets rid of the border problem). It’s the only version of a deal I can see there being a majority for in Parliament.

    If May agrees to putting that in the Withdrawal Agreement the EU will say yippee and there is no need for elections or second referendums etc. We can all breathe out and get on with it.

    If we end up with a deal I strongly suspect that it will be softer than the one voted down tonight.

    Fancy a little side bet we’ll still be an EU member on March 30th?
