Theres a lot of speculation, second guessing, hopes, fears and some blatant lies (no names mentioned) going on here. Let's just see where this week takes us.
I just had to turn off CNN as the presenter who was discussing Scotland said "The entire nation voted to remain"

Of Geoffrey Cox and Theresa May, he says: “Like Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden they have sewed an apron of fig leaves that does nothing to conceal the embarrassment and dignity of the UK.” Mr Johnson says he "cannot accept" Mr Cox's assertion that there is "a minimal legal risk that we will be trapped in the backstop", adding that the deal "sets us on the path to a subordinate relationship with the EU". "This deal has now reached the end of the road," he says, adding that there are broadly two options: to leave without a deal which is "the only safe route and the only path to self respect", or take a route that will lead to "humiliation". "We must not rule out no-deal," he says, adding that delaying Brexit "would achieve nothing".
Totally understandable Col. If I were a leave voter I would feel the same. Forget a deal, that was never on the voting card was it? How any leaver can claim that's what they want is beyond me.
No way mate, if it came to it you wouldn't vote leave again? It was always going to have many twist and turns. At the end of the day they wouldn't dare try and change the law/constitution. It won't happen, people won't let a few MP's turn us into a banana republic. Don't get confused with voting down a 'no deal' to keeping us in. Two very different things.
Agree. People like Cooper and Boles would need 24 hour armed police protection. When it comes to it the MP's will bottle changing Laws.
I voted leave and I very much want a deal, but one that reflects actually leaving. Anyway mate, around we go in circles again.
Joey jones has just said the last thing this country and Eu wants is new MEP's. He said can you imagine the people they would elect to represent our country? Imagine Tommy R or some guy who wears a bucket on his head getting elected? It would happen.
I really don't, which is why I said that I think the ruling elite will suffer a huge backlash when this is finished for not doing what was promised in the referendum. Yes, I'd vote leave again. I repeat my view that this whole thing will be fudged and we'll end up not leaving or with such a weak deal that we may as well stay in. It's a ****ing joke!
