    Isn't it humiliating for a nation like Britain to go cap in hand to the EU and beg for an extension? Not being able to carry out a process that was known 2 years in advance. They could reject the request which would be even more humiliating. Proud nation no longer :(

    How incompetent are our government (and MPs!).

    reality check. should be one of top 3 and probably the top 2 at the heart of the whole.thing but abdicated it long ago and took the line to stand well to side.

    Probably been covered previously but I can't believe May seriously thinks she can go back for a third vote on her deal, farce doesn't even begin to cover all this. I wonder if she's thinking vote on it enough times and eventually she'll get the tiny majority she's desperate for. If only referendums worked like this as well, for the remainers anyways

    Nigel Farage will lead a march from Sunderland to London in protest against attempts to “betray the will of the people over Brexit”.
    The March to Leave, which has been organised by the Leave Means Leave campaign, will begin on Saturday in the north-east city, the first to return a vote in favour of exiting the European Union on the night of the 2016 referendum.
    It will then stop off in towns including Hartlepool, Pontefract, Doncaster and Wellingborough before arriving in London on March 29, when a mass rally will take place in Parliament Square.

    He’s only doing the photo opportunities, he’s skipping most of the actual walking bit.

    He’s been charging gammon £50 a head to be part of the main group.

    He’s also going to get dogs abuse and a number of any Brexit groups will be reminding him of some of his lies along the way.

    all it may do is reveal the actual divisions.

    the ones thry say prevent second referendum but not a 3rd or 4th vote

    Thankfully he's avoiding York. Gammonball Run: one long pub crawl from one town's 'Spoons to another. What is the maximum distance for a mobility scooter between recharging, I wonder?

    We have reached an impasse. Can't re-vote for the same deal, EU won't re-negotiate, No Deal voted down.

    Only two options:
    1. Stay, only responsible option
    2. Another referendum, Stay or No Deal (Mandate would over turn the MP's vote)

    they will send may to Europe and threaten no deal and eu will laugh.

    the reality is a non binding vote said no to no deal.

    the law says we leave on 29th march with no deal.

    there is no impasse until the law changes.

    we are staring down the barrel of crash out.

    the one option is an extension with referendum for deal v stay...in they but again that will never pass in parliament.

    right now the defacto position is crash out on 29th with a global financial.crash thereafter due to exposure to UK financial.markets.

    Or crash out with no deal, which will NOT happen.
