According to this scenario then, the UK crashes out of the EU at 1100pm UK time on March 29th, unless Madame May revokes Article 50 minutes before the hour is struck, has her letter of resignation ready and sticks two fingers up to her party who have in recent months given her the two fingers. I think I would approve of that outcome.
Trouble is Ides, have you seen the rest of her cabinet and party? She’s the least worst of a very bad bunch mate.
If she revokes Article 50 at the last minutes and does a Cameron, that will be brilliant, surely? The Tories in disarray and fighting amongst each other. Bring it on. I want to see that party split down the middle and the ERG members forced out by moderates for inflicting the Brexit disaster upon us.
If you want to have a vote on this wretched business now we know what's actually on offer, now the unicorns promised by Vote Leave have vanished like a silent fart in a breeze, please consider attending the People's Vote march next Saturday.

I went on the last one (as did others on here); the march helped to move a second referendum from something mentioned only in jest to something being taken seriously.
I went alone last time - it was a good day surrounded by kind, generous and gentle people in extremely good humour, so don't be afraid if it's just you. In fact, if you're going alone, I'd be happy to meet up for a breakfast somewhere or other.
It's probably our last chance to try to get this utter ****show stopped.
If you go and help to push Parliament to give us a say on the deal then I can say, without any sarcasm, that it will be a ****ing triumph!

Alternatively, go for a walk with the Gammonball Run, the pro-Brexit march walking some of the way to London over the next two weeks to arrive on 29th March. (It'd be great if they arrived exactly as Article 50 was revoked but I won't hold my breath)
This was yesterday. They've mustered 55 people today!

It would appear that despite his latest ill judged comment, about non recent child abuse investigations being money “spaffed up the wall”, Boris is still the golden boy for 4/10 Tory supporters.
I think the second most favoured is Gove.
What a choice. Buffoon or bully.
Hugely impressed by NZ response to mosque attacks
Hugely embarrassed by lack of minutes silence for victims from FA EFL EPL

Just about sums up the whole farce. Whip up a frenzy and get people to believe your bullshit, then **** off when they start looking for something real ....
Just over a week to go .....
Johnson's plan was never to win the referendum - that's why he wrote two separate essays for the Spectator - Johnson wanted to lose, but not by too much. That way in 2019, when Cameron packed it in, he could appeal to the zealots in his own party with propaganda about "standing up to Europe" and so forth then ride an election victory before anyone had a chance to realise what had happened.
Gove is more competent than Johnson but he's also incredibly callous. He was awful in Education. Even the Tory supporting teachers couldn't stand him. He's done a better job in the Environment department but that's like saying a mild prang is better than an eighteen car pile up.
Jacob Rees Mogg is worse than both. An opportunist who has put all his money off-shore and hopes to make a killing if we fall off an economic cliff crashing out of Europe without a deal. Given that the Tory grass roots are fervently patriotic (for a specific vision of "patriotism") I wish they'd haul him over the coals for this. Come to think of it, a heck of a lot of problems in all of the parties could be solved if all MPs had to put their funds into a blind trust that could only be invested in the UK. That way if the UK does well, so do your stocks and shares, if you balls it up, you're in the mess with the rest of us...
So it looks we'll have to live through another episode of Game of Thrones. Enjoy the show, but don't look outside the tent or you might see the country going to the wall.
France’s minister for European affairs says she has named her cat “Brexit” on account of its indecisive nature.
Nathalie Loiseau, the French’s government’s lead in EU exit talks, told Le Journal du Dimanche that her feline friend meows loudly to be let out each morning, but then refuses to go outside when she opens the door.

Bercow has said that May can't bring back substantially the same bill for a third vote tomorrow.
As that was clearly her intention, we are currently at a point where either Article 50 is revoked or we Crash Brexit.
And as it stands, by the action of international law we leave with no deal a week on Friday at 11pm.
What a ****ing triumph!

which one will create the best civil war? Meanwhile, here in Serbia, the riots are progressing nicely with the right wing taking over the left wing protests. I have an inkling that humans are pretty ****!
Humanity really is losing the plot, right across the globe.
The U.K. is certainly having it’s own self imposed crisis, but compared to just about every where else, it’s actually not that bad.
