Which Corbyn somehow managed to turn into an own goal. His continued ability to shoot himself and the party in the foot, given even the tiniest hint of an opportunity, is remarkable.

Once again, we’re reminded that someone with aspirations of winning a General Elections doesn’t seem to have even the most basic idea of how to play the games successful politicians need to play. All he had to was turn up, participate, then spin the meeting as just another Tory driven waste of time; with Labour the only adults in the room. And he couldn’t even manage that. Instead it’s him that’s being perceived as behaving like a child. What an incompetent tool.

Yep. Poor optics for Corbyn

Are we pretending that Chuka is a relevant politician now? He's just another Blair clone, no thanks.

Indeed he's not relevant, which is why you shouldn't make him relevant by having him be the reason don't attend what is (in terms of optics at least) an important meeting.

Would anyone have criticised Corbyn for attending a meeting where Umunna was present? How he decided to leave the meeting when that would only see him ship more pointless criticism, I have no idea.

No but I think it was an attempt to humiliate him, and everyone in the room would have known what the PM had done.

Given that it was a signal she wasn't serious about agreeing a way forward, he obviously judged it was better to leave. He played himself.

Anyone know how she plans to get another vote when the speaker has refused bringing the same vote again?

She could change/amend the "standing orders" - essentially changes the rules. But that requires consensus in Parliament.

Or she could end this parliamentary 'session' and start a new one - but that's controversial as you'd essentially be using the Queen as part of a political manoeuvre.

Corbyn was an idiot to turn up in the first place but even more so to leave.

The fake outrage that something would have come from the meeting though :lol:

Not seeing any outrage. Just bitter dissapointment, which is all Corbyn has offered on Brexit.

If she has enough votes to get her deal through then wouldn't she also have enough votes to set aside this protocol?
 
It's as though they think if they tell the people they will feel betrayed enough, the people will believe it.

Not for millions who voted leave in the UK. A £39B leaving fee, no guarantee of a Trade deal, you must be joking.

The only possible way out, other than a no deal, is the cancelling of A50 and this despite, all the bluff and counterbluff, has been the true situation since day 1 after the referendum.

Will our MP's 'seize the day'?

The Withdrawal Agreement is an agreement to withdraw from the EU. That is exactly what the millions who wanted to leave the EU voted for.
 
"Parlaiment has avoided making a choice", they've made a fecking choice you bint, twice so feck off
 
She's blaming parliament for her mess. How will that change anything!?
 
That right there is a woman obsessed with legacy, trying time and time again to create momentous speeches...that have been pointless
