Just keep kicking the can further down the road. Eventually, everyone will forget about Brexit. :p

In all seriousness I actually think deep down none of parliament want to leave because they're sh!tt!ng themselves of the consequences if they do and no-one wants to take responsibility. Even the ardent Brexiters.
 
Steve Baker, deputy chair of the pro-Brexit European Research Group lobby, says in a statement:

“This must be the final defeat for Theresa May’s deal.

“It’s finished. And we must move on.

“It has not passed. It will not pass. I regret to say it is time for Theresa May to follow through on her words and make way so that a new leader can deliver a withdrawal agreement which will be passed by parliament.

“This has been a tragic waste of time and energy for the country. We can waste no more.”

The ironic thing is that in my view this is the hardest Brexit the UK is likely to get outside of a no deal - any renegotiations for an alternative deal will inevitably be much, much softer. Even if there is a 'Brexit' PM they will simply not be able to get a harder Brexit than what is currently on offer.
 
The SNP are slimy cnuts. They argue for UK being part of the European Union whilst they actively pursue leaving our union. They’re a bunch of hypocritical cnuts.

Not really - they want to remain in the EU - be it if Scotland remains in the UK or if they become independent. So it makes sense for them to vote for remain.
 
I do not understand the desire for another referendum. How can you trust an electorate who themselves can't agree on what exactly they want?

I'm not saying I agree with their position, but those 2 positions don't contradict.

Because there is simply no other way out of this. Put May's deal to the people and tell them it's either that or remain. MP's then implement whatever they vote.

I also would be against another referendum - it's unlikely to solve anything and will perhaps make things even worse.

And the DUP actively pursue leaving the EU while arguing for maintaining the Union.

Swings and roundabouts.

Well, no one is brave enough to just revoke A50 without another referendum. It'd be undemocratic or something.
 
Soubry calling for the WA to be brought back to the House with the Beckett amendment (Confirmatory vote) with remain as an option.

That would likely get it through to be honest. Then we'd have to pin our hopes on the birtish public, who I've not got too much faith in at the moment
