Mister M 1,625 #3469 Posted February 25, 2019 (edited) I never thought it would have (IF I believe what you write on here). It would affect lots of other people though. Potentially millions losing their jobs, homes, marriages and all the social breakdown that comes with it.....Still as long as 'I'm alright jack' then that's all that matters.

She has lost the plot and is giving in to the mob MPs like Flint are under deliberate sustained daily pressure from knuckleheads in their constituencies, organised from the right. And also from Hard left Corbynist nutjobs. Edited February 25, 2019 by I1L2T3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

At the end of the day , these MP`s are just partaking in a self preservation exercise , because they dont want to be booted out at the next GE by constituents annoyed by them ignoring their wishes to leave the EU.

T'old Steptoe has really shot himself in the foot this time. A life long EU critic, he has now changed his mind and decided to assist in trying to stall Brexit. How many of the 17.4M who voted leave - are Labour voters ? What a complete balloon he is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

He did what he always does. Dithers for ages to gauge public opinion and what would be most likely to get him into power, and then eventually goes with that, even if it means a contradiction of past positions. It's a new kind of politics, which is strangely very similar to the old kind. Edited February 25, 2019 by WiseOwl182 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Some of their leave voting constituents I would describe that way yes. Not all of course. But there is a very active campaign to pressure those Labour MPs, some of it coordinated by the ERG.

I should imagine there is enough pressure from their constituents without the ERG feeling the need to wade in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

May has just announced that MP's will get to vote on both and extension and ruling out a no deal exit (if her deal gets rejected again) I'm quite interested to see how this pans out now, if no deal is removed completely then I feel many of the more vocal Brexit supporters might lose their voice.
