?
  1. Full Brexit with "no EU deal" on the 29th March.

  2. Request Extension to article 50 to allow a general election and new negotiations.

  3. Request Extension to article 50 to allow cross party talks and a new deal to be put to EU.

  4. Request Extension to article 50 to allow a second referendum on 1. Remain in EU or 2. Full Brexit.

  5. Table a motion in parliament to Remain in EU WITHOUT a referendum.

  6. I don't know or I don't care anymore

Results are only viewable after voting.
  1. I don't think you can appoint a new PM in the timescale that postponing Brexit would allow. I suspect its more likely we will have a General Election.

  2. Is the reversion to the earlier Union Flag without the red Irish cross deliberate?
     
  3. The Tories can change leader within a few weeks, the extension could easily be 12 weeks.
     
  4. The eu have announced within the last hour that they are sending a new brexit negotiator to Britain as the last one, Mrs May, has let them down

  5. So a general Election is much quicker than changing a PM in your world :thinkingface:

  6. only if she steps down, the no confidence vote that she won recently meant she was safe for a year. Even if it went to a general election, Corbyn wouldn't be the one to put Labour back into power, he is now too much of a poison challice
     
  7. No PM will be able to withstand the full weight of the party, and certainly not one as weak as May - especially if more Ministers resign over the forthcoming vote or publicly annouce they are voting against her deal.

    I wouldn't be betting against Corbyn yet.

  8. I'd be happy with a General Election, let them all nail there colours to the mast and see who gets in, Labour are going against the majority of there voters, it would be interesting as Brexit would take center stage.
     
  9. Loz thinks this is hilarious or at least droll. It’s hard to know which. It’s also hard to see why.

  12. This was the timescale when Cameron stood down.
    5th July

    The first ballot of Conservative MPs is announced. The candidate with the fewest votes will be eliminated.

    7th July

    Another vote is held. Voting will continue to take place every Tuesday and Thursday until two candidates remain.

    July-August

    The candidates spend their summers campaigning. Votes are given to party members.

    9th September

    The result is announced, just in time for the Conservative party conferance on the 2nd of October.


    Bear in mind that any contest is likely to be very bloody and there are many candidates who would struggle to gain the support of the Parliamentary Tory party, probably including Johnson.

  13. Of course we all know the Forum poll is the most accurate, but here's the latest from those other blokes at YouGov.

    Q. Britain is currently due to leave the European Union on the 29th March. Regardless of what you’d like to happen, what do you see as the most LIKELY Brexit outcome this month?

    Britain will leave with a deal on the 29th March 12%
    Britain will leave without a deal on the 29th March 19%
    Britain will delay the Brexit date and not leave on the 29th March 49%
    Don’t know 20%

    There are obviously not enough old Ducati riding blokes answering YouGov questionaires. I blame the young folks & the EU.

  17. That's what Tusker and Junker want, they're hoping to kick the can down the road forever.
