?
  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. Read it again noobie...
     
  2. Farage isn't an MP so couldn't be Prime Minister; he has failed to be elected 7 times.

  3. They have all been recently, but does the PM have to be in the Commons?
     
  4. Sorry, it was meant to be a bit tongue in cheek.

    Though I am not a Tory supporter or any party for that matter, it was just in response to all the slating of Johnson and Hunt. They’re the only choices at the moment so
    It has to be one of them.
     
  5. I love Jeremy Hunt's apology for missing the vote on blocking the proroguing of Parliament.

    Couldn't vote for, couldn't vote against, couldn't abstain ... so he did what any eleven-year-old would do and told us the dog ate his homework.

    This is the state of UK politics.

    If you don't now vote The Brexit Party, you have already given up.

    If you do vote The Brexit Party, you are turning your back on the dartboard and throwing your darts over your shoulder. Given the options, I hate those odds least.

  8. Abso-fucking-lutely, and I use that phrase very sparingly, you know.

    World class typist and journalismist, Carole Cadwalladr, capable of speeds of up to fifty retractions a minute and a Pulitzer Prize winner, to boot.

  10. Working on that desperate reach of association, if Boris goes into and orders a subway footlong, a new tube station will be built, or if he goes into nandos, then the Mexican president will be his new best friend

    I appreciate these doors are closing on the remain hope and it's expected to see such sillyness through desperation on their side as the last bit of the candle flickers, but you can't help but facepalm at some of the tenuous hopes and inferred allegations to try and stop brexit. Still, not long left then we can move forward :D

  11. My take on future events.

    1. BoJo will win the leadership contest and become PM.
    2. He will continue to be a bumbling idiot and be a complete flop
    3. He will win a General election as Corbyn is no competition.
    4. Having lost the GE Corbyn will be replaced as leader of the Labour Party
    5. BoJo will continue to be a bumbling idiot and be a complete flop
    6. The electorate, having had enough of BoJo’s idiotic antics, will vote in labour government at the next election.

  12. Fair assessment with two possible variations.

    he will still appear a bumbling idiot but as his two terms as London mayor and his current campaign has shown, he surrounds himself with very very switched on and capable people and succeeds more than he fails

    Some of those supporting him, I wonder if they view it as the last chance to bury Boris politically through Brexit, as it did with May and at the 2022 election if he loses, he will be gone.
     
  13. Both fair comments. Our prospective Conservative MP, who I was sat next to at lunch on Friday, said pretty much the same thing.
     
  14. Surely all Corbyn / Labour would need to do is be more specific about how they are going to do what they propose ?
