I think a very long [Permanent?] extension is more likely as that avoids confronting the dilemma that there isn’t really a compromise between ‘Leave’ and ‘Remain’ of only half leaving. Until they actually commit to an action they can keep both sides hopeful and [Relatively] “happy”!
Can't see them simply revoking article 50 but a second vote and an extension are getting more likely now imho. Ie passing the buck back to the electorate.
Be interesting if we had a second vote and the result is still leave If we decide to stay the Brexiters will demand a third vote
Politicians are more stupid than I thought it they want a GE I can't think of any worth voting for, surely Corbyn can't think he has a chance of winning one ?
They can’t wait longer than 5th May 2022, but it could be a lot sooner if the Cabinet insist on replacing TM as PM. She’s already gone on record that she won’t lead the Conservatives into the next election.
It’s like the principle of a school asking the children if they’d like the rest of the year off, yeah, all the kids get excited and can’t wait for term to end, then slowly the realisation of of their childish actions come home to roost. The principal was wrong at beginning for suggesting such futilely. Makes for great debate though!
I can see a GE on the cards if they go for a long extension: fresh mandate from the people to do something/anything?
A second referendum will probably have the options of ‘revoke article 50’ or ‘leave with this really shit deal’ I’d be surprised if leave with no deal was an option.
The idea that MPs are in place to fulfill the 'will of the people' is nonsense even though the Brexitards keep repeating it. Its never been true. You elect your MP based on his views and those of his rivals in any election. If you don't like his views then don't vote for him. He/She isn't there to do what you want.
The referendum asked the voters if we wanted to stay or leave the EU can't remember there being a option of leave if the deal is good or stay if the deal is bad I believe the public is generally pissed off with Brexit and have lost interest in the subject and just want to get on with there lives A GE would just be another fcuk about who of the present lame brain twats could form a credible government God we need some decent statesmen if Thatcher was PM there wouldn't be the decent in the Tory ranks
I suspect you meant dissent TT but it appears your phone is aware of the situation and entered decent instead, ie there isn’t anyone decent enough in the Tory ranks
Why bother having GE’s then ? I thought the idea was you voted for the party who promised to do what you thought was best for the country. If they’re not going to do that why vote.
