NotThePars Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 I dont know why corbyn even bothered with the confidence vote, given the DUPs hatred of himI thought it was the prelude to a reluctant backing for another vote but people more ITK than me are claiming it isn’t. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Detournement Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 The weird thing is the DUP would have been up for a No Confidence Vote if the deal had passed. Btw note no one is talking about a 70% majority. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BFTD Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 Absolutely remarkable how many politicians are still claiming that the EU has to agree to an improved deal with the UK. HAS to. Not to do so would be a disaster for the EU that they WILL NOT allow to happen. They're going to agree to what the UK wants at the last minute. They are. They absolutely are. It's going to happen. It is. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jambomo Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 I'm not sure. He's got a popularity that may never had. He's not a complete trump-like moron, he just sometimes acts like it. I think that’s worse. He’s Trump with half a brain, just enough to plot his own route but not enough to understand the consequences of the things he’s saying and doing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UsedToGoToCentralPark Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 With the DUP, the conservatives have a majority of 327 to 323, is it really that mental that a couple of conservative MP's vote the other way?7 sinn Fein MPs don't take their seats so it's a bigger swing than that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suggest the market believes that no Brexit is becoming the most likely option. I wouldn't have thought so, more likely a softer deal with a softening of red lines or a ref2 is what they're thinking. Along with an extension of A50. P.S. Probably mainly the inevitability of kicking A50 down the road for a bit. The uncertainty has been counted in for ages.

I always figured Salma Hayek would make her move as the clock ticked down on my wedding day. You can imagine my shock when she was, presumably, held up in traffic. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as Article 50 is concerned, we're at one minute to midnight on transfer deadline day and the UK have just realised that the fax. machine isn't plugged in. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy Jean King Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 Parliament slaps May about tonight, now Corbyn gets his kicking tomorrow night and come Thursday morning we will be where we were last night. It's a shite state of affairs right enough. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's already been talking about the "deep state" subverting the will of the British people. The worrying thing is his Trump lite act could win, more likely than Corbyn's dithering all things to all people act anyway. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
