Colkitto Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 UK Government have instructed the Foreign Office to withdraw any support to Scotland's First Minister whilst on a visit to Brussels. No official car etc will be available for the trip. Talk about being petty.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As NS said in itself it makes little difference but it's just another example of the "we love you Scotland, but if you leave we'll absolutely fuck you over" attitude prevalent from English politicians in 2014. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshbairn Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 Brexit groundhog day tomorrow. Labour setting up a binding vote on asking the EU for an extension if there's no deal by the end of October. I've a feeling the EU might just tell them to f**k off this time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More acceptable perhaps, but still not something that is desirable to them. They really want a softer Brexit or a revocation to go through, and will allow extensions to potentially facilitate that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have bigger priorities to deal with. There's a breaking point, but probably not as soon as 31 October, it all depends on the next PM's approach. I have to assume that the PM will be going for a no deal, as the Tory membership will choose a hard Brexiteer (most likely Boris, but will be Raab or Leadsom if they can somehow make the ballot paper at his expense. Javid, Hunt etc have a chance to make the final 2 but won't be picked by the grassroots) but parliament will bind them and force them to go for an extension. At that point they're probably forced to either go for a second referendum or go for a general election and try to win a mandate for the no deal approach. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
