So what does this mean? No brexit, renegotiated deal, or what? I know the EU isnt gonna let us just throw ourselves off a cliff as they said they're willing to delay article 50 for us to get our shit together
if brexit goes through, it goes through with a negotiated deal. No deal is off the table for now if mayhem doesnt do anything in the next 3 days.
Her deal is rejected, EU has said it won't be renegotiating any major points and we're meant to be leaving at the end of March. Either no deal or no brexit are now the most likely.
Right now there is going to be a no confidence vote tomorrow.
Someone needs to send her a postcard with that badly drawn ‘u tried’ or ‘an attempt was made’ star on the front.

Although, the EU probably expected this because they've been laying the groundwork for extending the leaving period up to July, I believe.
effectively parliament doesn't want a no deal with leaving the EU, but also they also absolutely hate may's deal with the EU.
May called for a vote of no confidence on herself. This is some advanced tactics.

Speakers banter is top notch.
She should have resigned due to this 230 against her, so the big deal now is her not doing so ontop of this thing tanking. So the no confidence is actually reasonable, but I can't see it going through fully.
Whatever else she's done, it's all irrelevant. Nobody will remember, or care, about anything else she's ever done. The only thing people will remember is that she first fucked up the Tory majority with a completely unnecessary election, and that she's now responsible for the single biggest political defeat to ever have happened in the UK.
no way the no confidence will pass unfortunately. the DUP will still back the govt and no way will tories vote against the party.
I hope to god this means brexit is kill.
No confidence seems like another colossal waste of time in two years of wasting colossal amounts of time. It's almost like throwing Corbyn a bone to stop him getting overexcited. An election won't give a satisfactory result - this country should never hold an election that is so bent towards one issue voters again. That's what referendums are for, if we insist on being all democratic about it.
May should have resigned after she called an early election after the Referendum and lost her majority. She's fuckin' digging her heels in but the reality is she's probably the least-worst Conservative candidate for PM right now. Otherwise you've got people like Johnson, Rees-Moog and Leadsom who are so much worse.
More to the point why the hell did May not step down, she hasn't made one piece of effective policy in her tenure. Possible candidate for most pointless PM ever.
If the government wins the vote of no confidence then the only other viable solution is a second referendum. I wouldn't put it past May to run down the clock and ask again without any changes though.

The question was perfectly well written - the problem was the campaigns.
Lmao, as soon they moved on to the topic of energy conservation everyone got up to left. "On the the motion of energy conservation, say 'Aye!'!" -stream cuts out-
If another Referendum is called and it ends up being something like 49/51 again they just shouldn't fucking do it. They shouldn't have done it in the first place and here we are.
The fuck did Ramsay McDonald try to do to get fuckin murdered like that in 1924?
Lead a minority government
Lmao, due to the schedule in parliament tomorrow, immediately after Prime Minister's Questions and before the vote of no confidence, MPs will spend 10 minutes listening to a proposal to ban low-level letterboxes
Did that have anything to do with the global recession after the first world war? Germany's Weimar Republic also suffered from massive instability due to it.
What do you mean by "No Deal Vote"? I thought this was about May's deal but there's been so much stuff i'm not entirely sure what's going on anymore.
Whoops I misread
It's another Bercow ploy? Half the ERG members will fall asleep and miss the vote.
