She has to take the full brunt of the blame to be an effective scapegoat and earn her reward.
I just saw this, how is it going? Is it good?
Same time tomorrow!

Can anyone say, "The 2017 election was a massive mistake"
Same Bat-time, same Bat-channel.
This is the only real question about the next 24 hours, what does Corbyn do after May wins the no confidence vote?
well the official party line is to back a 2nd ref after a GE is off the table so considering party line has been followed thus far I suppose it's a given.
don't see how that helps anything or increases our chances of a second ref though, at all. the party remains in opposition and even if Labour somehow campaigned on ref2 polls show support for a labour backed ref2 is a marginal increase at best.
main thing is if they fail to get a general election (which seems highly likely) they switch to supporting a ref2, But the ref2 would need a majority in parliament and not the number of voters for labour.
Ref2 would probably boil down to "do we stay in the EU, or do we go with proposed deal to leave EU" as no deal is out of the question.
If the vast majority of Labour MPs lined up behind a second referendum, we know they would be joined by most of the other opposition parties and at least a handful of Tory MPs, so it's entirely possible it would get over the line, although I'm not totally clear on how they would go about actually getting a bill through parliament without government support - possibly by stripping the government of control over Commons business as has recently been rumoured
Im guessing the best option would be to get a general election going but no confidence vote Corbyn and get someone else. Start everything from a fresh point and kill this bloody thing off.
He's enough of a silly twat to do something like this.
He's already fighting against his own party because of his eurosceptic views, he just needs to bite his own ego and shut up honestly.
I sort-of voted for him but now he's making me disillusioned with himself and the whole party, and I'm more loose than most in my views so I can't imagine how fucking isolated a lot of Labour voters are.
Lol everything's a mess, I don't know who the fuck to support anymore
Barry Gardiner (shadow trade sec) on Newsnight just admitted they don't have the numbers to oust May
Just like my ancestors before me it's gonna come down to who I want to see git tae fuck, rather than who I want to get in.
so uh what happens now?
No deal Brexit, no Brexit, or they delay Brexit.
Which one returns the empire?
Can anyone give a good summary of what's going on to a highly confused American? I thought I had a good grip on what was going on but I'm totally lost now. Feel free to explain it like I'm an idiot and I'll just skim over any parts I already knew.
From what I understand
Mays "deal" didn't go through with the rest of parliment, the vote for support was heavily one sided with may losing to a record breaking vote that will go down in history as the biggest loss in parliment
back to drawing boards for may, but the majority of parliament are calling for a vote of no confidence (basically trying to sack may from PM), debate to be held tomorrow
Thats all I get from all this, I don't think anyone truly knows whats going on anymore
Completely ignores the cancel the whole thing option.
Which would be the most likely option if parliament does take control.
I thought you were bullshitting, but no, we are truly entering a dark period of prohibition

I thought norway was never on the table because the EU refuses to do it.
Apparently Corbyn is more likely to announce VONC 3 than EUref 2

Of course he would avoid a 2nd ref, he doesn't want the options to change.
Why are the leaders always the ones who don't want to do the sensible thing?
