May needs 320 out of 639 voting MP's

The TV screen will go all squiggly and then someone will tear May's face off to reveal Cameron underneath and he will say, "And I would have gotten away with it too if it wasn't for you pesky kids"

I’m going to get a shopping trolley and fill it with toilet rolls and peaches then hit The Road heading south towards the sea. I hear there is a sanctuary there.

Its quite sad how this thread has petered out, especially when the events of the last few days have been so incredible.

For me watching the stuff on TV has made me really quite angry.

The long and short of it, is that a minority of people who lost a vote, have managed to engineer the country into believing that everyone who voted for Brexit is an idiot and wasn't worthy of their vote, and so it should be ignored.

If that was the case I could go with it, but just as many "stable and intelligent" folk voted out and therefore the majority wishes should have been respected.

We have all made mistakes in life, and we all have to live with them.  This is a classic point in case.

Even voting for Brexit was predicted to see a financial collapse, and we would be a 3rd world country long before now. None of this has happened.

Other countries cope quite comfortably without being a part of the EU. Its been a disgrace that this has not happened.

I am directly angry at Teresa May. She seems to think she is the reincarnate of Maggie, but has none of the skills that Maggie would have utilised to ensure we got a deal, but this womans single minded stubbornness has put the country at loggerheads.

She wanted so desperately to be THE one that sorted it, and now she is reviled almost everywhere, and to me, its all she deserves.

The worst thing is, as poor as she has been, God knows what mess Corbyn would have put us in, and it now seems a matter of time before we get that clown at the helm.

God help us all. This time I think we will see blood on the streets.......

high class discussion between brillo and mogg now on bbc2.  Brillo enjoys these challenges.  There are not that many mp's now who actually must feel like hard work for him.  He crushes most of the junior snokflake/metoo types

"The long and short of it, is that a minority of people who lost a vote, have managed to engineer the country into believing that everyone who voted for Brexit is an idiot"

If that's the case the minority must be brighter than the majority.

Lol JCorbs won’t meet to discuss constructive solutions unless No Deal is off the table

Err how do you negotiate a better deal with the EU when you give them all the leverage JCorbs?

You won’t discuss solutions for the country JCorbs?

The fella is a mess
