Originally posted by d000hg View PostI don't think that's true at all. They prefer it to staying but the majority would prefer a GOOD deal. At this point I'm not sure if they would rather a bad deal, no deal, or just any deal!
If no deal is available by end of Oct, 69% of those that voted out would prefer no deal (51% prefer no deal wherever we are by the end of Oct).I am what I drink, and I'm a bitter manComment

Originally posted by Platypus View PostReally? The latest ComRes showed 54% leave 46% remain. Unless you've been reading the New European again. I guess we'll soon find out what people really think in the GE.“Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.”Comment

If they can’t get the numbers to get it through I hope they concede on the referendum and lets just get this done or stopped one way or another.Last edited by dx4100; 17 October 2019, 11:00.Comment

Interesting point though.
So it looks like DUP won't accept it and Labour will be whipping their MPs bloody to vote it down too.
How about, agree the deal, request the extension (blaming Benn) then immediately hold a GE to seek a majority in order to accept the deal?Originally posted by Platypus View PostNot so, according to the news I'm seeing. DUP on board, it believes.
I think it's a high stakes poker game from BoJo and he's hoping the DUP will fold.Comment

Garden gnome Corbyn has also something to say:
Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn said the deal sounded "even worse" than what was negotiated by the PM's predecessor, Theresa May, and "should be rejected" by MPs.Слава Україні! Героям слава!Comment
