      Of course, if Westminster now votes this deal down, that's not Bojo's fault and he can, within the limits of the law, go to the end of October and leave on no deal

      Parliament has been played - they either vote for this 'new' deal, or they get a no deal crash out.

      Nope. The Benn Act specifically says that Bojo must ask for an extension if the HoC do not vote in favour of his deal.
      Down with racism. Long live miscegenation!

        And TBP Ltd’s Director, publicity shy Nige, is now in favour of the Surrender Act As he used to call it because Juncker has said there will be no extension.

          So you believe that if it would possible to Bojo making the decision himself (without legal consequences) he would choose this deal over no deal Brexit!?

            Nige trashes it.

                I was basing it on what he said on Twitter at 15.14 today

                Nigel Farage on Twitter: "So an unelected, retiring bureaucrat says: No extension, take this new treaty or just leave.

                He is overriding the Benn Act. The EU shows itself to be a thuggocracy - power without accountability.

                Appalling people."

                  Sinn Féin seem fairly happy with the deal, if that's any comfort to the gammons.

                    That Boris Brexit deal explained:


                    The Northern Irish will remain in the UK but will have to pay EU tariffs on chlorinated chicken imported from the USA; however, if they send a selfie of themselves eating it to Brussels before crossing the border, they will be able to claim it back.


                    Boris, you are a genius of Churchillian stature.
                    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.

                      ComRes poll shows

                      No Deal : 20%
                      Deal : 30%
                      Remain : 42%
                      Try reading the link, and the reference to the polls. You're quoting completely different stats. I said 'leavers', you've quoted overall preference. FFS <bangs head on wall>
