    O/T:- Is Brexit a dead duck?

    My friend BFP has said from the beginning that Brexit would not happen and it looks as though he may be right. The majority against May's deal is anywhere between 250 and 400 so it's hard to see how that could change.
    Her backers have said that the alternatives are NO DEAL or NO BREXIT. Can't see any living politician with the support to carry through the first so No Brexit is looking very possible.
    Merry Christmas, chaps,

    Yeah, that. But whatever party is seen to be denying Brexit will never get elected again.

    Labour have made a very unwise decision to allow Starmer to have his way, as previously the sitting on the fence policy was working for them. God knows what I would vote if there were a second referendum. What will be on the ballot paper, this deal or stay in the EU? I don't want either.

    If anyone like Sid imagines people will simply forget about it and carry on as if nothing has happened if we stay, they are delusional.

    This^^^.

    People won't easily forget that a decision that was made in a democratic vote was reneged upon. IMO, no deal and the short term pain that will surely follow is looking to be the best option atm, given the alternatives. If there were a second 'sour grapes/losers vote', I would imagine a fair number of people would boycott it, (me included), making it a pointless exercise.

    Well, we all know the second vote on the final deal is on the way.
    Brexit collapsing would be the best xmas present ever. It deserves to collapse, it's been a farce from start to finish

    Doesn't even come close to the Farce instilled on the nation by Heath.
    Treason is still punishable by death. Considering the other accusations lined up against him, it may have been preferable.

    Man was a maggot and the gullible still reside to the lies.

    Do you honestly think any of what you have put will happen? I suggest you look for an alternative Xmas present
