O/T DDay for Brexit..well sort of...

[Exiletyke]

Tend to agree. I think it is clear that as long as there is change, the EU will push back time enough for a new idea to come forward from MPs. I don't think MPs are going to swallow the No Deal threat. Otherwise the EU would have said leave next week with no deal if May's deal doesn't pass.

The real threat is if the MPs still can't unite behind an alternative, with even still splits being between Common Market 2.0 and 2nd vote. This could still hinder a consensus - either could be even less popular than May;'s vote. Hence the real frustration that we didn't have indicative votes when we should have done. A failure of both of these options to gain a better consensus than May's shold have left to us reasonably leaving with May's deal. But we didn't so it's all ****ed up!

You seem to overlook the EUs desire to keep us in
No deal means no x billions & the burden to make up what we would no longer pay would fall mainly on Germany & France & Italy [Italy already up the creek without us leaving]
No deal was always the default position so why do you refer to it as a threat as it's not as though someone has recently made it up
