And the thing is, it's within the power of the EU to ensure it passes this time, all they have to say is that there will be no further extensions, it's either this deal or no deal, and if you don't pass it then out you go with no deal. And which of the Remoan MPs are going to vote for no deal ? None of them, so the EU has us over a barrel, they get their money and they still have us by the short and curlies, it's BRINO, and we become their first colony.

    Of course there may have to be a short extension to get all the legislation etc. through, but as long as the EU insists that's all the extension is for, and that's it, they've won. They are intransigent, awkward, self-interested and stubborn, but I cannot believe they will be so stupid as to let this chance of victory slip from their grasp, it just can't get any better than this outcome for them.

    That’s pretty accurate, we’re in a corner in the weakest position known to man, said it many times all the remoaners have done is weaken us and strengthen Brussels

    Speedo Mick rang me last night to say he will be put in charge of Customs Regulations in the Irish Sea. Apparently him and twenty of his synchronised swimming mates are swimming off from the Isle of Man soon to set up Johnson's new Customs post...

    The deal is all but done and dusted, but the media are wondering how Boris gets it through Parliament without the DUP and with Labour and the LibDems opposing it.

    They need wonder no more, the EU have played their ace card, as I suggested above they would. Juncker is saying there will be no further extensions, it's Boris's deal or no deal. Let's see how the Remoaners get round that one.

    Bloody hell, Tusk has spoilt the fun, he says they'll have to consult, it's not down to Druncker. And I suppose technically they can't refuse us one until we actually ask. The seeds have been sown though, I'm hoping Macron chips in something similar to back up his mate, if they make it clear there will be no extension this will sail through parliament.

    "Speaking at a press conference this afternoon, the French President said “I don’t think a new extension should be granted”. Many EU leaders are less than thrilled at the prospect of an uncooperative UK sticking about past October and into the term of the new Commission."

    You can always rely on the French, Macron wants out and no mistake.
