Brexit: Should the UK stay or go?

Didn't she already "talk with Corbyn" recently when one of the votes failed? What's different now? And Corbyn is just going to say "customs union" and that's not a part of May's deal, so I don't see what's the point. Also don't see why the EU would be willing to grant more time when it is based on this nonsense.

Nah there was no talk. Just May telling Corbyn about her deal and Corbyn walking out. This time she is willing to listen to him.

But yea, the issue is corbyn is going to want custom union 100%. Let's see if May agrees or they think of an alternate plan.

EU won't grant more time but it's both labour and conservative's best interest to reach a solution before EU elections

...But it's important that she not negotiate with Labour so as to not seem weak, right?

Negotiating with the Labour leader in these circumstances - while not ideal - is one of her few options that offer some hope of reaching a deal. You mentioned earlier the possibility of May approaching random Labour rebels who are willing to vote against their party's policy and that would be just desperate.

Anyway, we'll see what happens. I just would be amazed if May told Corbyn that remaining in the customs union is fine. Which is exactly what Corbyn will ask for. But that would outrage a lot of the Tories.

I wonder what are the chances that May promises Corbyn that if Labour votes for her deal, she will then pursue a customs union with the EU... only for May to resign and the next Tory leader to break that promise after the deal has been approved of already in Parliament. That's pretty much the only way I could see a Tory leader agree to staying in the customs union, lolz.

Tories have surprisingly been quiet about this. I think the ones behind May will back the cross party talk. The likes of Boris Johnson and Gove will try their best to turn this opportunity to strengthen their leadership bid. But the thing is, May is past caring about the leadership. She will step down after delivering brexit i think and absolutely no chance she is going into the next election as leader of the conservatives. So she really wants Brexit as something the history will remember as.

The talks between Corbyn and May were promising today. Let's see what happens tomorrow.

4 days to go lads.

Momentous day in the UK

Lizzy should not have agreed to this

These fuckers still here? smdh

crazy that shit like this can happen

this numpty wasn't even elected by the population ffs

we're a dictatorship now, hope people start rioting like they are in Hong Kong tbh

Have to admit, he is far more intelligent than his previous colleagues. He planned this all way before even running for PM.

Anyways, monarchy being anti-democratic and just an authoritarian weapon for Tories is being confirmed.

Marx saw this back in the 1800s.

It's pretty wild how he apparently can make Parliament just disappear for a month x)

I think at this point most Europeans actually wish no-deal to happen, this shit's been going on for too long without any meaningful progress. So, meh.

As a European, can tell you, I still very much want this to not happen at all, I love our British brethren. That being said, no-deal Brexit might be a teachable moment.

Brethren?

Imperial system, pounds, worshipping monarchy, no Schengen, right hand driving, singing about War during international football games, shit food, ugly women, warmongering for the US.

They were always another star on the star sprangled banner rather than European brethrens. Pls go.

Its true and what makes them now the dumbest population in the Western World is how hard they try and imitate the dumbest population in the Western World. They would bend over and drop their pants to be the next US state, which will happen after Brexit. Truly now a population so easily influenced by pop culture. The old limeys must be turning in their graves.

Brexit not even official yet and first casualty is Thomas Cook.

I like to visit UK on vacation, will I need a visa after no deal? smh
