what even is the deal other than "Not SuperCanada", ofc

it'll be the norway deal that's supposedly been on the backburner for a decade or so, with a few key word changes so they can claim it isn't some off the rack garbage like what a riff raff would sign

e; 106; 106 dead tory MP's would not be enough dead tory MPs for it to be the best possible day in UK politics

0.000% of Communism has been built. Evil child-murdering billionaires still rule the world with a shit-eating grin. All he has managed to do is make himself *sad*. It has, however, made him into a very, very smart boy with something like a university degree in Truth. Instead of building Communism, he now builds a precise model of this grotesque, duplicitous world.

Probably a nice time to remind your local Labour MP that voting to support this deal is a career-ending move.

Unfortunately it probably isn't. If they support it and succeed they'll be the heroes of the right and the wingnut welfare might be better paid tha the labour party.

Though the nice thing about the UK is we do occasionally just dump people into the bin of history and it's very satisfying.

They can be deselected by members now and I can't imagine a situation in which an MP survives their CLP if they help both pass Brexit and avoid an early GE.

Even Kate Hoey has found an excuse to not vote for this, you got to be insanely brave or stupid to do it and that leaves pretty much Frank Fields.

Oh no obviously they'll be hated by the labour party but I suspect the right wing cunts might be gunning for lucrative careers outside it.

The far-right loons benefiting from wingnut welfare hate this deal, too. Or did you miss Rees-Mogg and the DUP's grandstanding?

Backing May on this one curries favour with nobody of significance.

wait, is this something that's been changed in the past couple of hours to appease the DUP, or am I reading it wrong? surely they'd have to go back to the EU to make any changes at this point?

The leaked details is a UK wide customs union light with some kind of annex relating to NI rolled into the general deal relating to maintenance of single market regulations in NI as a broad backstop (that again only kicks in after the transition if no new trading deal can be negotiated)
