So does this make Hard Brexit the only thing that can happen? Nobody is able to do any kind of a brexit deal because the different parts of parliament hate each other and you've already started the article 50 leave process.

March 29 comes, nothing is done before that date -> Hard Brexit(tm)

The third government defeat last night meant that hard brexit is probably less likely, since it'll be up to parliament and despite appearances most people in parliament don't really want to nuke the country

But this IS hellworld...

It also makes referendum or no Brexit more likely as there's much less pressure on soft/no Brexit conservatives

just so long as whoever is in charge of the referendum keeps no deal off it because that will end up winning

that and putting the sort of rules that were on the scottish independence referendum on it that cameron didn't bother last time because he's a useless shite

If you mean the purdah rules they broke those repeatedly anyway so I wouldn't hope for them to save GB

No it was basic poo poo like online adverts saying who paid for them and the like. Obviously its not perfect as this shows but its better than the poo poo people were being targeted with during the referendum

Some EU courts threw them a bone a week or so back and said that the UK would technically be allowed to revoke article 50 on their own without giving EU members the power to veto it. I don't think anyone in the May government noticed.

THE POSSESSION OF WEALTH IS IN AND OF ITSELF A SIGN OF POOR VIRTUE. AS SUCH:
1 NEVER TRUST ANY RICH PERSON.
2 NEVER HIRE ANY RICH PERSON.
BY RULE 1, IT IS APPROPRIATE TO PRESUME THAT ALL DEGREES AND CREDENTIALS HELD BY A WEALTHY PERSON ARE FRAUDULENT. THIS JUSTIFIES RULE 2--RULE 1 NEEDS NO JUSTIFIC

Fewer than four in 10 Britons (38 per cent) now think the UK was right to vote for Brexit, while almost half (49 per cent) believe it was the wrong decision.

The 11 per cent gap is the widest recorded by pollsters YouGov in a regular series of monthly surveys for the Times, while the number believing Brexit was right is at its lowest and those seeing it as wrong at its highest.

Virtually every poll in the sequence since the summer of 2017 has found a majority believing that the wrong decision was made in the EU referendum of 2016.

Earlier they were saying that the actionable deadline was in October or November because it takes some time to implement a deal. Not sure how much that has shifted.

Wasn't there some article earlier in the year about how he was bored to tears and thinking about jumping back into the arena?

I'd give a lot to watch Corbyn dunk on him, but it's not worth the aggravation.
