If the plan to spoil an extension works, what are the chances of parliament panic voting for May's deal in the final hour?

Brexit is so infuriatingly stupid that I can't even be entertained by the spectacle from my safe distance. At least the election of Trump is funny in a bleak way, but Brexit bullshit is maddening. It's like someone who thinks red is blue and up is down and the earth is flat arguing with you constantly and refusing to accept all evidence against them, plus your future prosperity depends on reasoning with them.

Is there not a bloke who comes to the car park in a dodgy looking van during lunch break to drop off some tinfoil wrapped sausage rolls that you ordered that morning? What annoys me is that as much as I hate all the pretentious booj trappings, I have coeliacs disease and am obliged to ask whether my food is gluten free on penalty of getting severe shits.

I'll have you note that the Midlands has experienced an unusual upsurge in waffle houses. I think waffles are an important middle ground in being classic enough to appeal to the working class while being continental enough to appeal to those who think themselves better.

Potato waffles are an important middle ground in that you can grill/toast two of them and put a cheese slice in the middle and it's delicious even though it sounds bizarre. Not as bizarre as milk coke, which I still think is a Brum troll.

We'd still have 16 days to talk with the EU, it only buys time domestically. If there's a revocation, that's it. I'd be surprised if the first reaction wasn't an immediate attempt to weld a bunch of poo poo to a50 to avoid the UK in particular even trying any funny poo poo.
