He'd better, it's just insanity to motion the same thing over and over.

But yeah I won't be surprised if he doesn't, I give up on this loving country - if we leave and gently caress it all up over time, I'm moving back to Australia.

It always amazes me that god felt it fair to spare nigel farage in a plane crash, and then decides to casually killed like 170 other people in plane crashes involving, on paper, much safer planes.
Perhaps the 170 should have done a deal with the devil.

Yeah, but canning 4 Cabinet Ministers and many more on the government payroll would surely also be the beginning of the end for this government.

So they'll just pretend to do nothing

One thing that honestly I find baffling is the suggestion that having a second referendum would be undemocratic blah blah blah, yet May seems determined to have her poo poo deal voted on as many times as it takes to go through. The hypocrisy of the whole thing is absolutely beyond staggering.

This line came up in the debates earlier and unsuprisingly the govt response was *posh braying noises*

so now the question becomes: is bercow going to say no to the MV3? he's indicated that he might

by god i hope he does it'd be beautiful

he'll almost certainly allow the mv3 + extension vote, it is substantially different even if that substance is contextually meaningless. If it was today and May had gone with "revoke a50" for tomorrow she'd probably have spooked the ERG

instead the ERG are saying they want her head over a vote that won't happen that they lack the numbers to swing

It is 2074. Biodiversity has crashed. War and rebellion ravishes what remains of Earth's former nations. The sea has risen 30 m after the disappearance of the polar ice. From her watery pulpit, Prime Minister Teresa May imposes an eight line whip on the briny bones of her MPs.

Not sure you know what a hard socialist is.

Nothing in Corbyn's plan proposes ending capitalism. More's the pity.
