I've seen a lot of flowcharts over the last few months but I don't think they have been representing what has actually happened very well.

I know May's deal is terrible and bad but given no deal has pretty much been the only alternative for months I admit if I were British I'd want Labour to vote for it. I know that's bad politics but I seeing estimates like no deal will cut 6% of GDP growth in the following 12 months. You are on the brink of inducing a recession worse than the Great Financial crisis for no reason. Like I know it sucks that the British public are being held hostage by racist maniacs but you still can't just shoot the hostages yourself.

you can and should and the hostages will tell you the same

Well, one of the things they specifically voted against was no deal, and her majority is literally five MPs. All they need is the DUP or the Tory tiggers and two others or the ERG to flip on her.

i know this are dire times but perhaps preparing your stockpile instead of engaging in fantasy is a better use of the 2 weeks remaining

i think, heavy emphasis on think, the EU would give a longer extension if a GE was called rather than demanding it be held before the 29th

Labour members are more likely to flip than DUP. DUP want no deal brexit because it reinforces the glory of the empire and secures Northern Ireland's future within it.

Am I correct in guessing the idea of revoking article 50 is not even on the table, because it would solidify the view that the UK is weak and needs the EU ?

I suppose there is the actual, genuine issue of ignoring a democratic referendum, and pissing off 17.4 million people, were they to do the actual smart and sensible thing and revoke.

On the other hand, lol
