Ian Blackford on Newsnight blaming the whole thing on Labour because 14 Labour MPs abstained on a People's Vote. Labour whipped for all three possible compromise solutions and managed to control the vast majority of their 260-odd MPs, and they still get the loving blame.

sudo rm -rf posted:i mean, the us senate is literally structured in a way that makes passing legislation with a simple majority nearly impossible. Oh, for sure we have a worse system overall, that's not in dispute, sorry if I made it seem lIke I thought otherwise. What I meant is more, that even though things are disastrous here, it doesn't have that same sense of flailing about these constant "no" votes are giving me.

almost everyone's still posturing and now may is going to find some way to bring her stupid deal back one more time and hopefully it'll be knocked stone dead again and then you can leave the eu with no deal??? i don't know it's all hosed

Honestly beginning to think May will call an 11th hour GE if her deal is rejected again, it's literally the only option left bar no deal.

It was inevitable this would happen repeatedly is what I'm saying But it's also very very possible we'll just trip over No-Deal in eleven short days

For the sake of my own mental health, the only thing I'm allowing myself to worry about re: Brexit is that a friend of mine is sending their Nintendo Switch to me from the US later this week and it might fall victim to customs if we fully enter hellworld. If I can play Breath of the Wild I can face doom.

Stupidest timeline is May attempting to call a GE and failing.

If it's from the US it should attract customs charges (and potential associated delays) either way? It's not like the US is in a customs union with the UK...

Coohoolin posted:I guess if I get exiled to Switzerland at least the food will be good No, because noone really knows what is going to happen. But seriously, you'll be fine. You have a Swiss passport so can always escape there or to any other country in the EEA if things actually do start going to poo poo. And if this whole shitstorm is taking its toll on you mentally, then just switch off, lose yourself in your work/education/family/hobbies/whatever. Worst thing you can do is get stressed over things that you genuinely have zero control over.

Maybe a VONC would be seem as a sufficiently major political shift for the EU to agree an extension though. They don't want no deal either if there's a chance they can avoid it.

At this point I think they're getting pretty close, especially Macron. So even if May lost a VONC it wouldn't change the default of No Deal, and from the EU perspective there's no guarantee she wouldn't win a confidence vote the week after and we're back to square one. Basically, one or more parties other than Labour needs to whip for an option that isn't their absolute favourite. The SNP moved on CM2.0, but it just wasn't enough. Labour are already whipping for everything but May's deal so they can't go further. It's down to either the SNP to back a customs union or the Lib Dems & CUKs to back CM2.0.
