so reading around there's zero chance hard brexit happens now, right? The EU are going to act out of rational self-interest and extend brexit forever until the UK ends up in a customs-union-all-but-officially-EU state?

weirdly poetic that this seems to end in the most boring and yet senseless way possible

brexit... doesn't mean brexit?

Every week the UK has voted brexit and then done brexit in some alternate time line.

Every week, every person, a brexit.

"well what happens if the government no longer has a majority for its core policies in a parliamentary system"

"the government resigns"

"what if they don't do that?"

"well, the house will pass a no confidence motion"

"what if they can't do that?"

"well the PM's party will vote to remove him/her as leader"

"what if they can't do that?"

"well, I suppose that the house could take over business and pass it's own preferred policies"

the thing about brexit, the thing that people keep forgetting, is that brexit means brexit, but brexit doesn't mean "brexit" so people get confused sometimes

Lake district and peak district are nice if you like the outdoors. Uh other than that everything exciting is in London. If people like big lakes and poo poo then yeah go Scotland.

The thing about England is all the cities are exactly the same: Grey, poor, falling apart, just awful. And then there's London which has all the money. All of it. I really don't get why tourists would ever want to go to a UK city.

No. Europe hasn't budged on this until now and it's not looking like it will. It could be that it's only because they need to unanimously agree to give extensions, and not everyone seems to be willing to deal with this anymore.

which one country would the funniest choice to veto an extension and kick the UK into the abyss? I hope it's Belgium!
