It'll pass, but that google doc sheet showing all 19 labour MPs who signed the letter for a deal voting for it is over the top IMO. Be 8-10 labour MPs voting for it, and it'll pass by a handful of votes.

"Well, you see, a No Deal Brexit has always been my greatest fetish....WORRY. Yes. Worry. Always getting them mixed up." --- Also, quelle fuckin' suprise: quote:MPs will not see any official economic analysis of the impact of Boris Johnson’s Brexit deal before they vote on it on Saturday, Downing Street has confirmed, with such documents only being produced subsequently.

the DUP are against it, it's dead in the water Joris needs every single Tory (which he won't get) plus all the ex-Tory independents (which he won't get) plus some Labour votes (which he will get but no more than 4 or 5)

How hard is the "Labour is risking no-deal Brexit by voting against the deal" noise going to grow? I reckon there's a large number of people that are not properly informed and rather scared at the same time, and they can be easily swayed by this kind of rhetoric...After all, both the EU and the government had reached some kind of consensus at this point.

EU and govt had reached an agreement a year ago with May. It's good that both Keir Starmer and Hilary Benn have set out the reasons why the Johnson deal is crap. One might hope that the BBC and 'sensible' papers report the reasons. (And I will wake up a sylph-like figure tomorrow in my dreams).

If any deal passes he doesn't get to satisfy the inferiority complex that drives him. (USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST)

^^^ did I miss a rule change?Julio Cruz posted:the DUP are against it, it's dead in the water The Tory rebels on May's votes were the ERG, who are indicating they'll vote with the Government on this. The ex-Tory independents overwhelmingly (entirely?) voted for May's deal and are very much on the "stop no deal" platform, which suggests they'd vote for this deal You've a lot more faith in continuing PLP unity (especially in the absence of serious threats and with the ever-escalating public sense of wanting it to be over) than I do. Not least since there are multiple reasons why any given Labour MP might vote for it, up to and including "there's a good chance this will gently caress Labour at the next election"

Grey Hunter posted:Yeah, this is going to be closer than Mays vote, but I doubt it will pass, the press is playing it up, but that's to sell papers/get clicks. Unless there is a good number of Labour defectors, then we should be back to plan A - extension then crushing the Tories. I think it'll do even worse than Mays deals did, any pro-remain MP just has to vote against the Boris deal to get the best chance of a second referendum.
