I'm from the land of MAGA, so i'm kinda confused. It seems like the Tories are hosed, with May holding a poo poo deal no one wants and the EU unwilling to negotiate for whatever crazy demands they wanted. Why wouldn't the Tories go and pass off a poo poo situation to Labour, so that they can them blame anything that happens on Corbyn?

So when is Theresa May going to annex Ireland to make the whole backstop issue moot?

So, while both our countries are turning to absolute dog poo poo, we got way too many alt-right / neo nazi groups on our side of the Atlantic. Would you kindly just take Charlie Kirk and the entire TP org? I know it may seem like a lot to take on but Charlie's face is extremely tiny, so space shouldn't be a concern there.

LMAO @ sabotaging the Tokyo deal already

Apparently this was the UK's position:

The differences of position, which the Hunt/Fox letter acknowledges as “challenging issues”, centre around Japan’s refusal to accept a simple “cut and paste” of the terms of the EU-Japan agreement ratified last year.

Remember that the British press is legally required to simmer down the spin and give all candidates equal airtime in the week leading up to a general election, iirc, and it's during that time that Corbyn's approval skyrocketed in the last one. The media goes through a ton of effort to silence leftists to prevent people from finding out their policies. (unless of course they're Fox News and have drank too much of their own kool-aid)

It may be that I'm a cynical American but laws only matter if your prosecuted for breaking them. What's stopping the media from breaking it to prop up another Tory government? Wouldn't the government just ignore it in that instance?

It seems to me that the hardcore group of people who want to leave desire a no deal Brexit for the ultimate goal of privatizing nearly everything and giving their speculating friends first dibs on all housing and businesses that have failed to kickstart an even worse wealth extractive economy.

They desire the chaos and loving the poor over because of the profits it gets them.

You’re right, but they are also the fourth biggest grouping of MPs, and the meeting is about a vote that will pass by single figure votes if it passes. Doing it without him would be counterproductive, however objectionable May and Corbyn find TIG

Isn't the TIG made up of 8 crybaby neoliberals that quit Labour over "antisemitism" then immediately made racist comments on launch day?

Why should they be invited to a discussion with party leaders when it's TIG, which is NOT EVEN A PARTY

I have no idea if that's good or not, but taking no-deal Brexit off the table means I get to delay a project at my job for a couple of years, hopefully until after I've gone to another job :v:

It's the equivalent of Parliament mandating that Theresa May ask the EU for a unicorn. She will certainly most likely go out and make the request, but given that Unicorns don't actually exist it's likely not to be something that can be accomplished
