Corbyn would be mad (yes I know) to put his name to any deal, but he has to be seen to be trying. The problem is that if him and May agree to add a Customs Union/confirmatory referendum etc, it can only go in the Political Declaration, which isn't legally binding. The PD is nothing more than a wishlist. With May saying she will resign once a deal is agreed, that leaves it open for a hard Brexiter like Johnson to come along later and simply rip up the PD and force a no deal crash out...

I forgot how young RR was at the time, probably younger than a lot of their fanbase. Good to see Saxa again too...

Last might's votes were never about finding 'a winner', merely to see how the land lies and to filter out non-starters such as No Deal and Norway. Rather than one option being the way forward, I think it's more likely one or two options will be considered, e.g. Customs Union with a ratification vote, likewise CU could be tacked onto May's WA, as could RV, as could CU & RV...

Johnson and Mogg are playing an obvious game, get rid of May and elect an ERG-type leader to negotiate the next stage i.e. Political Declaration, so that they can threaten to tear it up if they don't get their own way, which is their long-term aim. The EU played a blinder last week with the April 12th extension, they could see that the Gov was setting everything up for the EU to be blamed for a No Deal. Now if No Deal happens it will be solely down to the UK Gov...

Ranking Roger...

This is a good example of the effect a successful online petition and demonstration can have... Lisa Nandy on #PoliticsLive: ?My preference would be to leave with a good deal with a customs union and access to the single market. But the PM should know that I would vote to revoke Article 50, before I allowed us to leave with no deal and there are many who feel the same way.?

DUP not playing ball...

Last I heard the ERG jihadists like Baker and Francois haven't budged, supposed to be around 20. Their thinking is that May's deal is worse than remaining. Can't see the DUP backing May either, especially after May yesterday throwing them under the Stormont bus, plus Tory rebels, all adds up to not passing...

It's a false equivalence comparing an online petition with the referendum, if you want a like for like comparison there's the recent online petition to 'No Deal on the 29th', which at the moment has drawn just over half a million signatures. What's interesting about both RevokeA50 and No Deal is how they have become legitimate solutions for each side to get out of this mess, especially when you consider neither was talked about seriously at the beginning. Both are easier to understand concepts and very quick to implement. I suspect the surprise popularity is down to 'battle fatigue', people just want it over and done with asap. RevokeA50's surprise popularity has also helped to 'mainstream' the People's Vote idea, which could be an important factor now that Parliament has to come up with a consensus solution...

Scotland fans having paid ?1 to watch their 3-0 humiliation by Kazakhstan, then sing ''We want our money back''...:)

Leave meaning what exactly?...

I believe there needs to be an SI (Statutory Instrument) passed in the HoC before the 29th that mirrors last night's extension agreement. If passed that will legally replace the existing 29th deadline...

The humiliation is complete. According to YouGov, Piers Morgan is more popular than May's deal. Welcome to our special place in hell...

May was asked is she had a Plan B if the WA didn't get approved, she didn't have one so they've giver her one instead. The national humiliation continues...
