Only Theresa May could actually arrive at "the worst of all worlds"


She surpasses herself :)

If this is true and there are the numbers, then she will have to face a vote of no confidence...


She would win it as there simply aren't enough Brextremists to defeat her, but the much bigger problem she could face is if they then start voting against her in the HoC. Labour have already said that the Chequers deal doesn't pass their tests. The big irony in all this is that the Brextremists are now relying on the EU to reject the deal...

I wish to pay tribute to David Davis. He was a fine man and saved many goals for us Welsh back in the 80s when he was known as Dai. His political career however, did not match his goal keeping.


I'm sure he'll now travel out to Russia to give his much needed advice to the England team and as a Welshman I appreciate that.

there is no principle at stake here except some analogue of a dr. strangelove plan for self preservation and the procreation of the species in their own selfish likeness. No one here has the good of the people of this country at heart. laid bare before us - but will we take note or dismiss is as more theatre and turn our back on further political involvement?


The rats in my shed have more honour than these people

All the wailing and gnashing of teeth from Brexiters is quiet breathtaking. They won the vote to leave the EU and it looks like that's what's going to happen. Still they're not happy. Are there any circumstances at all under which they would be placated I wonder?

For many of them I doubt. The vitriol and hatred on social media is astonishing.


Now, I know that?s Twitter etc, and not to be taken entirely seriously, but I do feel it?s noteworthy how many people see this as a deliberate attempt by May to destroy Brexit.


Personally I think they?re deluding themselves on many levels, but I wouldn?t ignore them. Right now there seems to be a lot of anger; mostly to me it shows just how many people are willing to crash out on a hard Brexit? As well as demonstrating the folly of letting each individual think they can define Brexit.

    • This week's edition of The Briefing Room I found really useful and impressively informative on the training aspect.  David Aaronovitch has come a long way since his University Challenge day. 😉  It's available to hear online or download as mp3. https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m002n7wv In a few days time resident doctors -who used to be known as junior doctors - were meant to be going on strike. This would be the 14th strike by the doctors’ union since March 2023. The ostensible reason was pay but now the dispute may be over without more increases to salary levels. The Government has instead made an offer to do something about the other big issue for early career doctors - working conditions and specialist training places. David Aaronovitch and guests discuss what's going on and ask what the problem is with the way we in Britain train our doctors? Guests: Hugh Pym, BBC Health Editor Sir Andrew Goddard, Consultant Gastroenterologist Professor Martin McKee, Professor of European Public Health, London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine Mark Dayan, Policy Analyst, Nuffield Trust. Presenter: David Aaronovitch Producers: Caroline Bayley, Kirsteen Knight, Cordelia Hemming Production Co-ordinator: Maria Ogundele Sound Engineers: Michael Regaard, Gareth Jones Editor: Richard Vadon  
    • That was one that the BBC seem to have lost track of.  But they do still have quite a few. These are some in their 60s archive. https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m0028zp6
