Brexit: PM suggests backstop will not be removed from deal


Theresa May has said she wants changes to the controversial backstop but suggested she is not seeking to remove it from her Brexit deal.

In a speech in Belfast, the prime minister restated her "unshakeable" commitment to avoiding a hard border after Brexit.

Mrs May said the backstop's "potential indefinite nature" was the issue.

No-deal Brexit threat to 40 trade deals, says CBI

The UK risks "crashing out" of 40 trade agreements spanning five continents in the event of a no-deal Brexit, a business organisation has warned.

The CBI said there were "hugely damaging implications" for the UK if it had to leave trade deals it has through its membership of the European Union.

It said many firms did not know relationships with customers "across the globe" were at risk from a no-deal.

Oh the horror, the doom! FORTY trade deals, FIVE continents. Be scared, be very afraid! Or actually you know what, you can take your project fear and you can shove it.

A no-deal Brexit has been a possibility from day one. Infact that's what should have happened in the summer of 2016 anyway. Where were the warnings about these 40 trade agreements back then? Why is this only making the news now with less than two months before Brexit is due? Well we know why, it's less to do with informing people about so called risks and more about using their project fear ammo selectively.

Greg Clark says real deadline for Brexit deal within next fortnight

Greg Clark, the business secretary, is giving evidence to the Commons business committee. As my colleague Dan Sabbagh reports, Clark said the effective deadline for a Brexit deal was within “the next couple of weeks” because exporters need to know what is happening before they despatch goods on a six-week sea journey to the far east.

Some journalists are interpreting Clark’s comment as meaning the real deadline is Thursday 14 February, when MPs are due to next vote on Brexit, or the day after.

I'll have a settler with him in a phone box if he wants winner gets Brexit.

She (May) just needs to come home and ignore the lot of them. Give them a few days of being ignored and they might start dancing to our tune a bit more.

Brexit: MPs may not get vote on May's deal this month

MPs may not be given a vote on a revised version of Theresa May's Brexit deal this month, a minister has said.

James Brokenshire said there might be another series of non-binding votes on possible Brexit alternatives instead.

The prime minister has to get an agreement with the EU passed by MPs by 29 March to avoid a no-deal Brexit.

She will ask MPs for more time to get changes to the deal in talks with Brussels - but Labour has accused her of "cynically" running down the clock.

She has to go there to get her next orders.

more like to reminded of what the hell she was supposed to is doing again.

Latest rumours are that somehow Theresa May will try and get the vote on her deal delayed until the final week of March, to see if the EU blink first and change their mind regarding the backstop.

Whenever May goes to these covert EU meetings with an idea...She always comes back with an opposite idea...She's being told what to do by her masters.

is that not the only way Parliament works ?

That would be good.

Prime Minister Theresa May has suffered a fresh defeat in a Commons vote on her Brexit strategy by 303 to 258.

Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn has called on the prime minister - who was not in the Commons chamber for the vote - to "admit her Brexit strategy has failed".

Tory rebels abstained, saying the government's motion implied a no-deal Brexit would be ruled out.

Ministers said that was not the case but defeat would make life more difficult for the PM in EU talks.

Mrs May has promised MPs a final, decisive vote on her Brexit deal with the EU when she has secured the changes to it she believes MPs want to see.

A Labour amendment calling for that final, meaningful vote to be held before 27 February was earlier defeated by 16 votes.

Chances of a no deal just increased then. Slowly, slowly catchee monkey...

Seven MPs leave Labour Party in protest at Jeremy Corbyn's leadership

They are: Chuka Umunna, Luciana Berger, Chris Leslie, Angela Smith, Mike Gapes, Gavin Shuker and Ann Coffey.

Ms Berger said Labour had become "institutionally anti-Semitic" and she was "embarrassed and ashamed" to stay.

Mr Corbyn said he was "disappointed" the MPs had felt unable to continue working for the policies that "inspired millions" at the 2017 election.

Shadow Chancellor John McDonnell said the "honourable thing for them to do" would be to stand down as MPs and seek to return to Parliament in by-elections.

Looks like the chances of a General election being called soon just increased.

Just Brexit.


Just do it.






Fuck the consequences.


Jesus, you're Britain.


You once ruled the fucking world.


Why would you want to be governed by Brussels?


:doublefacepalm:

Quite the opposite, and proberbility for no-deal Brexit just increased.

It's the only logical decision because this lot want to go against the manifesto they were elected on. Good riddance.
