MPs voted overwhelmingly to invoke article 50. There is not a fucking chance in hell anyone voted on the basis of it being advisory. The government made it clear they would act on it and they did by invoking article 50.
Politics in this country is first past the post. It was to be expected the winners decision would be respected but that the losers would fight on.
The way this government have handled brexit is fucking disgraceful regardless of which side of the fence you come down on. The opposition have been even worse when it should not be possible.
May is managing to piss off everyone and Corbyn is as effective as Shaun close.
Expect a lot more shit.

Thats my take on it as well. As soon as article 50 is triggered it's game on - deal or no deal. They can, of course, withdraw article 50 and back as we were. The EU may allow us to extend article 50 but are under no obligation to do so. We're entering squeeky bum time.
I fully expect parliament to vote down Mays deal and not allow us to leave with no deal. Parliament to revoke article 50 and a general election.

At the mo, if parliament votes down May's deal we leave with no deal on the 29th March.  The only power parliament then has is to cancel Article 50. An extension of it needs EU approval, and why would they agree to that?

I guess either a No Deal vs Staying in referendum or a general election may get the EU to extend Article 50...of course, they may just tell us to do one.

It's a bloody mess, no matter what else you are on.

I just accidentally attempted to report my own post...and was prevented from doing so.  Not even Shaun Close would have done that.  He is unfairly maligned.  Corbyn and TM not so much.

I did see him score after 40 seconds once, though.  Doesn't really help with your point, I know.

Shaun Close would be a good one for Rich to interview on Loathed Strangers.

And missed how many? If he’d not played for Man U it would have been a fraction of that.
