Corbyn, Conservatives and the Norway Option - Brexit Update 3 - NO Brexit


Lets Get Real:

On Brexit it can be argued that the Labour Leader is more of a HARD BREXIT supporter than most MPs on both sides, but he wants to keep his Party together, thus his move to support a 2nd Brexit vote, everyone knows that his heart is not in to that, thus the above talks.  The problem for Corbyn is that the Norway option allows the UK to stay in the single market, that would prevent Corbyn should he win the next general election from taking over large areas of the UK economy.   Thus his call for a custom union, that would not tie his hands on the domestic front.   Thus there are problems for Corbyn even in having these talks, the HARD REMAINERS within the Labour Party want a 2nd Brexit vote, they see this move as the real Corbyn wanting to come out.   Lets be honest, Corbyn wants Brexit without his fingerprints on the deal, that is going to be VERY HARD.   The Hard Brexit Conservative MPs need to back the May Deal, or they could get a VERY SOFT, SOFT Brexit, a Brexit in NAME ONLY.   The clock it sticking for the HARD BREXIT MPs, will it be Deal or No Deal.


A HARD WARNING from a Cabinet Remainer to HARD BREXIT MPs - Brexit Update 2 - NO Brexit


Lets Get Real:

THIS is a clear warning from a HARD REMAINER the Chancellor of the Exchequer, the House of Commons will take control of the Brexit process if the May Deal is not passed on Tuesday.   The Labour Leader is working with some Conservative MPs for a the UK to stay in the Customs Union with the EU, this is not what the HARD BREXIT MPs want, but they could get that if they fail to support the PM.   Also they could face a general election or a 2nd Brexit vote, one that could reverse the first BREXIT VOTE.   The Hard Brexit MPs need to smell coffee, democratic politics is not about political purity, it is about votes at the end of the day, the Brexit MPs are throwing Brexit through the window over a THEORY of the BACKSTOP.  Lady T is spinning in her grave. 

The ROAD to NO BREXIT - Brexit Update 1 - No Brexit


Lets Get Real:

The Brexit talks between the UK and the EU is liking watching a slow car crash, the HARD REMAINERS since 2016 have been firm in their attempts to block the EU leaving the EU, while the HARD Brexit MPs can not take YES for an answer.   Any other time the Brexit MPs would support the MAY DEAL as it would get the UK out of the EU, that is the point, but they have fooled themselves into believing that if they just wait that they can get what the WANT, a HARD BREXIT.   The truth is that the numbers are not there in the House of Commons.   The May Deal will go down to defeat, the next day the House of Commons will reject a NO DEAL BREXIT, then the following day the House of Commons will vote to extend Article 50.  The end process could be a SOFT BREXIT, a GENERAL ELECTION, OR a 2ND BREXIT VOTE.  Thus real Brexit would be LOST.   The voters need to vote out those MPs both HARD REMAINERS and HARD BREXIT MPs who have thwarted Brexit.  A sad day for UK democracy.
