I must update this as I’ve just realised the NI economy will be destroyed too. The burden this represents for the island of Ireland is staggering.

At least in times of economic downturn people don’t turn to more extremist political groups and no one’s thinking the brits are at it again otherwise we could aimlessly be drifting into troubles 2.0

Pretty much. Scotland’s national animal innit. :unicorn: :v:

(Not a proper animal for not a proper country. Seems apt also.)

The footballisation of politics has no space for grey areas. Win and Lose no nuance. The sensibles think that people should be reaching across the aisle and then they say these parties are these single things, it’s insane

I don’t think any one country would want to be seen to force the UK into a no deal. It’d be top bants, but realistically it’s not going to happen.
Also, it hopefully wouldn’t mean no deal - it’d mean revoking article 50.

she might sneakily let Labour table that amendment in order to wash her hands of the whole thing and forever call Corbyn a traitor to the Will of the People™

He only spoke for 1m18s and he almost ticked off every one of the 14 points of ur-fascism outlined by Umberto Eco. Seriously talented stuff. :clap:

Say if Italy vetoed an extension, wouldn’t that just create a huge resentment in the UK against Italy? Why would Italy choose to cause that, what’s in it for them, other than the lolz? Maybe I’m wrong.

The second bit, I spoke to an actual politician about this a few weeks ago, I put it to him that it could come down to May having to make a decision between no deal and revoking article 50, he reckoned she’d choose no deal. But he’s a no-deal enthusiast, so he would say that. He also said that the two main things driving her at the moment are making sure she delivers Brexit and avoiding no deal. Obviously she’ll do whichever she thinks best serves the future electoral prospects of the Tory party, that’s why I think she’ll… actually I have no idea.

Another 2 or 3 seconds and he’d have aced the lot
