I really hope you are right. I am sick with worry over this.

That’s awful, sorry to hear that you and they are under that level of worry and stress

well I try not to think about it too much, I’m sure he does too, I hope he will be ok, he’s a very resilient person but yeah it is stressful to think about.

I’m sure there are others in worse positions.

Thank you though :slight_smile:

Even if it doesn’t pass tomorrow he’ll just pull the ol’ Teresa manoeuvre and bring it back and it’ll get through I’m guessing?

Unsure to be really cross with you for getting all us hopes up that it would never happen, or grateful for the sweet reprieve of blissful ignorance you gifted us.

He won’t have time to do that before he has to ask for an extension.

Is there anything to stop him just holding more meaningful votes after asking for extension? Other than possible VONCs?

One Labour MP who voted against that deal twice and then abstained at the third time has said he’s going to vote for it, for a reason so bullshit it can’t be reasoned with, and has repeated it after getting the rubber hosing from McDonell that some here have been fantasising about.

Omens say: morons win the day.

no, but if there is an extension, there will also be a general election after a vote of no confidence.

I guess he’s being honest…

You’re right, it is depressing.

Didn’t realise we’d met or that you knew my name, though.

The silver lining to Brexit: saying we told you so to @jimmyhuntspill :grimacing:

To quote that well known political commentator, Han Solo. ‘I’ve got a bad feeling about this’.

The more I read about the deal, the more it seems to be ‘we’ll make some decision on that at a later date’ for every issue.
