REFERENDUM RESULTS AND DISCUSSION THREAD

Thatcher was a Europhile!

The single market was one of her dreams.

The single market was one of her dreams.
I havent watched the vid but from the text on the post she shared I would say it's a cut from a long speech about Europe.

The very fact that she is using Thatcher just shows what Brexit is doing. Normal politics dont matter anymore. Once we have left she will be back to hating the Tories.
 
Thatcher believed in the Common Market and campaigned for us to stay in '73. Because she negotiated the rebate and fought hard for what she saw as Britain's interests she was portayed as anti Europe in the rwp which she wasn't. She was against what it had become by the time she died though
 
Rebellion of about 50 One Nation Tories staved off by Johnson promising that No Deal won't be a manifesto pledge.

Of course, the value of a Johnson promise isn't very much, but it shows how boxed in the Tories are- they'd have to jettison large chunks of the party to try and outflank Farage.

According to Nick Watt on Newsnight Johnson has already backtracked and that No Deal is still an option of their Brexit Policy for their next Manifesto.
 
Has Johnson thrown the now not so useful DUP under one of his Brexit Buses? Reports out of Ireland suggest that he might have.
 
Progress?

NEW: Michel Barnier has got green light from the EU27 for there to be tunnel negotiations
 
Looks like the DUP are going to veto the Boris deal. Better get writing that extension letter then...
 
And he still hasn’t briefed the full details of the deal to his own cabinet. Broad landing zone my arse. More like x marks the spot where we crash.
 
Mark Francois - “We want to live in a free country, that elects its own government, & makes its own laws, & then lives under those laws in peace”

No words really.
 
How I long for the halcyon days of right wing nut jobs of the time like Bill Cash and John Redwood being patted on the head and told to fuck off
 
Mark Francois - “We want to live in a free country, that elects its own government, & makes its own laws, & then lives under those laws in peace”

No words really.
