England, like most of Europe is dead. Brexit was the last hope but the morons put a remainer in charge of it. So May sabotaged it to the point it is no longer accurate to even call it Brexit.

Goodbye western Europe. Time the US let them slip into their self-imposed abyss and concentrate on eastern Europe. Those nations understand what is like to live under the hammer of socialism/communism.

England, France, and especially Germany, live your lives without the support of America. Go away and enjoy your riots.

DISBAND NATO!

If she would have lost on the 1st vote they would have found more votes until she won.

Britain needs full a full exit to remain autonomous, and to be able to negotiate their own trade agreements.

They need a full Brexit.

However, I believe you are correct.

This does not end well.

Their only way through this, may well be if the EU begins to splinter apart.

Large scale war may well be very near, from the east.

Another precursor would be if Moscow begins to force the balkanization of Eastern Europe, or really turns the screws into a highly Russian energy dependent Germany and Central Europe.

This could get really interesting.

No matter how you cut it, this ultimately does not go well for Britain, or the rest of Europe. Most societies will not even be able to follow what is actually happening to them because of the hyper militant left-wing media and press puppets.

The obvious solution is to return to an actual border and let the EU shove their backstop up their backsides.

It also get’s shoved up the backside of the Brits in Northern Ireland.

There were 200 votes for May and 117 against, and the most honorable Brendog Snipehunt has certified that May won by 400 votes. She apparently found a box of forgotten ballots in the Tower of London. She has now been summoned to Paris at the request of Emmanuel Macron and his mum.

Actually, this is great news. Both the UK and the EU have stated that hard Brexit happens unless both the EU and the UK sign off on the sane deal before 21 January 2019. This won’t happen. So, hard Brexit. The deal offered keeps the UK in the EU in perpetuity, unless the EU lets the UK go, which would only happen if the UK won a hot war with the EU. The deal offered was incredibly bad. A no confidence vote would lead to early elections, and a probable Labor victory, and an end to hopes of UK independence.

Lots of questionable assumptions there, not least that a Labour government would mean the end of Brexit. The hard left wing of Labour, which now controls the party and to which Corbyn belongs, is just as anti-EU as the right wing of the Conservatives, although of course for entirely different reasons. Corbyn in his many years as a Labour backbencher has consistently voted against every EU treaty and measure, often in defiance of his own party whips.

Brexit going very badly, I’m not sure it’s all her fault but she does suck and I was hoping she’d get the boot.

She says she will not lead the party in the next election.
