The European Union has agreed to give the United Kingdom a short delay to Brexit — but only if Members of Parliament vote for Theresa May's deal next week.

Leaders of the 27 other EU member states said on Thursday that they were prepared to extend the Article 50 withdrawal process until May 22, to give the UK time to prepare for its departure, according to draft conclusions obtained by several news organisation.

The date coincides with the start of the European Parliament elections. However, the offer falls some way short of the three month extension ending on June 30 which the prime minister had asked for.

IOW, the EU is admitting defeat if it doesn't pass, which means it's a bad deal for Britain if it does. Hard Brexit, remove May and her Remainers.

Hmm...first time this went to a vote it was defeated by a historic margin. Third vote on it may be the day before hard Brexit is due. We're in for an exciting week.

Which they’re not going to. It failed by huge margins the first two times.

This ultimatum would have pissed off the Brits I knew from years past. Namely one cigar-chomping one.

Yeah NOTHING exciting about it unless the death of Brexit is exciting to some, which i’m sure it is.

Parliament can either vote for the deal, prepare for a hard Brexit or vote to invoke Art 49 and remain in the EU.

Brussels is unlikely to grant another Art. 50 extension.

The EU is already dictating terms of surrender to May.
The Parliment must do this or do that. May must do this
or do that.
The EU already owns the Brits.

Theresa May will be remembered as the Neville Chamberlain
of her time. Surrendering her country to the EU.

Brits only choice is between leaving on terms they don’t want or staying in an EU they hate.

What a Hobson’s Choice. It like a choice between a bullet behind the head or slowly being strangled to death.

Some choice.

It’s just like American leftist politics where the turd keeps on being polished and shoved in our face until enough idiots vote it as gold.

I wonder how large a vacation home Theresa May is going to purchase with the pay off checks she received from the Globalist Deep State?
