The EU are prepared for no deal, so not really a threat to them.
This tweet summed up the shambles at the heart of this government.

Utterly shambolic and irresponsible. Each time she promises a new date. Each time she delays. Each time we get closer to cliff edge. How are businesses, public services & families supposed to plan in this chaos? Why should anyone believe these pledges when she keeps ripping them up

It's an enormous threat to Ireland and thus to the EU. I hope that Varadkar chokes on his tail.

Well that's a comfort. :rolleyes:

He'd be better employed praying for the victims of his religion and the practioners.

Isn't that the other lot? Although, you do have a point :)

He would be better placed bending May's ear about the mess she is making of the whole thing. That might actually achieve something.

Although Theresa May does not give the impression that she's the best of listeners, she's a daughter of a vicar so she might listen to a man of the cloth.

As Matthew Paris succinctly put in a article she listens to no one while completely ignoring any advice she is given..

If she provides a legal constraint to the backstop, what bits about hers deal are you against?

---------- Post added at 21:12 ---------- Previous post was at 21:07 ----------

In reference to my earlier request, apart from the backstop and the £41 billion on offer, can anyone on this forum tell me what else is so terrible about the May Withdrawl agreement?

If she was to get legally binding assurances about the backstop, what else is in there that could make an MP vote against it, given the alternative?

As I understand it I think we're actually better of in the backstop, no new laws, access to single market, being part of the customs union ish, no membership fees and no free movement, what's not to like, no wonder the EU aren't keen oh and we keep the fish!

That is as said if I understand it right, I've made no real effort to look for information preferring instead to listen to Farage, Mugg, Bozo and the rest and think the exact opposite of what they said, it's easier that way

This is a withdrawal agreement, the real negotiation (fish, tariffs etc) comes with any trade agreement we agree with the EU.
We will still have to pay for access to the single market.

Just seen a bit more of this article on Twitter. Rather worrying.
