They'll be happy when they get 73 versions of Nigel Farage.

A two year extension?

oh well, at least we will be able to save money on a new Lexus or BMW, eat and drink expensive foods & wine, save £2-36 on our next foreign holiday, and the farmers can carry on being paid to sit on their arse.

How much a year will we be paying into the EU for that little 'gift'?

Actually you could change quite a few to Remain with those arguments ! Apart from a feeling of 'sovereignty', which we never lost any way, there are absolutely no benefits to Brexit, just negatives. It's a fact those supporting Brexit have realised and it's why they are floundering.

Who is floundering. I’m not and I don’t see any other Brexiteers on here who are. Fake News.

Next steps...

MPs face a "stark" choice between a short delay to Brexit - if they back Theresa May's deal - or a much longer one if they reject it, a minister said.
David Lidington - Mrs May's second-in-command - was speaking ahead of a vote later on delaying the UK's departure from the EU on 29 March.
The PM will make a third attempt to get MPs to back her deal in the next week.
If it fails again, Mr Lidington said MPs would get two weeks to decide what they wanted to do instead.
The government would allow MPs to hold a series of votes on possible ways forward on Brexit, indicated the cabinet office minister.

Any idea of what will happen 29th of march if the EU refuse an extension?

During my consultations ahead of #EUCO, I will appeal to the EU27 to be open to a long extension if the UK finds it necessary to rethink its #Brexit strategy and build consensus around it.

So the unelected civil servants can't over-rule them after all, then? Bit late in the day, but at least we now know. ;)
