Re: Brexit

Her language acknowledges that when Parliament reconvenes, some arch-remainers May try to insert an amendment in the vote on the deal to make it contingent on a second referendum. Have no doubt, this argument is going to come up, and May is setting out her position in advance.

However, regardless of anything Parliament decides, there is not time to actually pass a referendum bill before we leave anyway. All they risk is forcing us to hold a referendum having already left with no deal. This has been her strategy for some weeks now - run the clock down. It’s her deal or no deal. We’re leaving in March. Article 50 will not be rescinded before we leave.
