Re: Brexit (New).
http://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2...0190718_en.pdf
A truly historic piece of legislation passed in no time at all. In addition the exception is 12th April based on a set of circumstances prescribed in regulations. The default is now 22nd May. Parliament will not get to vote on that extension.
We do not leave the European Union tomorrow in statute.

Remember when you were told that it would take weeks to pass such legislation.

I will put money on they won't field candidates for both in the same constituencies. There may also be quite a few disgruntled BREXIT voters who will abandon mainstream parties who they now see as unwilling to agree on what they voted for.

It’s not a whole piece of legislation that has changed though is it, just exit day and done so by the Executive of the day.
So don’t take the piss if you wish to continue contributing in this topic.

Re: Brexit (New).
Even myself I had missed that the date was amendable by statutory instrument under the affirmative procedure.
It requires a 90 minute debate I think and can’t be delayed or amended once laid by the Government. It’s a straightforward yes or no. With 400 MPs against a no deal Brexit, it’s essentially a vote of no confidence away from being laid by a minister that commands the confidence of the house to do so. As long as they get the ball rolling before at the start of May (which will ironically be the end of May).

Re: Brexit (New).
Two interesting pieces show how the odds were stacked against the UK as the EU imposed its terms on how the negotiations were structured.
Former Greek finance minister. Says Theresa May should have not accepted a two-phase negotiation.
https://www.ft.com/video/01aef2cb-81...b-85a0c9559097
Sir Ivan Rogers who resigned as the UK’s ambassador to the EU in 2017. Talks of how the UK created in December 2017 and how the EU maximised its position throughout 2017. Says a year from now, the risk is nothing happens. Withdrawal terms are the easy bit. The hardest bit is the trade agreement.

I like that, I like it a lot
It's probably that sort of condescending attitude that kicked it all off to start with . .

No I just think that a fair number will be shown the exit by a fed up electorate.

BTW it might be an idea to consider phrasing in regards to MPs and retribution. Jo Cox should be a reminder of what happens when rhetoric get a little too strong.

Is this what this place has come to. Some people should get a grip.
