Re: Brexit (New).

A delay of a delay. Remainers just have to push past 22 May then we are into 9 month extension teritory. From there a referendum is inevitable.

The Brexit debate tomorrow will *not* be the third meaningful vote, Sky sources say.

Our correspondent @KateEMcCann explains the speculation.

Will only get past April 12th, if the EU27 (all of them) agree to it, and on the radio this morning a Belgian MEP advised that is not in anyway a given.

Nor was March 29th. They’re as complicit in this game as our own MPs. They facilitate the pretence that something else is happening than what is obvious to me. We aren’t leaving unless leave wins a 2nd referendum.

Re: Brexit (New).

Seems to me that the EU are so scared that we may possibly leave with no deal, they're willing to keep extending the default date . . .


. . . if only that worked for tax returns eh

The more it's extended, the less likely it is to happen.

Trouble is - you can say that about all the options and one of them has to happen eventually. Or maybe not!

I've been musing on the future, and think a hung parliament would be the choice of many

Michael Gove has emerged as the bookmakers’ favourite to replace Theresa May as prime minister.

Mr Gove, the environment secretary, has seen his odds cut to as short as 3/1, according to Betfred.

Betfair put his odds at 4/1 and William Hill put them at 7/2.

It comes after Ms May said she would resign if her twice-defeated Brexit deal passes its third attempt.

Mr Gove was followed by Boris Johnson as second favourite at 4/1.

The former foreign secretary came in ahead of the current foreign secretary, Jeremy Hunt, and home secretary Sajid Javid, both at 10/1.

It comes as a poll found Mr Gove was seen as good prime minister material by 30 per cent of Tory backers, while 45 per cent disagreed, according to an Ipsos MORI survey.

He was overtaken by Mr Johnson, Mr Hunt and Mr Javid, who received approval ratings of 32 per cent.

Work and pensions secretary Amber Rudd was just behind on 31 per cent

Here is some Sky Data polling just to muddy the waters.

I wouldn’t bet against that being the case.

I disagree, if April 12th and May 22nd come and go, and if we end up in a long extension then I would put a 2nd referendum as an almost certainty.

Re: Brexit (New).

If May 22 comes & goes we will also have to elect MEPs. That’s going to be interesting. If the number of UKIP/Brexit Party MEPs goes up as a result, those wanting a second referendum are going to get very nervous. Not to mention what possible chaos a larger majority of these MEPs will cause in Brussels.
