Stopping “no deal” Brexit, is just Remainer speak for stopping Brexit.

There was a deal on offer that was rejected 3 times, and I would suspect that any deal brought before the house would be rejected, as they don’t want to leave. Unfortunately no deal is the only form of Brexit that will happen, if it happens at all.

Despite being BRINO as you put it, none of these so called remainers supported it.
No, because the remainers wanted things to remain as they are.

I don't think it is 'extremist' to take the view that the NI backstop was unacceptable.

It's not remainer speak for stopping Brexit. It's about leaving the EU on our terms, when it suits us, and not arbitrarily leaving the EU without a deal when we are ill prepared to do so.

One option would be to change the arithmetic in Parliament, another to negotiate another deal. All of which would allow more time to prepare for no deal.

It was the extremists who voted against it - the DUP and the ERG. The moderates in the Conservative Party were happy with it.

That's a statement of fact.

The deadline for leaving will not be extended. I thought you'd heard!

Extremists. What a joke! You could call Corbynistas extremists because they are communist. The direct opposite of communism is fascism, and neither the ERG nor DUP are fascist.

You are conflating multiple issues here that are irrelevant. The ERG have an extreme view of what Brexit should look like. An element of the bigots in the DUP believe the dinosaurs were put in the Earth to challenge our faith that the world was created just a few thousand years ago.

If that's not extreme I don't know what is.

There's what he says, and then there's what he submits to a court of law (handy hint, only one is legally binding...).

Quote:
Boris Johnson will send a letter to the EU asking for a Brexit delay if no deal is agreed by 19 October, according to government papers submitted to a Scottish court.
You can't believe everything you hear...

They just ignored it or changed it. The law said we would leave in March. The law also says we will leave in October, or at least it did until they amended it.

It is not extreme to believe that Britain should leave the EU and negotiate a trade deal instead. That is basically what Brexiteers voted for. You are the one raising different issues. I'm just responding to them.
