I thought you were genuinely joking.

If you think that's worthy of praise then that's on you. I didn't try to belittle you, so don't try that BS with me.

her strength is also her weakness. She learnt nothing from the election where the people delivered a pretty strong message to her

Leading a minority government is near impossible at the best of times never mind when trying to extricate your country from a deeply complex union with 27 other countries when you lead a divided party. Everyone has imposed their own issues on May, she has become the scapegoat for every different faction

I do think her efforts of worthy of praise, you chose to make it an issue by dismissing it with joker smilies - that's on you

I gave specific reasons that her address was terrible; you may well have valid points about leading a divided government at this time but that wasn't really the issue. I apologise if you thought I was being dismissive but I genuinely thought you were joking - it was the "punchy from May" bit that got me.

[reece(:]

She's getting backlash from all sides online from that disastrous speech

Well I was maybe being a bit facetious with the punchy comment because I've seen it being used so often recently in political chatter that I adopted it there. I genuinely do respect May though

That's fair enough, I've no issue with that.

For anyone interested, a petition to revoke A50

https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/241584

Already past the consideration for debate stage, but it's there if anyone wants to add on to it.

[Twosugars]

The cheek of the woman!
First she plucks her red lines out of the thin air then takes far too long getting going with negotiations, gets her deal and then throws a strop MPs don't like it.
Her inflexibility is astonishing. She should have spent those years building consensus within the parliament and negotiating something that would have a chance of being accepted.
Instead she ignored all that and got what she deserved.
And now tries to claim she is on the side of the people and therefore implying the parliament is against the people.
It's not about her, it's the about the country.
She's become an obstacle to solving this situation and should resign.

Tbf she has tried to deliver Brexit which 52% of the UK want, and has been blocked at every turn

and it must be quite frustrating to be told continually they dont want it, but have no idea what they do want, they are all covering their own jobs rather than delivering something

But Cherie there's no one brexit, there are many versions of brexit.
She's fixated on her interpretation of it even though not enough MPs support it and just doesn't know when or how to resolve this situation.

[Rob!]

Pretty much certain we’re leaving with No Deal now I guess, not a week since parliament voted to take it completely off the table. Sums it up really.

She’s got some balls giving that speech, I’ll give her that. Literally absconding all blame and saying it’s the MPs fault? She’s a glutton for punishment. I wonder how THAT will go down over the dispatch box.

We're Leaving without a deal
We're Leaving without a deal
Ee I Adio

You seem be be forgetting the EU's involvement in this, they wont change the deal and have said so many times?

[bitontheslide]

Parliament can shout and argue as much as it likes, but they have a number of choices to choose from:

Accept mays deal
accept no deal
revoke article 50

The default is no deal, so if they want to avoid that, they need to choose one of the other options, and they need to do that within the next week. It's up to them, and I would suggest they think very carefully on it, because if they piss off their constituents, they will be out at the next election.

No Deal Brexit here it comes, omg can't wait for all the drama about uk in our news shows

those who voted remain are Always welcome to still come on holiday within our EU borders though
