So, back to

1. Softest of soft Brexits
2. Another vote
3. 'No deal' (if you are a swivel-eyed loon, Fantasist or, specially for pastafarian, a teenage anarchist)

At least if May wins the vote 52% vs 48% the leavers will stop moaning right ?

nope, Rees-Mogg complaining the vote for May is from those on the payroll of the government :shootself

Rees-Mogg on BBC, fuming about his loss. Claiming that the 150 mp’s who receive wages for ministerial or trade envoy work, would inherently vote for their boss. But it was pointed out to him that it was a secret ballot. He still stuck with his point.

He really is shooting himself in the foot. My guess is that we will end up staying in the EU, one way or another through the UK political process, exactly as we were/are. So he and all other Labour and Tory Brexiteers (politicians and countless millions) would’ve lost their once ever chance of leaving the EU. Their desire for the perfect clear cut ending, will leave them with no ending and the UK will be part of an ever converging superstate. Madness.

Can we have a vote of no confidence in Rees-Mogg ? ???

Thatcher got 204 votes in 1990 and resigned 2 days later. May's margin of 83 is better than Thatchers of 52, but this 'aint over by a long shot tonight. She's getting no concessions out of The EU and The Withdrawal Agreement is a non-runner at Westminster.

Watching Sky news interview 4 MPs that voted against May, not very happy about result. Now saying that because a third of her party want her out, she should still tended her resignation in the morning. These people are not fit to represent this government.

Still over 30% of her own MP's don't rate her, and so we limp on til the next crisis. The Russians really don't need to interfere in our politics at the moment.

Just shy of 37% of her MP's are against May v just shy of 41% that were of Thatcher's.

Good job that they don’t then, they’re just backbench MP’s.

Really, do you think Labour would want a general election, they must be shitting it thinking that they might get in and Albert Steptoe might have to sort this mess out.

The SNP put paid to our chance of ever seeing a Labour Party with overall control of the commons (the unexpected Westminster genie that was let out by the creation of the Scottish Parliament).
