I don't expect many to have the motivation or patience to read this, but it is the best summary of where we currently are and where we are likely to end up, that I have read for a long time.

Listening to Boris this morning and his tempo on Brexit, he does come across as a person that's going to just go ahead no matter what.
in the political side of things that could be political suicide, but with politics at the moment maybe taking such risks for him as a leader and the tory party then maybe is going to do him ok.
Labours stand on wanting a second referendum and not taking any view but adding to this labours view to want to add the remain on any ballot could well cost them many seats and keep JC out of number 10.
still soon be October 31st lol

Kimmie and Brian, when I read your comments after you came off the night shift this morning I thought that would be it for the day as you needed to get your heads down. How wrong could I be?
My suggestion now is, ‘get a room!’
Kimmie are you now a remainer and a date changer as your post #4593 suggests?

Qué sera sera. Nothing we can do to influence events. Best to sit, watch, wait and be entertained by those who think their emotional contortions will make a difference (they won’t).

You take a very simplistic view
Even if we didn't leave
And I'm sure we will
The 2 main parties will still be around

The two main parties seem to not have grasped that Brexit has rewritten the rule book. The first party to adapt to this wins in my view. The only ones that appear to have clocked this so far are the Liberal Democrats.

Yeah, well, the Liberal Democrats have had a number of USPs over the years, including proportional representation, a penny on income tax to fund something or other, and now revoke Article 50, but I can't say it's been a winning solution.
I hadn't realised until last weekend that the 2016 referendum had been based on/its results usually portrayed using local authority boundaries rather than parliamentary constituencies, so it would be interesting to see how a "Remain" lobby might play out in a GE (I got this from an on-line article about Rosie Duffield).

Much has been said in parliament and written in the mainstreams recently about 'moderating' political language. All nonsense in my view: invective's been the currency of political exchange since well before Gillray called Pitt the Younger 'a toadstool upon a dunghill.' (Admittedly Gillray was artist not politician, but worse - or better! - has been spoken in parliament). It's just that modern politicians don't do it nearly so well, and end up sounding merely petulant. This weeping and wailing of the thin-skinned is lamentable, as choice abuse, sarcasm and contumely is what keeps many people tuned in, and actually contributes to humanising the useless b*stards. Besides, not a few honourable members have earned pocket money out of publishing anthologies of the stuff.
Nevertheless, I cannot countenance the insulting reference to the European Union (Withdrawal) (No. 2) Act as 'the Benn Act.' This is too gross a stinger: Tony Benn must be turning in his grave (or, if he was cremated, all shook up) that his surname should be associated with such a thing. Though I'm not knocked out by 'the surrender bill', it at least has the virtue of attempting a definition.

Perhaps it should have been called the Bennded Knee Act.
Master of political invective in modern times is the Beast of Bolsover. He once said in Parliament ‘half that lot opposite are crooks.’ Upon being rebuked by the Speaker, he said ‘I apologise Mr Speaker. Half that lot opposite are not crooks.’
