Sure I was told on here earlier that the snp and lib dems wanted an election. Maybe I imagined it

How about the EU changing their mind?

You know when they said, time and time again, that the original 'deal' with the Backstop wouldn't be changed?

We know the EU well - they've been full of bullshit for decades.

We went back and offered concessions so they reconsidered. One of the few reasonable things in this whole sorry process.

We kept on conceding in the original negotiations remember and then we conceded again at the end by offering up NI as the sacrificial lamb to secure the deal

Well, if you have been following, it was going to be off the table, so they are welching in their words.

Reason? My guess; they lose the election and Boris wins, he can do what he needs.

As I read the reports it was not removed completely as option. I don't believe they will do well so you are probably correct

Have the last few elections not taught us that polls mean fuck all???

I was looking at the family tree the other week and my grandma was the youngest of 23 😂 there were no tellies in those days

Crikey mate

 

I saw her from Morecambe on tv the other day expecting her 22nd.

That’s seen more action than Rambo.

You do realise that the backstop has gone only because we are back to the original plan Barnier wanted? Boris has done a full 180 and everyone thinks he's the dogs danglies? Weird times.

Exactly. This is the original EU plan. May rejected it because people like Boris said it was completely unacceptable. 

Boggles the mind how they manage to spin this shit and people lap it up.

They said the backstop couldn't be changed and then bozo gave them something better

Course they moved then

Can we please have a moment’s silence guys ?

 

Manchester Council leaders have written to Sadiq Khan asking for advice on how to combat knife crime.

 

I may be a wind up merchant but this event has actually taken place today.

 

Whatever next ? Jimmy Savile to open a nursery ?

Our country is truly fucked.

It was May being weak when it was her deal; you kept saying that a change of leader would solve it 

Now it’s “u-turn Boris”, it’s everyone else’s fault 🤣

Fucking brilliant. Not sure who’s more hypocritical, Mounts or Bozzer

If I had a tenner for every time on this thread I’d be wadded 

Its a fact if we had BJ in charge from day 1 we’d be in a better place, that he’s had to take a remain negotiated deal and then fight a remain House of Commons, it’s a tribute to him he’s managed to reopen the WA, remove the backstop and get a deal that allows us to negotiate trade deals under our own rules, shame the Tories chose May and shame folk weren’t savvy enough to vote tory after the referendum but it is what it is and at least it looks like it’s goodbye to Brussels and all the bollocks that goes with it.

Better for the U.K., we get to negotiate deals without having to align with EU rules.

May went for the backstop to appease the DUP, a proper leader realised that was folly and decided that the way forward was to sack it off and do our own trade deals.

Please explain why it was better to leave and not have the freedom to do new trade deals?

I do, was a tough call but necessary. That’s what proper leaders do.

Concede, concede and concede again

Let's remind ourselves what Johnson said and guess what he did. Do you seriously trust this guy given his track record of lying?

Who are you voting for ?

He doesn't want to say it. I'll say it for him. The Brexit Party.
