Last night the House of Commons voted that they did not want a No Deal, but did want a deal the EU has rejected for over 2 years, but they don’t want the power to stop a No Deal. Omnishambles! South West MP and Hen-House resident, Dr Liam Fox led the charge by suggesting that Germany was ready to break and the EU would follow suit. He suggested that ‘weakness’ in the German economy meant they were ready to fold to the UK demands for fear of a No Deal Brexit. Quite why a No Deal is so catastrophic to Germany, a bigger economy than the UK, and part of a union of 27 nations to help absorb the blow…yet the same Fox thinks No Deal is but a minor event for the UK, a smaller economy with no partners to help take the blow, and that we can’t delay the leave date…a discrepancy is he never bothered to explain.

Most MPs in the South West voted on party lines, but kudos to Dr Sarah Wollaston MP who crossed the lines to vote against No Deal and for a People’s Vote; “More ludicrous # FantasyBrexit being touted today. There won’t be any renegotiation of the Withdrawal Agreement & all the nonsense is a smokescreen whilst the clock runs down to No Deal. Parliament should vote to reject that catastrophe”.

Labour MP Darren Jones echoed the call, “The House expressed its will that no deal can’t happen. The Prime Minister won an amendment to let her re-negotiate her own deal with the EU (who have already said no). No progress has been made. Now more than ever we need a @ peoplesvote_uk.”

clusterfuck that is Brexit politics can be summed up with these But at the end of the day thecan be summed up with these pithy lines
