Problem is...is the EU going to accept an extension without a deal in place?

Also extension without a plan is what exactly....there will still be the same divisions.
The EU will be long-suffering to its 3rd largest contributor...

321 - 278 is a worrying scoreline. It's not the resounding defeat that the two Deal offers got and it's close enough to make a No Deal Brexit very likely. Only needs 44 MPs to decide a No Deal Brexit is better than a bad Deal between now and the 29th

Excuse my ignorance but I've been reading that in a 2nd referendum - which seems very unlikely anyway - the Leave option would win again. How? :dwillhuh: after all the fukkery that's been happening the people would still vote to leave the EU? Why?

Or is it one of those cases were polls would be incredibly wrong once the voting took place? :patrice:

I think the issue is the British public since the financial crisis has been living under austerity. People see there's no public investment in housing, police, cost of living has increased, and vultures are even trying to privatize their beloved NHS.

So the whole reason for the first referendum was that the EU was seen as part of this problem by far right phony populists... not the government's own policies of catering to plutocrats. Then that trickled to the voters who wanted to send a message to the establishment.

And those voters still hate the political establishment and ain't gonna have their voice taken from what they wanted 3 years ago.

That's the dilemma with both major parties.

Human nature, the possibility strongly exists that the people who voted leave would dig their heels in.

Personally I think stay would win. People realise now it was all bullshyt. The problem is, what do you do then, say it is 1-1 and go for the tiebreaker?

It's a mess.
