Good speech from Corbyn. Gov promised a trade deal ready to implement but future relationship political declaration takes us into a blindfold Brexit. The only thing that’s guaranteed is a backstop which ties us to EU rules without any say whatsoever. Less prosperity, less control
Except for the bit where he says the withdrawal agreement might be reopened, obviously. That simply isn’t going to happen and even if it did, there is nothing helpful that EU could or would offer. Backstop and divorce bill are part of the deal, or there’s no deal at all.
May blathers that House of Commons is ‘fulcrum of democracy’ - which must be why she’s done her utmost to frustrate or bypass MPs for the last 3 years. Truly, she is beyond shame.
Then more disingenuous bollocks about Tories’ centrepiece pledge of a Brexit referendum. Why is it so hard to understand that people voted for a process but not an outcome? This outcome doesn’t deliver what people wanted and we know that because it’s hated by Remainers & Leavers
Extraordinary PM’s now promising a widespread security relationship. No Brexit can deliver the security integration, both internal and external, that we currently enjoy, and May reveals her carelessness for both the truth and the national interest in pretending otherwise.
May has absolute gall to claim she’s a ‘proud Unionist’. No way she can get away with this. Her deal divides NI from GB by keeping NI in single market while rest of UK leaves, just to stop freedom of movement. She may be a proud Unionist, but she is a much prouder xenophobe.
Right, that’s got me nice and warmed up. On Al Jazeera for some pre-match analysis in 5 minutes
On Al Jazeera again in a moment as results come in. 80 or 200, 80 or 200? A landslide defeat of 80 would be amazing for her, come on
Fucking hell.
This is like that time I predicted May would win the 2017 general election by 100 seats.
On Al Jazeera again in a sec to get this party started
Party now in full swing. Back on Al Jazeera now for a festive post-mortem
Right, don’t go to sleep yet, I’ll be on Al Jazeera in a minute for a final kick at the government’s open goal
