A crucial point. Motion merely notes we’d *need* a long extension & participation in European elections. It *doesn’t* state May would ask for it. She’s literally privileging no-deal over putting MEPs up for election- and that means there are no more words to describe her disgrace
Genuinely can’t believe this is happening. May has just suffered worst defeat in modern history, twice, and doesn’t budge one iota from her position. Her fundamentalist authoritarian nihilism will live in infamy
Historians will ask why so much was wasted by so many people for so little gain. There’ll be just two answers. The first: so UK could delude itself it was a major world player & sign meaningless trade agreements. The second, far more important: because our PM disliked foreigners.
Theresa May’s zealotry is so ingrained that she intends to discard British people’s livelihoods to stop more people ever becoming British. It’s not about the will of the people, or European elections - it’s really just as simple as that. Britain has never been smaller.
