Good morning Brexitland. Just 10 days till we find out if there is enough stuff stockpiled to avoid production halts and empty supermarkets. What to do? 1/~ Do not succumb to "tiredness"....
2/ Theresa May compressed the political debate into a few weeks to cause chaos, hoping that opponents of her vassal state Brexit plan would throw in the towel. We're in the critical days and can win...
3/ Last night's failure as @IanDunt points out was caused by a rift in the progressive side: Chucka's Tory flip-flops plus some Blairite Labour MPs voted AGAINST the Single Market and free movement! And...
4/ Some Corbynite MPs refused to vote for a second referendum - including the party chair @IanLaveryMP breaking a party whip... but both these groups now have to rethink...
5/ We need a parliamentary alliance in the next 48 hours to pass the Single Market proposal and put it to a second referendum. Passing that on Weds could trigger Govt. request for a long extension - even just to call a general election...
6/ Even if parliament enacts the Single Market and Referendum solution into law we are going to need a different government to execute the decision - a national unity govt would be illegitimate...
7/ Labour MPs need to understand that the members who select them are getting a little bit pissed off with them ignoring both a conference policy and a 3-line whip - the latter imposed by many of us on the left agreeing to compromise in the name of saving the country...
8/ as for Umunna and Soubry - remember; on the night they could have stopped Hard Brexit and ensured Single Market membership and freedom of movement they chose to facilitate hard Brexit. I can't wait to tell the voters of Streatham & Broxtowe about that.
