    Hopefully Corbyn's resignation. :)

    Not just the Tory party that need fresh leadership.

    Unfortunately I suspect Momentum will keep him there as long as possible. I say unfortunately because he is purely playing politics, if May said white was white he would argue it was black. He seems to think that he has backing, to the extent he was convinced he had won the last election.

    If he were ever to get voted in then Momentum would immediately push him out of office and replace him with McDonnell. Corbyn would wreck the country, McDonnell would take it back to the dark ages.

    Corbyn is dangerous, McDonnell is a death sentence for the country.

    Where's the Single Market option in either of those 'plans' ? That's an SNP red line and has been since the Brexit ref. Also :-
    Missed analysis but is it just me or have SNP played a clever game here. By abstaining on the softer Brexit options ... they can see where their help is needed to get something over the line? Puts them in a bargaining position?
    Hope that clarifies things a bit better for you. But somewhere along the line in the last few years a soft brexit seems to mean only a customs union - rather than the Single market plus/minus the customs union it did at the beginning of all this. Bear that in mind.
    It all seems so stupid it makes me want to give up.
    But why should I give up, when it all seems so stupid ?

    Seems as if a fair number of MP's abstained or simply didn't turn up to vote.
