The fate of May?

Seems she signed her own demise with Brexit deal.

Take the personalities out of the situation. Not a deal. It's what's on the table.

Maybe she will choose to resign if Parliament rejects her deal, but there is nothing to force her to do so. There will be enough votes from Tory MPs to force a vote on her leadership if they want to do so, but I dont know if they have the votes to actually force her out.

I'm still waiting to hear an alternative plan. There are very obviously EU red lines contained in the document.

Personally, I don't think she will or even necessarily should go, I doubt anyone else is going to negotiate anything a great deal better given the constraints she is operating under, that said I doubt it wil get through Parliament as it stands.

The biggest problem is that the last 2 years and a bit years has only seemingly left both sides more entrenched and less willing to compromise, some of the Government's past rhetoric hasn't helped that, but there is no going back on it now.

In what way is this deal the best course of action for the country? By definition wouldn’t such a deal have to show at the very least - some improvements from our current position? As it stands we’ve lost billions, we stand to lose hundreds of billions more. The nation has never been more divided, and the uk itself looks like it’s created very real scenarios that could break it up. And in return, we get... nothing. The right to copy and paste eu regulations and directives because abandoning them is too costly, sovereignty that we always had, we reduce immigration that was benefiting the economy and we can’t make trade deals - not that any would compensate for the loss of the single market. The answer is staring us in the face.......... a people's vote on the deal or staying in the EU.

Imo you have to be a liar or a fool to suggest this deal (or any brexit) is the best course of action for the country!

I give May no more than31 days....

....and confidently predict it will be followed by June.

She mentioned last night that the options were the deal, no deal or..... remain - that last one shes never really mentioned as an option until now

I think its very obvious where this is heading, the next GE is going to be interesting

She signed her own fate when she took the PM job - after Camerons blunder the next PM was a poison chalice and would have their career sunk whatever happened.


She'll keep her position until someone wants to take it over. I'm not sure if that'll be once the exit deal is done and we work on the transition deal, or if it'll be at the next GE.


(I'm convinced the plan was always remain, with a lot of noise to pretend like they were trying to get a cake and eat it deal. At some point she'll say the best option is to remain, blame the EU for being uncompromising and then she'll resign and take her golden parachute all the way to Monaco with her millionare husband.)

The very same red lines they told us on day 1, perhaps?

She signed her own demise at the Lancaster House speech. (written by Nick Timothy, an unelected bureaucrat).

Translating a narrow leave win on an advisory referendum into an imperative to leave the SM, CU and ECJ oversight was a huge mistake.

In the bin.... (whether black/green/brown bin that's open to debate)
