    So we have absolutely no way to proceed.
    I really can’t believe we are where we are.

    3 choices -
    The EU give a bit and we get a deal through
    The EU don’t shift and we get on with managing no deal
    We change the parliamentary numbers.

    What we simply cannot do any more is kick this further down the road.

    4th choice.
    Rearrange the +500 pages of the withdrawal agreement and the 9 pages of the political understanding, call the backstop the agreement stop (any name will do) and vote the deal through.
    There will be no Brexit dividend for Britain.

    Thank goodness. We were told that the unvertainty caused by the referendum vote was bad, but IMO the last 3 years of shilly-shallying haven't been any better.

    Johnson's challenge to Hunt....."I've promised to shoot the country in the face on Nov 1st if I don't get my way. Will you promise the same?"

    Is it my imagination or is most of the emotional rhetoric in this thread coming from Remainers?

    Has exposed the brittle fractured nature of UK politics.

    Appointed after backroom dealings by heads of government. Usually French and German as pointed out by Moe The Bartender above.

    Each nation is allocated one or more Commisioners and gets to choose their nominees. The UK could have nominated commissioners based on a vote in Parliament but chose not to.

    FR/GE only nominate their own Commissioners.
    Few people are capable of expressing with equanimity opinions which differ from the prejudices of their social environment. Most people are incapable of forming such opinions.

    There’s nowhere near a majority for that. And forming a govt that is stable enough to do that in 14 days is asking a lot.
    It would effectively need Tory MPs to actively put Corbyn in no 10. Not by accident, they would actually have to purposefully do that.

    I guess it could happen. I could then see something equally as extreme as dozens of Tory MPs resign their seats in protest.

    No they wouldn’t want JC as leader - suggestions I’ve heard discussed are Hilary Benn or Yvette Cooper.

    Maybe Remainers have a better understanding of a no deal?
