    The EU might even offer an extension.


    I think they would because they know there is a chance of remain/GE/referendum/WA etc.

    Why would they want to force a no deal?

    Boris just tweeted New deal or no deal - but no delay. #GetBrexitDone #LeaveOct31

    Looks like nothing has changed.


    Considering his 100% failure record so far my knickers are staying untwisted.

    Hungarian Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto says the UK is a "friend and ally" of Hungary and claims he is "fed up" with Brussels for attempting to diminish the significance of Brexit: "This is simply not true! UK represents 14% of the European economy, one seventh!"

    Hopefully Hungary will do us a favour.

    Remoaners can't argue that Leave voters were not told the full implications of what Brexit would mean during the campaign. Look how clear the Vote Leave campaign was about what Brexit would mean for the Irish border:

    So, given that is absolutely not the case, the leavers were either lying or they didn’t bother to actually investigate what would actually have to happen at the border. Which was it?

    The Leavers were first successfully conned into voting leave because they were told that there were no downsides.


    They are now being successfully conned into believing that they voted for No Deal, just to "get Brexit done."


    The ONLY people who told them that things would not be better was the Remain campaign & this was immediately labelled as Project Fear.

    The Leave campaign weren't just dishonest about what Brexit would mean for the border, they were totally ignorant, as former Vote Leave campaigner Oliver Norgrove explains by here.

    One night, I want to say sometime around the end of May 2016, BBC Newsnight – to be hosted by James O’Brien that evening – rang us at Westminster Tower to ask for a representative to go on that night to debate the effects of Brexit on the Border. Nobody in the office was keen to take up the request, with even our more polished and experienced media performers rejecting the opportunity on the grounds that they simply lacked real knowledge of the issue

    One of the biggest lies and one that most of the delusional Brexiteers are clinging to is the big 30% property price fall they think they will get. They want this fall in the same way they would want a comet hitting the earth or a plague, both causing mass misery and destruction. I really hate them for that

    Oh come on, I am willing to bet that at least 50% of them could not even point Eire out on a map
