An extension for what though? No one in Parliament or HoC seems to know what might be achieved by an extension to A50.

Baffled again me.

They're all baffled. The only things they know are what they don't want. And most of them are so happy in their ignorance.

When they vote to prevent no deal tomorrow they will have no choice but to beg for an extension. It's up to the EU27 to decide, there is some possibility that Ireland and the Netherlands could convince the rest for some kind of extension to get our shipping and customs in order.

SNIP. No more one-liners please.

Isn’t the most likely outcome that ultimately the UK will never leave?

Can we now please lobby Brussels to just tell them it over on the 29.03.2019 and put an end to it. Its like watching a dog chasing its bloody tail.

One would assume that any extension is going to be dependent on any due amount from the owed 39bn being paid up.



Else let them feck off

An extension may be in the best interest for Ireland, we can get everything in place while they continue to argue amongst themselves.
It may not be in the best interest of the EU as a whole though, there are other matters that are on hold that the EU could be working on right now.

How fuc ked are they lads?

Well this is the opinion of some members of the public, some eejit punter in Derby believes that the UK in the case of no deal automatically reverts to WTO rule which means their current trading agreements with the EU remain the staus quo and they may stay like that for years and years.

Let there be no illusions here.

When the the ex Brexit minister believes that the transition will be there if there is no agreement what hope has the rest of the MP's in the house?

Nice and Lisbon treaty be damned we as a nation deserved a say in any intrusion or disruption to our country backstop or whatever comes from this will have significant effects on everything be that travel or the prices of goods in shops we are in for a bumpy ride.

That's fair enough, but it does nothing for the situation in the UK either.

I'd guess even if there is an extension that France will just do what they always do best, and strike/go slow/work to rule at their ports for one reason or another. That'll show them.

If it was a dog it would have been put it out of its misery a long time ago.
Maybe they need to outsource Brexit to China or India.

They did that already recently. Not pretty.

Could you imagine Labour with Starmer in charge? He would have demolished May week in week out at PMQs.

There should be no extension, this uncertainty is causing havoc in the markets. Companies will refuse to invest in the UK until they know what's going on.

Thargor

Geoffrey Cox is such a cringing embarrassment the way he talks like that, he wants to be a "character" like Bercrow but he doesnt have the charisma or the acting ability to pull it off and just looks and sounds like a shout-y a$$.

Water John

UK will ask for an Ext of Art 50. This will lead to some tough negotiations. EU will demand a map.

Grieve absolutely nobbles both Cox and Mogg.

JRM asking about a way of dismantling the agreement in the future to avoid the backstop. ModSNIP. No more insults please.

Inquitus

Got the popcorn, got the debate and vote on the TV, 150 vote loss predicted, then the HoC in utter chaos, what's not to like? Though hopefully this turns things in a better way for us, I am worried about a GE, Boris (or some other even worse Brexit loony) and a big Tory majority.

Barclay v. Good at the despatch box.

Professor Moriarty

The debate is surreal. Not one MP will be convinced either way. Just grandstanding and egotism.

What is that now about Article 62 of the Vienna Convention? It seems like JRM is suggesting to back the deal and then just drop it at their time of choosing using this. Seems like that would go down well with the EU if they did that.

He can certainly work the altar.


Where are people watching this, I've BBC on, any recommendations for any better coverage?

He asked Cox what the consequences would be if they just ignored their obligations to the backstop. Not deserving of his "Honorable" title.
