Brexit can be cancelled

Teresa May facing a vote of no confidence
https://www.telegraph.co.uk/politics/201...eadership/


It looks like either the UK will stay or they are going to have a hard Brexit. The EU is making it incredibly difficult to leave. We can discuss the merits of holding a nation in a union against their will, but that is what I am betting on right now. May will get thrown out and the new PM will hold a 2nd emergency referendum which will be won by Team Stay due to the mass amount of fear and chaos that has been created by this process

well if the Tory MPs can change their minds two years later, why not the rest of the people?

Not official, but it looks like Theresa May is going to win the no-confidence vote.

What Tory MPs changed their mind? Most of them were always against it (hence UKIP) and a large chunk of voters that voted for it came from Labor.

I meant about who they elected to lead their party.

merkel - ousted
may - no confidence vote today
macron - no confidence vote tomorrow

Is globalism on the ropes?

May survived. Now it comes down to the UK choosing between a bad deal or no deal at all. The EU could always do a 180 a negotiate a fair deal but that is not like likely

Merkel, Macron, May, etc. — they are just the hood ornaments. The people who own the car will just replace them as needed.

Sure, but they are selling a lemon of a product that has been thoroughly rejected.

Only the most dumbed down/brainwashed fringes of the alt-left, that truly think they are going to get something “free” buy into globalism, socialism, multiculturalism, technocracy, free migration/open borders, sharia law, etc.

See, this is the problem with making predictions... Uh, she didn't get thrown out.

Yep, but we still got a long way to go until Brexit if official

I think May survived because there isn't a Tory that wants the PM gig right now.

I'm thinking there may be a lot of truth to that.
