Westminstenders: Crisis. What Crisis

October is slowly rolling into November.

Your eyes, rightly, will be distracted by events the other side of the pond.

It won't be good and it won't be pretty and it will have an impact on what happens here in relation to Brexit in one way or another.

May seems to have headed off trouble makers for now. But that means nothing if she can't get a deal through parliament.

And if you think we are in anyway prepared for No Deal I'd like whatever drugs you are taking. That way lies only disorder and to put it bluntly, deaths.

We MUST find a deal, any deal to prevent that. Desperation is the final ingredients in this mess. Who will blink as they realise what's at stake?

The problem is though, is too few MPs have grasped what's at state, such is the quality of our elected representatives. And that's the truly terrifying bit.

If they can't work out the risk of no deal, they certainly not equipped to handle the fall out of no deal.

If you want to shit yourself anymore, I'd like to take this opportunity to remind you that the minister responsible for hauling all your food and medical supplies in the event if no deal, is Mr Christopher Grayling.

Start praying.

[The local force tweeted afterwards: "Please don't use a blowtorch to kill spiders."}
Sorry not very 'Brexity but a bit MumsNetty in that a guy was using a blowtorch to kill spiders and burned his parents house down.
'Don't try this in someone else's home'!

Pssst - Is the Telegraph Travel’s consumer editor indulging in Project Fear ? 😂

A good overview of the treaties and issues - worth reading (no paywall) - then his final statement:

https://www.telegraph.co.uk/travel/news/iata-brexit-flight-disruption/

“I personally will be avoiding any travel for at least a couple of weeks after March 29 because of the general risk of delays and disruption at borders.”

The French replying to Sun "Exclusive" :

Jean-Paul Mulot@jeanpaulmulot

French government has got no plans to close down #Calais:
lots of people confused about potential threats around No Deal.
Customs aren’t the issue, maybe delays due to eventual light sanitary controls & #brexit exit bill won’t trigger any suicidal economic mission by ports

< They don't need to block, just applying WTO rules - as they are obliged to do - would soon cause logjams and / very reduced throughput >

This was in reply to:


Tom Newton Dunn@tnewtondunn

Excl: Cabinet told France could wreak massive damage on Britain’s economy by closing down Calais under a no deal Brexit.

NO DEAL, NO CALAIS_ France threatens to block Calais port to the UK if we refuse to pay £39bn divorce bill in a No Deal Brexit scenario_

Re the med petition - I signed it before it got to 500 I think, sent it on to my whatsapp list including leavers and watched who signed it on the map. Very enlightening...
