The north and south always overlooks the midlands. We're not southern enough or northern enough 😢

When really we are BEST OF BOTH. Grin

I got the impression that TM is desperately hoping that the indicative votes will fail so we can go back to vote for my deal or its no deal/no brexit.

My middle bit voted leave too.

Declaring everything North of say Lincolnshire as 'Scotland' could be good, keeping and wisely rejuvenating Sheffield Manchester, Leeds etc picking up manufacturing capability and so on.

I forget the name of the MP who said it, but whoever he was he was spot on. Theresa May says she's looking for compromise but actually what she after is capitulation.

Ok, but what about the Midlands?

I used to live in the midlands. I haven't forgotten you.

How about this...the whole of England can declare independence from the UK and request to join Scotland (on the assumption that Scotland is going to be voting for independance any day).

This is my new plan.

BiglyBadgers · 25/03/2019 17:40

We can be the United Lands of Free Wessex and Scotland.

TheABC · 25/03/2019 17:40

I am pinning my hope to the House of Lords motion that basically said if nothing is agreed, the PM revokes. It would be a fitting end.

GeistohneGrenzen · 25/03/2019 17:41

Bigly it's a good 'un Grin

BiglyBadgers · 25/03/2019 17:41

Though I am open to other names if Midlands and the North aren't happy with either being part of Wessex or Scotland.

All the leavers can go live on the Isle of Wight.

I'm in Yorkshire but I'm happy to be classed as Wessex Grin

I liked that too. So very true!

Rees Mogg's majority = 10235
Number of revoke signatures in his constituency = 9918
just saying Grin

TheElementsSong · 25/03/2019 17:47

DH was saying, if only the UK was a giant sliding block picture puzzle and we could slide all the Leave areas into one group and the Remain areas into another. And build a big fucking wall.

As Nish Kumar observed, that is where they make white people ....

prettybird · 25/03/2019 17:47

I'll remind Westministenders for the name that dh came up for rUK (as it was called during the Indyref) after the EU Referendum, when it was obvious that Scotland was going to be dragged out against its clear will (and contrary to the assertions made during the Indyref campaign to ensure a No vote Angry) Angry

Now there's a challenge on the way to the Leadsom level of 17.4 million.

Amendments to voted on tonight as follows (From the Guardian)

John Bercow, the speaker, says he has selected three amendments for the Brexit debate.

  1. Labour’s amendment. This calls on the government “to provide sufficient parliamentary time this week for this house to find a majority for a different approach”.

  2. Oliver Letwin’s amendment. This calls for Commons business on Wednesday to be set aside for a series of indicative votes. It does not specify what options will be voted on, or how the votes will take place.

  3. Dame Margaret Beckett’s amendment. This says that if the UK is seven calendar days from leaving without a deal, the house should be recalled to consider a motion on whether or not MPs approve such a move.
