Have I got this right?
They can't progress on the deal as parliament is blocking it.
A GE can't be called until Labour agrees to it.
Labour will never agree to it as they will be destroyed.
Now the EU are delaying their decision on an extension.This all just seems like a way to delay brexit indefinitely.
Boris has done his legal duty and asked for an extension, I say call everyone's bluff stick with your promise and leave with no-deal on the 31st, at this point you could even blame Labour for the decision.

@Rembrandt just as a matter of interest, what makes you think Labour would get destroyed? I’m expecting the right to get punished - and they probably deserve to - for presiding over this circus like a bunch of self-serving, backstabbing chancers. No party can claim to have acted consistently in the best interests of the country on this one. Both sides deserve to get flogged and I’m not convinced the supporters will turn out in great numbers to vote for their opponents but they probably, like me, don’t feel much like encouraging more of this shit either. I reckon turn out will be low and it’s anybody’s game. For the record I’ll vote Tory because I think voting is a duty, but I’ll feel shit doing it.

@JC That's a good point. Neither side have covered themselves in glory. The impression I get from my UK friends is that they are sick to death of Brexit talk and want it done, Boris seems to be the only one who wants to get it done and done fast, whereas Corbyn has flip flopped on where he stands and seems to be avoiding a GE at all costs.Polls seem to back that up but if Labour and Libdems were to somehow make peace that might change.

This election is Boris vs Corbyn. If JC wins, I leave.
Along with about a third of the population and 90% of the money.

It's official UK government and the EU agree an extension until January 31st.
But Parliament reject a December 12th GE. There seems to still be many ways the lower house can fuck things over.
What's the excuse for no GE?

The logical answer is fuck knows. I suspect the reality is a mixture of Brexit reluctance and party politics before good of the country. Either way, piss poor.

Official line is they don’t trust Boris.
I’m lost for words. Genuinely.
Surely if you don't trust the fluffybunny then agree to a GE and get the fluffybunny out.
But they and the Lib Dems know that by fucking around with Brexit neither will get in.

Hence lost for words. Nothing even makes sense anymore.

Will it work? In reality I don’t know ...
But I think Varadkar interview has pushed me into believing this is the right decison.
Good time to buy some NZD just in case?
