• ^ good point. If Labour/someone/anyone asked to extend A50, in order to renegotiate the WA with the aim of staying in the Single Market, which they believe they could get through parliament, would the EU be willing?

    No one is, though.

    Labour is saying "Single Market", but what they then go on to describe is a single market for Capital, Goods and Services - but not, erm, Labour. And that's impossible.

    Labour has the same red-line on FoM as the Tories, and as we've been told for over two years, the four freedoms are indivisible.

    Also, there's no time. and we've pissed any goodwill up the wall.

    We have to sign the WA, get into transition, then negotiate as a third country.

    That, no-deal, or remain, are the only options available to us.

  • That, no-deal, or remain, are the only options available to us.

    Taking this ^ as a lemma:

    1) The WA will not got passed, not enough votes.

    2) No Deal is unpopular enough to be avoided at all costs (see Finance Bill amendment defeat).

    3) Ergo, the third possibility is the only one that, uh, remains.

    I look forward to keeping my red passport.
