EU referendum, brexit and the aftermath

No it’s not, Vauxhall voted 77.6% to remain.

Can you provide a primary source? Did you check mine?

Edit: Remember voting was not by constituency, but by borough, so remapping to constituency needs adding up counts from individual wards.

Edit 2: at this point I really should have rechecked the numbers...

It says so in the bloody link you posted!

Er...

Apologies...

I have somehow looked at completely the wrong columns.

Sorry.

I think I need another Lemsip.

No need to apologise at all, it was a misunderstanding.

Anyway, when's the next WA vote? Or is it not yet scheduled? What happens if that passes given the "delay" motion already passed?

Edit: ok, Tuesday is the answer. And the delay vote wasn't binding.

I am the Duke of Edinburgh.
Edit: just checked, I am not the Duke of Edinburgh.

Racist.

Anyway, looks like whether May's deal gets passed or not depends on how many Labour MPs vote for it;

They're mugs if they don't get a hundred million each for their vote, based on the DUP that's the going rate.

No need to apologise at all

You're clearly not even British!

Ester McVey has apparently confirmed she would put herself forward as a candidate in a leadership election... I appreciate that the bar is low, but is there no end to the delusions of adequacy in the Tory party?!

delusions of adequacy

Depends if the 'Grayling faction' are urging their guy to run.

Consider the standard for "leadership with TV background" in the US and it will all make sense.

*heads to supermarket to start hoarding

Their Anti-Money Laundering push is going so well though...

Sounds like 78 people on the #marchtoleave today, including photographers and journalists at the start. Farage is in London doing his radio show. Wonder how many will finish today? Shouldn't be a 60%+ drop out rate today like yesterday as the weather is a lot nicer.

Someone else said 77 (inc photographers and journalists) I presumed this doesn't included that Farage.

To honour the Brexit Leaver, the Tees Transporter Bridge is currently closed today.

(It's closed on Sunday anyway, and it's part of the route).

Do you think Chris Grayling organised the timetable?

My David Cameron story (Needs own thread?)

We were holidaying in Ely. around 5 years ago. Went to visit the Cathedral which was closed for a special (secret) Service. Went around the back to see if there was a way to sneak in. Found back door along a narrow passage and tentatively tried the handle. The door flew open, by the hand of David Cameron and we doorstepped danced awkwardly for a few seconds, he looked petrified, real fear in his eyes. a security guy pushed in front of him and bumped me and my gf out the way and they scurried off. All too quick to consider any punching.

Seems he was escaping early from a christening of one of his toff mates

Hammond says deal won't be put back to vote unless DUP backs it. But some Tory hardliners may now vote for it.

But with no vote, there is no way to get the WA passed with referendum option.

Meanwhile Corbyn still thinks his eternal backstop deal may be a seller.

I'm still not sure there will be another ref it's going to be another nailbiter of a Wednesday.

And the EU is getting fedup too, it's along extension and seating MEPs or none potentially.

Sovereignty intensifies 🙄

Was that your "scary side" Cameron met? :)
