This must surely lead to a General election at some point and then we will see which party is brave enough to campaign on a platform of No Brexit and if the Labor and Lib Dem parties are brave enough they will not put candidates up against each other and make sure the Tories lose enough seats to see a new government in place.
Varadakar made it clear there the republic had what it wanted. The UK will be permanently unable to diverge, whether with the backstop, or with a replacement. That means may can never get the DUP on board now, and the SNP will never vote for an arrangement that allows NI huge economic advantage over scotland. Only labour can save her now, or its a leadership challenge with bozo,javid or davies. There won't be a general election i feel, the tories are in no shape to fight one.
For all my frustration with corbyn his tactics have won through, he has may by the proverbials. What does he do next though ? What concessions can he force from her at this late hour ?
