"MP"s were issued an instruction by the British people.Given the Byzantine complexity of the Brexit process,it would be foolish to pretend it was a simple one. but it was clear.They were to withdraw the UK from the European Union."
"They refused.Granted 1,000 days to reach consensus on an exit strategy,they had neither the competence nor the courage nor the foresight nor the sense of national duty to construct one"
"Brexit is dead" the Minister told me."Some rebels might start to come round,but its too late. On monday the House of Commons will take control of the process and then its over"
"Brexit was supposed to be a moment of national catharis,instead,it is about to go down as the greatest fraud ever prepetrated upon the British people.Everything they were promised before,during and after was a lie,one vote and that vote would be honoured"

When you only have two options and they are both very unattractive - somebody still has to win.
You could frame a 2 horse race over 7f for 9yo maidens - there would still be a winner.
Difference is - you don't have to bet on the horse race and if you don't bet it has no impact on your life.

Jezza got two E grades at A-level and only lasted a year at London Metropolitan University, which is the lowest ranked University in the UK.  Intellectually he's totally out of his depth.

That said I imagine his relationship with Seamus Milne is similar to Orville The Duck's relationship to Keith Harris.

BREXIT is not a left/right issue, although the EU and EU law helps fight against the global trend towards the widening of the wealth gap and protects workers' rights which is obviously more in line with Labour philosophy.

Unfortunately as the result in Ebbw Vale shows many people who voted are completely ignorant to that.

I don't like Theresa May.  But it was the smart call (a no brainer really) for her to call an election to get BREXIT through when she made it.  It didn't work out that way, just like it didn't work out for Man City against Wigan in the Cup Final.  Sometimes the percentage call goes against you.

Labour are fudging hoping for an election, and no deal supporters are hoping that by blocking all attempts to get a deal through they might end up with no deal, and the LDs and SNP position is clear.  So she had no chance.
