Does anyone remember the Conservative Party slogan from the last election?

I remember Brexit means Brexit, and no deal is better than a bad deal.

@SW-User That is another thing LOL. She said no deal was better than a bad deal for two years and then comes back with a bad deal.

@Burnley123 I'm beginning to think the most likely outcome is that we forget all about Brexit, or at least postpone it. It all depends on how many Conservatives are ready to press the self destruct button. Seems to be quite a few.

@SW-User I dunno. All I can say is that there are five possible outcomes from the Brexit process.

1) 2nd Ref
2) May's deal or something like it.
3) Norway for now.
4) Hard Brexit.

Now there are good reasons why every single one of these can't happen. Something has to give though.

@Burnley123
2nd ref is possible, but there is just as much disagreement on the question as there is on way forward. I dont think a simple two option question will give anything other than a near 50:50 vote, unless more options were included which could be very messy.

May deal looks dead in tbe water unless she can tweak it enough to get through parliament.

Norway for now seems pointless, its vitually EU membership without any say, just stay in.

Hard Brexit, could still be realistic option unfortunately.

@SW-User Its like I say, ALL options are impossible but something has to give. What you say is all true. I can also see May doing a month of pointless fake negotiations with the EU and then coming back to parliament and saying its my deal or hard-Brexit. Late January is the deadline and she is stubborn enough to take that risk for what she has committed too. In such a scenario and with a sinking pound, MPs will be under pressure.

@Burnley123 Yes, that looks to be her only strategy now.

@SW-User Indeed and its an awful strategy for the country. Nobody will be happy with this.
