My prediction for Brexit:

We are heading for either something like May's deal or a no-deal. The opposition forces in Parliament don't have enough MPs and the Tory 'rebel remainers' never actually do any rebelling. May is winding the clock down to the deadline so that MPs will be left with a choice between her deal and no deal. Labour doesn't like her deal but will be blackmailed into abstaining because they can't in good conscience allow for a no-deal Brexit.

So we will end up with a crappy Brexit deal that nobody will be happy with. After that, I am predicting an ugly civil war in both major parties with the Tory right moving to depose May and the Labour right blaming Corbyn for a Brexit he couldn't have stopped and perhaps (if they have the balls) trying to form the oft-mooted breakaway party.

I want none of this to happen but it's all plausible.

One other option is Parliament rejects what she comes back with, and seizes the power against her and blocks a no deal situation and effectively cancels the whole thing in the interest of the country

@Longleggedlady You can't because Article 50 means that no-deal is the legal default option. MPs recently voted not to extend Article 50

And there is a ECJ court ruling that says it can be cancelled by Parliament

Perhaps it is time to reverse another process they chopped off King Charles head once,maybe it is time to take Parliament outside and chop off their heads

@Burnley123 perhaps we can reverse another process, they chopped off King Charles head once, maybe the time has come to take Parliament outside and chop off their heads now. After all it appears that Cromwell and co clearly made a mistake all the way back then.
