This cabinet is like a horrible game of musical chairs, except chairs really isn’t the C word I’m actually thinking of.
I might be totally thick here but can somebody explain what Theresa May is actually negotiating for?? I thought the whole point of Brexit was to leave the EU and that's it??
If the country has voted to leave, surely they knew what the implications were? I don't understand why and how Britain expects to leave on its terms.

If Farage hadn't noticed, the UK will also be leaving the EU in March 2019. From whom are the UK going to be independent, reality? No, done that.
It's not you who's thick. May is wanting to leave the EU but keep all the benefits of being in the EU. Unsurprisingly this negotiating stance will definitely not work.
Surely his anti-abortion stance will go down like a lead balloon?
May will probably give him £1bn out of habit.
@ titleWith the country, I'd hope so. With Tory MP's and members, I doubt it.
So Britain wants to have its cake and eat it?? It's so wrong! So what's happened to all the Brexit MEANS Brexit rhetoric???
Please tell me that's a library photo and he didn't actually pose for one with his resignation letter.
Of course he did. Boris' media chums putting him over as the saviour of Brexit.
And you’d have to step over the craters caused by the inevitable border bombs
And this is just the start of it. There's no way that whatever gets agreed in the next 9 months will be the end of it. We're looking at years and years of endless Brexit talk, political infighting, governments being brought down etc etc.
So they should be moaning, the greatest rip off ever was the euro. I'm not an old fecker like you but i would have been pissed off, i still hate the euro to this very day.
Dear Theresa, I wrote you but still ain't calliing
All the main positions are now run by remainersJeremy Hunt replaces Boris
She's running out of allies to fill positions with!
He was a remainer too so this will go down like a cup of cold sick.
Is it too late for the UK to abandon leaving plans completely and stay fully within the EU?
But the Brexit secretary is a leaver!
He will resign soon
But he just got the job!
It wouldn't need to be in Scotland, but considering how much she's talked up her credentials up here and how much she's talked about standing up for Scotland, she'd catch a reasonable amount of flak if she moved down south for the convenience of not being an MP here. At best she could maybe take Mundell's seat if he ever fecks off because that's as close as you get to a safe Tory seat north of the border...but even then, there's still an element of risk. But yeah, her fecking off down south might kinda damage the Tory vote up here and lose them some of the seats they've gained.
That's Theresa screaming in the trunk.
Yes.

Dear Mrs "I'm Too Good To Commit to a Hard Brexit"
This will be the last package I ever send your ass
It's been two years and still no word, I don't deserve it?
BBC news spinning it as "strengthening May's position."
Auntie propaganda .

I mean...for as bad as it all is, you could argue that if she pulls through then it has. Gotten rid of Boris and replaced him with a Remainer, and gotten rid of Davis who's been a massive pain in the arse for her. True, her position remains tenuous, but by sheer virtue of the fact that nobody else seems to want to be the one who deals the mess of Brexit, she might last for a while yet.
Nope. If the UK government wanted to pull article 50, it’s not like the EU are going to just take a big economic hit from a hard Brexit just on a small legal technicality.
It puts all her enemies outside the cabinet though, and that’s dangerous. That old adage about keeping your friends close is appropriate here.
Why does nobody in the leave camp have the balls to grab this thing by the throat and directly challenge May?
Sort of...but then if they don't challenge now then they're demonstrating they don't have a leg to stand on, and that they don't want to deal with Brexit at all.
Because most of them realise their vision of a hard Brexit is pure fantasy, and none of them particularly want the responsibility of it ultimately failing. Easier to let May fluff Brexit and try to take over afterwards.
But they want it to happen, yes? FFS if you believe in it then fecking stand up for it.
Some do. Boris is probably the most prominent of them and never really cared either way. His plan was for Leave to lose and then win props with the membership and Eurosceptic MP's when Cameron stepped down a year or so afterwards. Others like the idea of it but have deluded themselves into thinking it'd somehow be workable with issues like NI etc, and have privately probably realised it doesn't work. Others who like the idea of it realised it wouldn't work and just backed it to advance their careers within the Tory party.
