Of course they can, the point of allowing it for a GE is a shift in terms. If May tries to renegotiate on the same red lines then yes they'll refuse but if she reaches out on a cross party basis to come up with something that will command a majority (if possible) they'll extend. That's the main point of the discussed july extension.
The direction of travel is for a better deal for them.
In the (unlikely) event of a no- deal, what happens to the small matter of the £39 thousand million pounds?
I feel like her resigning would leas to a full on apocalypse.Better not fecking resign.
And then what? She certainly cannot expect more favourable terms after this public humiliation.She's going to go back to the EU.
Yeah, I only meant he won as in he resisted the demands of the Vatican, he made loads of mistakes in general. I thought the Elizabethan age is generally regarded as pretty successful for England really, she was just a bit shit at propagating. Would I have the monasteries back though, owning half of England and dictating the politics of the day? Hell no, but again, it's just a pity he wasted the cash the way he did. A little part of me is saying we might be getting a bit off topic as well - but you started it.
That's optimistic.I feel like her resigning would leas to a full on apocalypse.
Its easy to judge history now but that's not the correct way to see things. You need to see things from his perspective. Tudor took a stable and respectable kingdom to the brink of civil war and invasion. Smallfolk were left dying on both sides (first Catholics, then Protestants under Mary, then Catholics again) and his dynasty ended after 1 generation. His crown ended up first to Mary, the very daughter of the woman he turned against then to Elizabeth the daughter of the woman he executed.
Regarding monasteries, I agree wholeheartedly and I assure you no one understand the injustice of a rich church in a poor country then I do. This situation survived in Malta well past medieval times, as the church and the British empire agreed not to step at each other toes. It was only after independence when Mintoff finally put the church in place and it was a fight him and his supporters (including my grandfather) had to fight for inch by inch and suffer a horde of injustices because of it. Yet, you also need to understand the times too. During the medieval times, that wealth could end up either to the church whom, with all its weaknesses, did care for the poor else it would end up in the hands of nobility who didn't share any love for the poor.
Then stall as long as she can.And then what? She certainly cannot expect more favourable terms after this public humiliation.
From the EU's perspective, only two options remain: no deal or no Brexit.
She should just resign. Let Boris and his ilk sort the mess they created
Let me guess, Corbyn would go get a better deal, except actually he wouldn't get anything because the EU have no cause to have to concede anything have have made it crystal clear they won't.
So it's complete chaos and ruin or cancel the whole thing, but the country is run by morons so it'll be the chaos option.
The health secretary is getting roasted on BBC2![]()
What's going to happen if Corbyn gets in and gets no better of a deal, surely all the Tories would vote that down and we'd be right back to here.
