    Daithi isn't the worst -openly admits to reading the Racing Post and stops off in Domino's at least once a week.

    Fine but talking about Trump's manners? What next, me talking at an AA meeting?

    About time both sides put their money where their mouths are.

    If Leavers are so confident that they still have the majority, why reject a second referendum?

    If Remainers think that the mood has changed for good, then vote for a regular, periodic (every 5 years) referendum.

    If Parliament can't agree on a course of action, I think that they should have another referendum with two choices:
    - stay in the EU as is but commit to change from the inside and a referendum every 5 years.
    - leave with no deal on 29th March because no-one can now be in any doubt of the consequences.

    Have the vote on Saturday, 26th January and Sunday, 27th to maximise numbers. No need for a long campaign and no need for big campaign budgets.
    The older I get the better I was.

    It's a measure of the crisis in British politics that the Next Prime Minister market resembles what you'd see for a big Saturday handicap.

    Never would have thought Corbin to be favorite in this race. Probably observing this from too far away.
    ROLL ON THE RESISTANCE !!!

    TM faces a no confidence vote later today ( that always strikes me as weird. Clearly it’s already happened for the press to be telling us about it!) can’t wait to find out what happens next... *

    Good grief; this country is in the biggest mess that I can ever remember and the very people who brought about the referendum are now fighting to be PM [Greasy Smogg et al]. What a mess this country is in. As a Labour voting Corbyn sceptic I'm actually hoping for some kind of Labour/SNP/Green/LibDem coalition to come out of all this.

    Hopefully, she's gone tonight; no more weak-kneed pussy footing around, or capitulating at every turn.
    Imho, what the country needs now is strong leadership from someone who'll stand up for Britain, and point out to the EU exactly what they'll be losing if the UK does exit, and able to renegotiate the whole sorry mess from a more level playing field.
    Failing success by that, there's always the backstop of walking away completely, and us deciding what financial penalties are due - in either direction.

    Forecasting the result of secret ballots is a fool's game: saying one thing in public, doing the opposite in private is a trait particularly applicable to duplicitous MPs. That said, I'd be surprised if May loses this confidence vote; though whether she'll feel the backing she'll be given will be strong enough to carry on is another matter. Knowing her and her deeply buried super-glued leopard skin heels, she will

    Respectfully RH, I tend to think that the EU are grown up and organised enough to have worked out exactly what 'they'll be losing' and have probably been working that out since June 24th 2016. Additionally I think the £39Bn forfeit would be regrettable but absorb-able in an $19Trillion GDP aggregate economy.

    Won't happen. That type of leader looks great for the over-50s Tories and similar voters, but, rightly, will not enjoy the support of Parliament. That means any no-deal "negotiated" with the EU will not get through Parliament. Back to square one, and worth re-iterating that it is the EU who actually hold the cards. Not us.

    Talk of level playing-fields displays an ignorance that fails to account for the unity of 27 nations standing shoulder-to-shoulder, ranged against the biggest collection of delusional incompetents, ever assembled as a UK Govt.

    Last thing needed now is a change in 'leadership', whether anyone thinks the present incumbent is doing a good job or not. Idiot MPS.
