I promised that a "May deal with some amendments" would be passed by Parliament.
It's certain that Boris's deal will be further watered down if and when the EU come to the table, so whether or not the final deal meets that description may be up for debate, but I think we can safely say at this point that I was a lot more right than certain people gave me credit for all those months ago (I'm looking at your Burney and WES)
Er yes - which is why I mentioned only Blackford and McDonnell.
The other interesting part of all this is if they do get demolished, what happens then within the Labour party? In order to get back to New Labour and become electable they need to take control back from the unions and I'm not too sure how they do that. Or is there a candidate that McCluskey, Lavery et al could support that is electable?
:rubchin:
Simply wrong. All I ever said about No Deal is that if it ever came to a vote on the eve of us leaving with No Deal, Labour MPs would vote it through, or at least would abstain en masse so that it passed.
As for May's deal, at various points between MV1, 2 & 3 I said it would pass with amendments. And had Geoffrey Cox ruled that the modest changes to the backstop that May secured prior to MV3 were legally binding, it would have passed. As it stands, it now appears I was one round of negotiations out with my prediction.
So yeah, I'd say I've come out looking pretty f*cking right on balance.
No show some f*cking humility and admit it :-D
