The prime minister’s planned departure will makes comparatively little difference to the immediate question of how to get Britain out of its present difficulties

, whatever they may be. Increasingly, public opinion is turning against Brexit as the harsh realities of its consequences become known and understood; and a second referendum looks to be the only sensible way out of the stalemate prevailing in parliament.

nickysamaz How many of those leaders in parliament would really want to wear PM’s theresa_may shoes right NOW? A selfish Revolutionist mindset is sabotaging efforts made🤷🏿‍♂️😢 Only history will judge her well for honouring the WILL of the people of this GREAT NATION - Is there not a cause🇬🇧

She looks like the wicked witch that just witnessed snow white eat her apple. Too bad the British took 5 bites of that foolery.

Just now need Corbyn,McDonnell,Abbott,Johnson & Rees-Mogg to announce they'll resign & this clusterfuck will have been worth it

The thing was a waste if time. Might as well stay in Europe

No a general election no more referendums if you ignore the first one no point in a second one election decides for brexit or against

Shorter Independent: we hate democracy when it doesn't end in the result we want.

Ok. Second referendum question: Hard Brexit or Brexit with negotiated trade and immigration deals? There should be no other option.

At the beginning of a historic week on Brexit, Theresa May has told MPs she will not be bringing back her deal for a third vote as there is ‘still not sufficient support’ for it. No way So much for democracy. What a joke.

May tells Johnson: I will not step aside to solve Brexit crisisPrime minister makes clear in private meeting with potential successor she plans to stay put Yes because you've done such a great job of it so far Mrs May! Trouble is who could replace her if she quits? There's not exactly a wellspring of talent in the Tory party. 'May survived a vote of no confidence in her leadership of the Conservative party in December and cannot under party rules be challenged for 12 months after, making it difficult for her to be ousted unless there is a widespread, open revolt against her.' JRM such an idiot...
