Theresa May's gamble has backfired - her MPs would sooner extend Brexit than accept her awful dealThe original Star Chamber was a courtroom in the old Palace of Westminster whose ceiling was emblazoned with golden stars on a background of lapis lazuli blue. They should vote nodeal. The anti brexit propaganda is bullshit. Uk would be cashing in not crashing out Empathy is not a vice.....it is a weapon, without it Tory is wandering in the dark...they should erect s statue of Corbyn,,,,,it is their biggest asset MPs can do what they like with Brexit but shouldnt vote for a bad Withdrawal Agreement. I prefer to Stay, agitate EUCO and Brussels from within, rather than have a bodged Leave! MPs will be held to account if they screw this up, a key outcome is better representation 🤷‍♂️
