Please tell me how both is possible, as much as I hate the Tories, Corbyn really is a prat and is acting like a child. |  |

I enjoy the fact he has alluded to putting more motions of no confidence in the Govt before Parliament. Havent we already decided that one last night, Jez? Didnt we already have that vote? |  |

He doesn't want a no deal Brexit, quite the opposite in fact. |  |

I'm certainly no fan of his but I'm pretty sure a no-deal Brexit is precisely what he doesn't want.
He said last night he wouldn't meet May until she guaranteed no deal was off the table. [Post edited 17 Jan 2019 12:02]

He wants May to take No Deal off the table, so quite the opposite. He is a prat though! |  |

The public and house of commons have repeatedly remubled his contrarian and naïve approach to everything. The prospect of him near government has served to strengthen one of the least popular PMs in recent history, at key times. That's not a good opposition. |  |

He's the ITFC of politics. Weak on defense, toothless in attack, virtually pointless, but inexplicably well-supported by a relatively large minority. | |

Why are so many of Labour MPs so scared to speak against the man. Appreciate there is the threat of de selection to many but there have been a few this morning saying he should at least give the PM time. If he is so scared then send Keir Starmer or Tom Watson.
But if all the other parties are prepared to talk then why not him.
What is the man scared of!! |  | | |

So he takes a stance against neo-liberalism and imperialism and this is considered bad opposition. In your opinion he should sign up to a failed dogma that many who helped construct are now coming out against.
Olivier Blanchard (formerly IMF) has come out against government debt nonsense pedalled by Rogoff and spouted by out of date Tory ideologs. May is still talking negatively about Labour's investment plan whilst leading economists are fleeing from her position. |  | | |

He wants to take no-deal off the table. Herein lies the problem.
That can only happen if:
Parliament accepts the withdrawal agreement +/- any tweaks the EU will now permit
or
The UK cancels A50.
There are no other options.
May is hardly going to agree to his proposal now, is she? | | | |

The first duty of Her Majesty' Loyal Opposition is to be contrarian. |  |

Labour invest in services and infrastructure, Tories prioritise low tax and a self serving economy. This is not news.
There are beneficiaries and losers under both models. The country favours the former under the current respective leaders, as corroborated by the last two elections. The second labour get a leader and rheotric that even slightly appeals to the masses beyond the normal, boring class divisions with some economic creditbility, they'll romp the next election.
It's the inevitable cycle of our politics but labour need to go and get it. | |

I'd imagine (and hope) that that particular threat is only to be used if May's 'constructive talks' turn out to be precisely the same as her last round of constructive talks.
She needs to sit down and work on a compromise, rather than trying to win people over to her way of thinking.
If she gets the various opposition parties into a room and just tries to sell her deal to them once again, then I'd fully back another motion of no confidence, given that last night's was lost based on promises of compromise. |  |

You've gotten a bit muddled here.
Yes JC is acting like a child not speaking to the PM, however he doesn't want a no-deal brexit. He actually wants the unicorn deal whereby we are in the customs union and single market but we don't have to accept EU rules on freedom of movement.
At present there is no viable deal being proposed by any of the leaders. At the moment it's realistically remain or no-deal.

No it wasn't. It was lost because Tories can out vote rest.
Whoever sits down with PM will soon realise that this was EU terms not hers! |  | | |

Did you hear any of the late night stuff yesterday?
Sounds like get the 'no deal' off the table is in the ascendancy
That looks confirmed by the brexiteers reportedly forming a break-away group to ask the EU for a 1 year extension and for the EU to hep ina 'managed brexit' scenario-?
& you think Corbyn is deluded? | | | |
