Has completed and outwardly unperturbed, as always, the British Prime Minister on Tuesday for your short notice trip to Europe. When Visiting The Hague, Berlin and Brussels, Theresa May want to explore whether you can meet the allies in the Brexit. Meanwhile, the head of government at the London house was reprimanded again sharp that it had to be postponed on Monday the planned vote on the actually agreed to exit the EU Treaty. The Labour Opposition is considering a motion of censure against the government.
Before the meeting with German Chancellor Angela Merkel May have suffered a mishap: Briefly, the door of their Limousine was not open. All, cheerful Smile at the subsequent pressure of the hand, in Spite of could be the scene of a symbolic nature for your current situation. Trapped between incompatible Brexit-Ultras and the EU-friends in their own party, under pressure from the Opposition in the lower house and in the regions of the country, chased by Tory rival, the on your chair saws – for the Prime Minister, it seems to be politically hardly a way out.
In London varies the mood, compared to the 62-Year-old between pity and contempt. The London papers claimed on Tuesday morning with their headlines, the tone of the debate. “Mays last attempt”, was the headline in the “Daily Mail”, “May pleads in Europe to help”, was the conclusion of the “Times”, “May runs”, wrote the “Daily Mirror”. Little alignment realm, the Attempts to advertise on the continent for a realignment of the contract rails – to judge, at least according to the Preliminary statement of EU Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker. For renegotiation, there is no room, stated this categorically. A maximum of “clarifications” want to try the EU partners to come to May help to.
This should be all of those to be a little disturbing, especially to the so-called catch-all solution (backstop) for Northern Ireland. You should keep the green island in front of it, the barely perceptible border between the Republic of in the South, and the British province will limit to a tough EU-outdoor. Therefore, the backstop may be terminated only by mutual agreement between Brussels and London – a limitation of British sovereignty, which is the civil war of the past century, with more than 3500 dead and tens of thousands of injured due. “We will not let Ireland down,” said Juncker on Tuesday.
in Vain May has referred again and again to the fact that the backstop for both sides is uncomfortable. To emphasize this once again and to Express the firm will to reach agreement during the transitional phase until the end of 2020, is likely to be the most that the Prime Minister made in Brussels brings to the table in concession.
Only fear of Corbyn, the Torys are still holding makeshift together
In the house, you will achieve little success. More than 22 hours of net, the Prime Minister has confessed in the past two months the Parliament, we are eager statisticians may’s official residence in Downing Street. In fact, it was the last every week, sometimes several days in a row, the opportunity for members of all groups, verbal on the 62-Year-old beat. Also on Monday afternoon, May was almost three hours long, the indignation of all pages.
We could believe your “nothing more,” snorts the leader of the Northern Irish Protestant party, the DUP, Nigel Dodds. “The trust and credibility” of his party boss had lost it, claimed Andrew Bridgen, one of those around 30 Tory MPs who May have already expressed in writing their lack of trust. All the taunts, all the insults, in Spite of the Prime Minister, remained dominated and polite. Whether this is part of your problem?
Not a single Time May in the last few weeks has the opportunity to have a confrontation with one of the Brexit-Ultras used. They always appealed quite generally to the “sense of responsibility” of the MP of your party friends, you reap just resigned admiration for your stamina or smooth contempt. Only the fear of Labour opposition leader Jeremy Corbyn holds together the Torys are still makeshift.
The 69-year-old many years on the back benches, opened on Tuesday a special debate in the lower house with the cheerful remark, in his 35th Parliament years ago he had “sharp differences of opinion with the Prime Minister”. Never but he had become a witness of such a “terrible mess” on Monday, said Corbyn. “The Prime Minister of running from your responsibility.”
of Course, there are in his own party and in other opposition groups, many of which Corbyn said the same thing. On Monday evening, more than 60 deputies addressed an urgent appeal to the Labour leader: The time has now come for a no-confidence motion against the conservative minority government. The claim that smaller parties joined, led by the Edinburgh Minister Nicola Sturgeon. The “hullabaloo in Westminster” could not go further, the Chairman of the Scottish national party SNP.
That Corbyn and his faithful grace in the meantime, for a simple reason. In the case of a motion of censure, the Northern Irish DUP, the unpopular Prime Minister, the support, the vote would be lost for the Opposition. The at the recent Congress of the party adopted a strategy that Labour would have to then demand a second Referendum closed connect. This is to avoid the Brexiteer Corbyn.
