Theresa Mays Brexitavtal fell in the british parliament earlier in January. And yesterday it was time for the same parliament to begin to tell Theresa May what you want to see for options.
the Clock is ticking namely. If nothing is done the country will crash out of the EUROPEAN union on the 29th of march without an agreement. Economically, it would be a disaster.
But also politically: it is difficult to think of any single event that equally the could lead to Scotland, and perhaps northern Ireland, leaving the Uk. And to the united kingdom as we know it thus ceases to exist as a country.
out of the EU, most people want to prevent. The parliament adopted yesterday a decision to not support such an outcome. But there are as many quickly pointed out, a bit like the crew of The Titanic had voted on that the iceberg would move on.
So long as you don’t also change course: is it still straight into the ice that one father.
Prime minister Theresa May needed yesterday achieve a single thing: some sort of consensus. Shall we round the iceberg on the right side? Or on the left? Or, should we simply decide to slow down by just the?
Theresa May had had one; around the some form of plan. She had been able to go back to Brussels, bringing the rest of the EU (who are in deep sleep of pure Brexitutmattning) and say: ”look, now we have, in fact, specifically us!”
(possibly) been prepared to start to negotiate with her again. For what is the point to devote a lot of time to change in Brexitavtalet if Theresa May can’t guarantee that the changes you make also to the fact that the agreement has a chance to be approved in London?
All this did Theresa May. And it was for this reason that she yesterday called on the house to vote on a proposal that is meant to try to change the controversial solution of the boundary between northern Ireland and Ireland.
Theresa May wanted to be able to demonstrate to the EU that if the EU just agreed to renegotiate a little bit in this issue, the parliament in London to give in.
Writing on the final agreement.
And let her steer the ship away from the iceberg.
is also in the rest of the EU’s interest. Not least economically.
But Theresa May did not quite manage. The proposal, which she supported went although in the parliament. But not with any resounding majority. In particular, the prime minister forced to buy the most hard-line brexitörernas votes by promising the renegotiation also of the text itself, in utträdesavtalet.
And to this, the EU has said no.
having created a consensus in the parliament around a solution that is not possible to implement. The uk has voted in favour of a u-boat constructed by the ost to come and rescue them. And Brussels has responded that any such u-boat is simply not possible to build and that you really do not intend to devote the next EU meeting to try.
About.
in other words, not very much happened. The boat has not changed its course. The iceberg is still there (the 29:th of march, leaving the Uk EU in one way or another). Possibly it is the conservative party a little more united than it was last week. But it says on the other hand, not much: in two conservative mps usually go three different views on Brexit.
the Journey simply continues.
