Europe, Referendum & Brexit (formerly Europe..IN or OUT??)

I'm still waiting for the Brexiteers who led the Leave campaign to apologise for lying including their claims that the EU would be give us everything the Leavers claimed they would.

The EU would still have us to pay in our millions. But they would miss out on the 39 billion payout.
And they probably need that money to keep Greece and Italy afloat

May to go before May

Eh? I thought this billions of pounds 'divorce bill' was made up of commitments to spending that we had already made? AFAIK it wasn't a fee for leaving as such. If we stay in we will still end up paying this in other words, no? (Over a very long period obviously; same as the 'divorce bill' was to be paid over a very long period.)

Yeah for things like Farages and mandelsons Pensions and other things we have already agreed to

Yes if we stay in we will still pay the 39 billion (current estimate).

This is a direct quote from a House Of Commons briefing paper informing MPs on the principles of the financial settlement:

"the UK should neither pay more nor earlier than if it had remained a Member State"

Seriously do we need another day of debate surely all the windbags have spoken ad nausem for nearly 2 fucking years yet gotta hear them all over again

So the ERG didn’t back May’s deal because with the Irish backstop we could be trapped in a Customs Union. Labour want a Customs Union but did not back the deal even though it starts with the transition period and the final trade arrangement whilst not yet negotiated may have to be a Customs Union.

Corbyn wants a General Election and not a 2nd referendum and will likely call another no confidence vote next week at which point the ERG & DUP will probably back May again.

It really feels like Groundhog Day

This is very unlike me but does anyone know the procedure for sending that arrogant twat Steve Baker MP to that euthanasia clinic in Switzerland
