There’s little doubt that just about the worst thing that Theresa May has done during her short Premiership was the broadcast to the nation five nights go when she appeared to blame Parliament for the problems in getting her brexit deal approved. It was that apparent denial of the democratic process that has angered a lot within the House and outside.

"The fact that Special Counsel Mueller’s report does not exonerate the president on a charge as serious as obstruction of justice demonstrates how urgent it is that the full report and underlying documentation be made public without any further delay.
"Given Mr Barr’s public record of bias against the Special Counsel’s inquiry, he is not a neutral observer and is not in a position to make objective determinations about the report."
I also confess to being very surprised that people are still acting like her setting out her resignation plans would seal it for the deal. I can see why it would get things closer, but the only reason I can assume she has not already done it is because she adjudges, correctly, that her doing so would not seal the deal and since it is the very final move she could possibly make, why make it when it won't secure that deal?
It is BINO in its purest form.
If we take the Single Market or the Customs Union, then we can have our own trade policy or an end to freedom of movement. The combination of the two makes Brexit a total waste of time, which is the intention of Boles and his acolytes.

Thay are not that silly - or are they
On the bright side they will probably have more campaigning this time, usually they seem invisible round my way.

People keep using that as if it's a knockout argument against a long extension, but, of all the worries the general public have about delaying Brexit, I doubt that would be one of the main ones (after all, people who don't think we should be taking part in the elections can always choose to stay home).
More specifically, a tragedy in 3 acts.
I think he has more in Common with May than he thinks.
I would expect a poor third place on 20% of the vote.
And, er, not as much flexibility as Johnson!
There are a lot of ways in which they are technically deficient but the sliding pillar front suspension is particularly egregious - a technology that was largely abandoned by the motor industry before WW2. It is very maintenance intensive and doesn't camber out under compression which gives the car absolutely savage handling characteristics.
It's a rolling metaphor for Brexit: a poorly executed pastiche of something that never actually existed.
