Friday Brexit

Today, it emerged that the Labour leader is trying to get Parliament recalled, as we get nearer, day by day, to Brexit day. Its like he could hear the clock ticking.

But it is still his (Corbyn's) assertion that in the event of May's deal being voted down, the Government falling and their being an election, under Corbyn, Labour would campaign on a ticket to renegotiate the WA with the EU.

It is at this point I should state that an election would take at least six weeks to run, and then the preamble to that another few weeks, meaning there really is no time for an election unless we (the UK) were to ask the EU for an extension in the A50 process.

And for a party campaigning on reopening the WA, something which the EU has said, time and time again, is not going to be looked at again, would be no basis for an extension.

So, tomorrow, it will be three months to Brexit day, and the main to UK parties are still negotiating with each other. Something that has not changed for the last 21 months.

And yesterday, the Home Office released details of how EU citizens should apply for residency after Brexit, meaning that despite having the right to live and work in UK now, they would have to reapply and prove their right all over again.

This is not what was promised and when suggested that this would take place, Brexiteers labelled this "more project fear".

So this is how we treat our closest friends and neighbours.

And the phone app created does no work on Apple products, just Android, although the app itself does not work when trying to upload documents. We have a Keystone Government, only this is people's real live they're fucking about with.
