Saturday Brexit

Today, 100 Labour MPs and MEPs signed a letter to the party's National Executive demanding that the party's European Elections Manifesto induces the demand that whatever the Brexit outcome, there is a confirmatory referendum. So far, the Part's Leader and front bench have prevaricated rather than come up with an actual policy, meaning that voters don#t really know what the party stands for, especially as Corbyn is clearly a Brexiteer.

Sunday is the great day in UK politics, as the Sunday papers will have many columns written by leading figures in all parties, and then there are the Sunday morning politics show, where on a meekly and monthly basis, the lies and misinformation are never challenged.

And October 31st seems a mile away, but in reality there is little time at all, especially if reports that attitudes are hardening in Berlin and in other EU leaders who now seem to feel that the new deadline is also the final deadline.

I can't blame them, but what will the UK do then? The same three choice remain at the end of the day, the same three choices that have been on offer since December 2017.
