And where on that chart should Scotland’s flag go?

I think that whether it is UK policy that there never be a hard border between Ireland and N Ireland is very much in question at the moment.
No deal brexit = hard border between Ireland and N Ireland.
Sources please.
All the recent polls I have seen have remain as the most popular option.

Could have phrased that better I suppose;
depending on how the options are presented as choices some polls predict a majority for ‘no deal’.
Behind a paywall, soz.
Corbyn has just called for a vote of no confidence in the government after the biggest government defeat in history.

She’s back from the bar and she has a, what is that container, I’ve never seen the like of it before, but a super large quantity of humiliating defeat with her.
Best update that graph…

She knocked it out of the park! Take that McDonald! Your 80 year record is smashed!
118 Tories voted against her.
I’m not sure how she can hang on.

I’m fairly sure that there are only two options practically possible at this point: A no-deal, hard Brexit, or no Brexit. The EU is not going to start renegotiating things at this point, and there’s no time for anything else.

If the government loses the vote of no confidence then she might stay around for the election campaign, because you don’t want a leadership election in the middle of purdah. I don’t think there is any legal reason that the Tories couldn’t do that, it just seems like a really bad idea.
If they win then she’ll probably resign. Either way, I think Brexit is postponed.

I have been pointing out this problem repeatedly. My meds are technically not essential for my survival, but if my depression gets worse (which it will if Brexit happens) then I have an increased risk of suicide attempts without them.

This is EXACTLY the kind of minutiae the 'Leave means Leave" knuckle draggers are missing.
This and things like medical radionuclide delivery.
Things that leave people dead.

What worries me is that some of them may view that as a positive.

It is still the official line on all sides.
I agree that that position seems to be untenable if the backstop is to avoided (as I said above).
