Brexit - this week.

What the UK press says will happen:

  • Tonight - May's vote will be defeated, mainly because remainers want a softer deal 
  • Tomorrow - No Deal will be voted down
  • Thursday - they will vote to ask for an extension to negotiate a whole new deal
  • Friday - the EU will ask how many days, weeks or years they'd like and start the new negotiations
  • Every group, from ERG to Remain think they will be able to get exactly what they want.
What the foreign press says will happen:


  • Tonight - May's vote will be defeated, mainly because remainers want a softer deal
  • Tomorrow - No Deal will be voted down
  • Thursday - they will vote to ask for an extension to negotiate a whole new deal
  • Friday - the EU will roll their eyes, say the UK has put no new ideas on the table and say their very max is a six week extension till the EU elections but they'd prefer no extension at all
  • Remainers will wonder why they didn't vote for May's deal and then spend the transition period negotiating a softer Brexit. ERG will jump with joy as No Deal kicks in.
