    Dont relax yet - the current default is the UK leaves on 12 April, without a deal.
    Only if something not currently being formally proposed by UK or EU27 happens, can that change

    Im still quite worried that we will still find ourselves out with no plan and no transition on April 13 though you have to hope some common sense will occur and either we will have a long extension or (much less likely revoke) until the government figures out what to do.

    Will May quit now and if so which of the current shower will grasp the poisoned chalice next - hard to see any of the leading candidates doing any better especially the leading Brexiteers who have demonstrated a complete lack of understanding of how to go about leaving in a controlled manner can work
    Cf @bydonkeys twitter feed for plenty of example as to why none of them are fit to be PM

    I'm going Customs Union, with an extended delay to allow for a confirmatory referendum.

    What a shambles May have led here. It was never going to get through and she's literally wasted months trying to get it through. The stubborn cow needs to resign immediately and let someone who's actually going to progress this get on with the job.

    It'll still happen and if not there'll be riots of the like we've never seen - lose/lose whether we leave or stay in my opinion. Make no mistake we're firmly ensconced in **** creak without a paddle.

    Nope. A couple of days of blokes in high-viz vests scuffling with coppers and shouting at politicians and that'll be it.

    I’m in Lanzarote from the 11th of April. Let’s hope I get trapped in some Brexit based disruption

    I would not be so sure. Didn't the Irish post a few presents recently. A wee warning of what might come should they not get their way.

    Ahh those daft cnuts, yes - probably - but not the 'riots' predicted above. Middle-England will have latched onto some other tabloid cause célèbre after a couple of weeks - migrants, the weather, Maddy McCann, Meghan vs Kate, Corbyn etc etc

    Well I hope not but with the country split 50/50 anything is possible. Lunatics on both sides

    I'm in France that week as well, last thing I want to be doing on a holiday is following Brexit events on the 10th and 11th to see if my drive back becomes a lot more complicated - still already shelled out on International driving permit and got a green card just in case
