I think Boris should strike a deal with the SNP, to support a second independence referendum in exchange for them backing his deal

Fuck that

It would be acceptable

Besides they would likely vote to stay in the UK anyway

It would be bad right now

After Brexit

Unless they mandated a 4 year delay on the vote

And then made brexit work and work well

He agrees to hold an independence referendum in a year or so in exchange for them backing his deal

It would likely get his deal passed

At the cost of the union

Assuming they vote to Leave

I don't think they would

@The Electric Lizard I'd be down for that

At the moment it's touch and go

THe reason I said a delay would be helpful is that it gives Boris a chance to put the country right before they voted

Thus giving him a chance to undo the damage to the vote that has been caused by the brexit debacle

I am going to predict it now, He will pass the deal

Well he would say that, he's high up in the media pecking order

Since I haven't really looked into it at all... how good/bad is BJ's deal?

Not much media attention to be got from "nope, it's not close"

May's deal but with NI a common trade zone, essentially

From what I understand

ye and NI has the power to step out every four years

he got that in

I think he conceded that ground @Αγωνιζῆς

hm I heard otherwise🤔

DUP are pissed because of the potential of some form customs border in the Irish Sea and because they originally had been promised a veto they no longer have

No he didn't @The Electric Lizard

GIving NI the power to change the arrangements are necessary for the Good Friday Agreement

DUP don't like it because it allows Unionists and Nationalists to require a majority between them both, and that might override Unionist votes, or something like that

But ironically the EU/Irish didn't like that because it takes power away from the EU

not sure if this was posted here yet

In case the deal is passed - which I doubt - the slime media won't hesitate to critize the deal as being a surrender for weeks and months. Probably until the next GE.
The big winner would be Nigel.

I've heard that the motion is his deal or no deal overriding the Benn act as if parliament doesn't vote for a deal it agrees to the default position of eu law and we leave no deal Oct 31st?

I think this vote is going to be very close

Nah, think Nigel is done

He'll have to revise his direction
