Is an independent Scotland without the transfer of wealth from it's southern neighbor economically stable enough to be of any value to the EU? They don't need another country that will drain the system.
Will other "wealthy-ish" countries bail out of the EU?
a couple of million pounds in oil per day! and even without oil it would hardly faze the scotish economy, accouting for near 1/5 of gbp, with less than 10% of the population. an independent scotland would become an economic powerhouse. joining the eu would probably be worse for us than the past 300 years have been.

Agreed.
But I think the term "stagger on" is in order here. And she has decided to 'reach out' to fellow parliamentarians - to achieve what,if her red lines remain, and the EU is steadfast?
Something has to give, and it can only be May and her rotten, useless government.

What I don’t get is why did she go ahead with the vote yesterday when she knew it wasn’t going to go through. She did manage to unite the remainers and Brexiteer protestors outside parliament which makes me think theres some sort of tactic at play here.

Because she was forced to, the Grieve Amendment basically nailed her to the cross; she would have delayed the vote until the 28th of March with just no deal or her deal staring the government in the face. To all of those dicks who voted for sovereignty, last night was the 24 caret type; you voted for nothing.
She united them because her deal is shit.

You’d have thought they’d have come up with some amendments though, knowing it wasn’t popular before Christmas.
They should’ve put a brexiteer in charge of the Tories but even the Tories didn’t want to do that when the chips were down.
Dunno why Corbyns bothering with the no confidence vote. Brexitshambles!

Brexiteer in charge? Rabb, Johnson or Davis who were ministers for brexit and the Foreign Office who all ran away or did fuck all when they had the chance? Meanwhile Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe crouches in a cell on hunger strike with suspected breast cancer and no hope of treatment, thanks to Johnson.
Pick your heroes.
