Theresa May was handed a two-week deadline to resuscitate her Brexit deal last night after she caved to Tory Eurosceptics and pledged to go back to Brussels to demand changes to the Irish backstop.
With just 59 days to go until exit day, MPs narrowly passed a government-backed amendment, tabled by the senior Tory Graham Brady, promising to replace the Irish backstop with unspecified “alternative arrangements”.
But within minutes of the Commons result the European council president, Donald Tusk, announced that the EU was not prepared to reopen the deal.
“The withdrawal agreement is, and remains, the best and only way to ensure an orderly withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the European Union,” a spokesman for Tusk said. “The backstop is part of the withdrawal agreement, and the withdrawal agreement is not open for renegotiation.”

May needs someone to help her push this over the line, but who? Many former supporters have lost faith in her as a mover or shaker. What about that Boris Johnson character?
“Anthem of Europe” is the anthem of the Council of Europe and the European Union.[1][2] It is based on “Ode to Joy” from the final movement of Beethoven’s 9th Symphony composed in 1823, and is played on official occasions by both organisations.
Joy, beautiful spark of Divinity [or: of gods],
Daughter from Elysium,
We enter, drunk with fire,
Heavenly One, thy sanctuary!
Your magic binds again
What convention strictly divided;
All people become brothers,
Where your gentle wing abides.
Who has succeeded in the great attempt,
To be a friend’s friend,
Whoever has won a lovely woman,
Add his to the jubilation!
Indeed, who even just has one soul
To call his own in this world!
And whoever never managed, he should steal away
Crying from this union!...
May’s big problem now is dealing back with the EU.
Good luck with the French who see business opportunities.
We’re all bored of Brexit just as it’s getting interesting

If Brexit actually happens and the UK economy doesn’t go into a deep, bread line level recession for at least a full year, the EU... And the concept of one world government... Is done.
Well, maybe for at least another generation. But this incarnation would be done.
None of this would be happening if there was a president Clinton in office across the pond.

The biggest problem with all of this is that it is being negotiated by someone who never wanted to leave in the first place. A lot of Conservatives are big fans of Nigel Farage but when the going got tough he bailed out and they got stuck with Theresa May. You are seeing the result, which shouldn’t surprise anyone.
Better video I think

The chattering class said disaster would occur when the voters approved Brexit. Didn’t happen. Now the same Chicken Littles are predicting disaster if the UK leaves the EU without an agreement. Call their bluff, and crash out. The world won’t end, and there won’t be a disaster, even on the Irish border. Life will go on, with no fire & brimstone or planet Earth swallowing itself. The “Wimp Pees” in Parliament should follow the example of PDJT — TPP, Parish Accords, Iran Nuke Deal, American embassy in Israel, sanctions, tariffs — and grow a pair.
