Tory leadership candidate Jeremy Hunt has warned that his party will be committing "political suicide" if it tries to push through a no-deal Brexit.

The foreign secretary is one of 10 people seeking to replace Theresa May.

... "Trying to deliver no deal through a general election is not a solution; it is political suicide," he writes.

It would "probably put Jeremy Corbyn in No 10 by Christmas."

Judging from the election they just had, the party is already dead.

I’m okay if the Nigel Farage buzz saw dismembers the Tory zombie.

Evidently this wannabe prime minister has failed to learn the lesson so plainly dealt him by the electorate. Actually this is not so surprising, it is not clear that the rinos in the House of Representatives learned the lesson of 2018 and it is perfectly clear that Mitch McConnell has not learned that lesson.

Betray the base and the base will eventually turn on you or, better put, turn you out.

One side needs to pick white roses and the other side red roses, and then have at it.

----------------------------

The lies and back pedaling by your own Mz May is what will put Labor in 10 Downing street. She was a Remainer through and through and sacrificed the PM position rather than carry out the will of the people. She had three years to negotiate "a fair deal or no deal" and refused to do either.

May will go down in history as a scoundrel but always loyal to her globalist roots.

If this really had been a second referendum on Brexit, what would the results have been?

These charts show that Remain would have won, easily.

What a load of crap. You can’t exclude Tory and Labour when both of those parties have respecting Brexit (ostensibly) on their manifesto. I also know loyal green party voters who voted leave and haven’t changed their mind on that score but vote Green because the environment is their top concern.

How not to enter into a negotiation. If your not ready to walk away with a “no deal”, you have already lost that negotiation!

Reminds me of this #FAKEFRONTPAGE the Boston Globe printed in April of 2016...

https://assets.documentcloud.org/documents/2797782/Ideas-Trump-front-page.pdf

One year later, much of the drive by media republished 'parts' of the paper -- amazed by how accurate the 'parody' was.

- Curfews extended in multiple cities
- New libel law targets ‘absolute scum’ in press
- Dow declines to 9912
- White House orders [military] to kill relatives of ISIS militants.

A shameless shill for the Euro-Elites speaks. How this guy can honestly call himself an “Englishman” is unbelievable.

Wow, you can hard see the Marionette strings that control him!

(The EU doesn’t give up easily)
