Jacob Rees-Mogg would NEVER use a bidet. He's way above that sort of oikish pleb move. Why lower YOURSELF onto a bidet when nanny can polish your anus with a spit-moistened hankie.

lavabit mea sis deorsum as he might probably say...

Never spit - that's for the lower orders; Jacob's nanny uses towelettes, moistened with the salty tears of homeless people. Jacob's anus is always spotlessly clean.

Homeless tears are really rather moreish. Use sparingly if the shaved truffle's aroma is beginning to wane or if the the foie gras has been carelessly made with inferior brandy (for example using a £1000 cognac like some type of beastly savage, rather than a Remy Martin. ).

I'll be glad when Jacob finally silences the insidious remainer elite.

Yeah nice little drift off the debate, but don't get to cosy mate as hostilities WILL be resumed

Agreed mate. wrong word

Best fun on the Sin Bin for a few years and I haven't even charged for it.

I like how the Brexit Secretary is trying to frame the EU’s restatement of a consistent position as re-running old arguments.

Desperation, denial, or does he just not get it?

Can you imagine if the EU tried to renegotiate this deal on one narrow point, without offering any concessions in return? There’d be absolute outrage. But this big unwieldy behemoth is able get itself aligned behind one position, while we exploit our supposed agility by running repeatedly into well signposted traps of our own design. And still we’re blaming them.

The vote next week will be pivotal in what happens next.
Assuming that May's deal is voted down and this still looks most likely, then we are looking at either no deal or a delay, with delay looking most likely.
Any cracks in either of the main parties could properly fracture and it's just possible that Corbyn could get his chance in a GE.
Expect some fur to fly.

It is so embarrassing we are an absolute laughing stock, why would the EU give way let me think now,
They won't negotiate because
They don't want us to leave as we are one of the highest contributors.
Might give other EU countries the same idea
Our negotiating position is weak as they know we have absolutely no stomach for a no deal.
If it goes to a second referendum remain might just win.

They will negotiate because
erm let me think

Ironically, the only way that the EU will move is, if they believe that it's going to be no deal.
We should had said that we are leaving on 29th March with no deal unless we got "what we wanted".

This would have put a whole different focus on the negotiations, especially as there would be no divorce payment with no deal.

Think you could be wrong about the payment.

We are obliged to a payment regardless of the deal struck. Unless we wish to become pariahs, a bit like North Korea as John Major pointed out, non payment isn't an option.

You might be right, this is the 39 billion the amount we agreed with the EU as our commitments that we signed up for up until 2020. We could refuse to pay it if we leave without a deal as we shouldn't then be tied into the European courts, however, they (the EU) could take us to the international court which they probably would.

On top of that there might be other payments in the divorce bill for example pensions.

My bad.
I foolishly believed Domonic Raab, who said that we wouldn't pay unless there was a deal.
Politicians eh
