So Brexit is no further down the line after six big votes last night in the British Parliament .The politicians are still a majority against leaving Europe and the voters voted to Leave Europe. Last night the politicians voted to try not to have a Hard Brexit, meaning they dont want to leave with no deal on March 29th, not the outcome anyone wants. TO just leave with no handshake would be very bad for the U.K. Sadly the opposition Labor Party will just keep voting down the Prime Minsters modified deal so to force a general election as the deadline nears. The sticking point is the backstop, some legalize written into the deal to 'pretend' there is a solution to the Irish border, having a border that is not physical with uniformed custom officers but can still collect taxes between the U.K and the European Union.The text is deliberately ambiguous and there to allow a deal to happen. Problem is the Pro Brexit politicians believe the text is really there to lock the U.K into never fully leaving the European Union and their trade rules, meaning we can not trade freely with the rest of the world. The reality is the text if there as there is no real way to solves the Irish border problem and the text really about sorting the border another day, a day that will never come, the classic political fudge. There are more votes in two weeks time. The cliff edge is coming.The governments tactic now is to scare the people and politicians into thinking a NO deal Brexit will be very bad and so take the deal the PM is offering. If the deal is not done by early March panic will begin as people stockpile food and medical supplies, creating the shortages Remain are threatening, a self fullfiling prophecy.
