Indeed. His partial statement at that time was:
Stephen Barclay
I have two minutes left, and I have given way a couple of times already.
It was Tony Blair who said that the way to stop Brexit was first to vote against the Prime Minister’s deal, then to vote against no deal, then to seek a long extension. In his votes on Tuesday, Wednesday and tonight, that is the precise script followed by the Leader of the Opposition. Perhaps he could share with us whether it was Tony, Peter or Alastair who wrote it for him. How proud those envoys of the elite must be with his late conversion to the cause. His approach has become more Davos than Don Valley.
Some Members will remember the Banksy painting that went through the shredder. Indeed, my hon. Friend the Member for Ribble Valley (Mr Evans) had it on his Christmas card. The reality of the Leader of the Opposition’s approach this week is that he is shredding the votes of 17.4 million people by turning his back on the referendum, going back on his word in his own manifesto and failing to listen even to his own Front Benchers. The hon. Member for Ashton-under-Lyne (Angela Rayner) said just last night:
“I think that it would be disastrous for us as Members of Parliament to go back to the people”.
That is the very issue that others in his party are campaigning for.
This is a time for responsibility, yet we have a motion from the Leader of the Opposition that ducks the choice, ducks the time, ducks the clarity and ducks any sense of national responsibility. It is time for this House to act in the national interest. It is time to put forward an extension that is realistic. I commend the Government motion to the House.

I have emphasised an interesting point.
What do you think of Mr Blair's idea?

May dropped the ball big style.
When presenting her option. She should have said either For this or Against = No deal....
She would have romped home.
Even business is now leaning towards no deal just to stop the uncertainty a delay will bring. ____________________ Just because my bike was A DIVVY, does not mean i am...... |

I think a chunk of the problem is, if we leave the EU, then our politicians will have to learn how to run a country, which they know they're not capable of doing, so they'd rather let the EU do it instead - they can still draw their salary and privileges then, whilst giving the impression of being in charge.

So do I, but it's not "1 country against 27" that's the problem. The problem is MPs not taking the one way that would flippin' well get us out of the EU, which has been negotiated!
Would I rather stay in the EU for a couple of years "to sort things out then leave properly", or would I rather take the WA, exit the EU, and sort things out if need be from the outside?
Well, you know my choice. I want to leave the EU, not give Blair, Soros, all the antidemocratic richboi remainers, plus Labour and the EU the chance of 2 more years to destroy Brexit. |

The problem is UK has Parliament that is paralysed by a lie.
For the record Swiss done 400 referenda not 1, and they say EU2016 ref. was misleading lie hence invalid.
Putting lies on ballot paper is literally NOT democracy.
Say a vote for removing taxes: No means taxation system stays - real option. Yes is new fantasy world without taxes.

That's such a lazy piece of journalism, there's more holes in those arguments than a big slice of Emmental, you know, Swiss cheese.
