I sure hope the EU hasn't given in to the DUP. But since May won't get anything through parliament, it's probably a moot point.

Corbyn wants Brexit to happen he’ll whip Labour into passing it.
I mean they can disobey the whip. He should have the self awareness that trying that could result in Labour collapsing like the LibDems did.
He’s been a Euroskeptic since the 70’s he sees the EU as a neoliberal capitalistic endeavor which stands against everything he stands for.
Over the past 2 years now he showed no opposition to Brexit which goes against the wishes of his party members and their constituents and against the ideals of being an opposition party.
I really don’t see him changing his tune now as he showed he is incapable of letting his own ideals take the backseat to the will of the party.

My expectation is that everyone is going to suddenly fall into line and she'll get it through.

#14This all seems to be entirely moot, given that there is a slim chance of this deal getting through parliament - assuming it’s anything like it’s expected to be. What a colossal waste of time.
NB I have no idea what is going to happen over the next while.

Do you expect May to resign if it doesn't pass? NB I have no idea what is going to happen over the next while.
You’re not alone, FWIW. I’m pretty sure literally nobody knows how this is going to play out.

Labour's position is to vote against the Chequer's agreement.
Corbyn wants socialism, he want to nationalize the industries he wants to get rid of the neoliberal keynesian economics which the EU and every other social democracy in Europe promotes and follows he doesn’t want to be in the EU he was against the U.K. joining the EU in the first place and he didn’t do anything to prevent it from leaving.

He already has caused more harm than good to the Labour Party over his stance on Brexit. He’s been a Euroskeptic since the 70’s he sees the EU as a neoliberal capitalistic endeavor which stands against everything he stands for.

A trait that has garnered him many followers.

Labour's position is to vote against the Chequer's agreement.
Labour’s position should be to oppose Brexit and to remain or rejoin, that is not however Corbyn’s position it never was and for the past 2 years he showed that he is not fit as a leader because he can’t bend his ideals to the will of his party. Corbyn wants socialism, he want to nationalize the industries he wants to get rid of the neoliberal keynesian economics which the EU and every other social democracy in Europ…
Why? It hasn't been agreed at conference.
There's a party for Remainers that want to ignore the referendum result they're called the Liberal Democrats or the SNP if you are up in Scotland.
