4.1 seems a decent price for May to be gone by June 2019?

She should catch everyone off guard and call a general election tomorrow.

Labour consituencies in the north and midlands that voted leave will send their sitting MP's to the dole office. And rightly so.

Parliament should be disbanded and MP's held on charges of high treason against the people and duely hung, drawn and quartered in public.

Cromwell must turning in his grave at all this....

Last night it become clear that Thurs vote on 'wanting an extension' is the only one that's going to be passed this week

Just heard Barnier reinforce the negotiated May deal is the ONLY one on the table so will be a kick in the teeth for parliament if the EU do stick to that and refuse the extension, it then becomes a clear 3-way option all of which should ensure this is done by 29th March
Leave with May's deal
Leave with No deal
Remain by Revoking article 50 altogether

Yeah but Tusk has tweeted that he would be open to a long extension … translation: "the EU would be open to giving you more time to have Ref2 or whatever you need to overturn Brexit, we usually find that to keep having referendums until you get the 'right' result usually works … but if you don't want the hassle of that you can just invoke previous precedents and ignore the result and we will support you".

Interesting comments by May at PMQ's that could be interpreted as if there's any delay longer than 30th June she'll step down

This market tends to keep pulse with this line. (Have posted once before) It's now flip flopped back to current position.

Only if the deal passes?

Odds that the 3rd meaningful vote will pass (2.2 i.e. not favourite), yet delay is 1.17

Lay 1.17 is very tempting :)

No they haven't. That was typical gibberish from Donald Tusk by blackmailing the UK to accept TM's deal

Reports coming from France that Macron will oppose the extension - this makes the market 'No Deal Brexit' look interesting. You can still lay 'No' at 1.20 - that's looking tempting right now

It was actually the News Channels 'Breaking news' ticker tape I saw it on ahead of his speech but it was clearly wrong

But your right it does make the 'no deal' market tempting

The SNP are to table a motion to revoke article 50.

I wonder how many MP's will now support that motion ?
