(dark music plays)
All of the parliamentary theatrics over
the past two years have led to this moment
Theresa May's announcement
As of this afternoon
to put No Deal and an
extension to article 52 a vote in the Commons
solidifies what is always, in the
background, been the main point.
Extension is the necessary element
and a crucial process by which we remain in the European Union
Yesterday's Corbyn's move
was perhaps very shrewd
and his timing certainly was crucial
The state of play
is clear to my eyes
his call for a second referendum is a red herring
he knows that ultimately that the referendum will be politically toxic
but it satisfies his critics
and puts the recent wave of Independent Group
converts in their place
for the time being
On the other hand
May gains soft support for the idea, just the idea,  of supporting her deal
but her deal is impossible
Therefore public opinion will be managed
away
from an extreme revolt against the Great Brexit Betrayal
that is an extension of article 50 in the first instance
with a hard remain as the worst
case scenario
How ruthless our leaders are in this time of crisis
Has it ever been clearer that our democracy has vanished
And we are being led to the
slaughter of representative government
of sovereignty
by this party deal
and
it's a cross-party deal
Part of me admires it
The sheer arrogance of it
yet the fact remains
All of the toing and froing we've seen
All of the market uncertainty
All of the political divisiveness
Has been orchestrated as a
spectacle by the "PLEBS"
the Politically, Liberal, Elitist, Bastards and Snobs
in Government,
Parliament,
the Civil Service
Business
Media, Lobbyists
and those
hangers-on
across the Unions, Universities and Think Tanks
who were terrified of you
the Electorate
for taking charge
For making the decisions
For voting against them
But the EU will also now have to deal
with its own political fallout
Everything from Greece to Italy
they will reap  what they sow
by pushing for more Europe
they've lessened the United
Europe cause
Even to those whose natural inclination it is to support
Brexit
maybe dead
but we may have ensured political disintegration
across an evil
would-be Empire
the "PLEBS" may have won
but history may show
the democracy dying
today in the United Kingdom
Unleashed something else in the European Union
