...but if the government succeeds in getting a vote against what was its position last week before it caved in to rebels from the other side, then it won't be that simple any more. For a customs union... (19/67)
... because at this point the European Research Group can be split roughly seven ways. The new Better-Corbyn faction now wants to restart secret negotiations with the DUP half-way though and throw in Gibraltar. Malta meanwhile... (23/67)
...a sort of reverse re-entry effect if you will, which could greatly simplify the matter. But only if a full committee were sitting, which it currently isn't. So for now it boils down to only two people whose attitudes are oddly symetrical. The "Maybin Binomial" thus... (32/67)

...at which point the Dark Matter Spectroscope will be used to determine what exactly Jeremy Corbyn's position is, or to be more precise, what it *isn't*. Going forward - assuming no resonance cascade occurs - this will be useful for...

...allowing May to remain as Prime Minister but not as Conservative Leader, or as a sort of temporarily living embodiment of the unsynthesised manifolds of Brexit if you will. This would need vetting by both the European Court of Human Rights and CERN... [41/79]
...which means that after today's vote, three things have become clear, and seventeen things have become opaque. Let us examine them in reverse order of the Greek alphabet: [53/92]
...leading, depending on the size of victory, to a Politburo vote following the Kemeny–Young method on whether to negotiate for a Red Brexit, Amber Brexit, Orange Brexit or Turquoise Brexit. In case of a coalition with the DUP and Lord Buckethead on the other hand... [59/97]
And so now a parliamentary commission will investigate whether in fact a resonance cascade occured. Theresa May's choices are now multiple, leading all to the same place, which is where she/we is/are now. Whether or not she sets the pace...
"For all those reasons, it is better that I step aside and make way for someone who will deliver this Brexit. I give you the next Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, Mary Thease. " [63/105]
This, while not helping with the actual talks, will have at least helped to clear the air... [72/118]
...which is certainly a cunning move as the meerkat is known to be the totem animal of several key members of the European Research Group. Whether agitation in the Commons will now calm down, dears, depends... [82/119]
...and that frankly makes you wonder if it is after all such a bad way to go, especially when you remember what a good innings this country has had. In what court exactly the ball is now depends on the perspective of the ball... [115/119]

And so before we go back to Brexit for Season 3, a brief recap of the options on offer at this point.
And then, once the results of the European Elections are digested, both leaders can resume negotiating with each other as well as their internal opponents, and supporters. And themselves, and their daemons. [135/1000Xπ]
"It will be for my successor to seek a way forward that honours the result of the referendum. To succeed, he or she will have to find consensus in Parliament where I have not." [142/175]
...which may have the salutary effect of rebooting British politics with a serious, fiscally responsible and politically transparent adult debate about the options left on the table.. .[157/193]
"There is every chance that in 2050, when I fully intend to be around, though not necessarily in this job we will look back on this period, this extraordinary period, as the beginning of a new golden age for our United Kingdom." [162/207]
...and of course such a government of national unity would need to be negotiated quickly and efficiently behind the scenes because otherwise there is a real risk that things might go silly. [187/213]
