Attack by whom? For what reason?
Anyway, as a people we are already under attack by this appalling government!

Do you think this chaos makes the UK vulnerable to attack?

Mrs May and Corbyn are against a second referendum

A bit of a cheek for Raab to resign from the draft deal that he negotiated!

Why didn't he resign yesterday, instead of letting May come out to Downing Street to say the Cabinet had agreed the draft - it's not as though he didn't know what was in the document.

Wholly agree Grandad. They did just the same after the Chequers meeting. Who can have confidence in any of them?
TM says she has got the best deal she could and that the alternatives are no deal - calamitous for all but the wealthy - or no Brexit. Now there’s a thought....

I’m still pondering whether there will be a vote of confidence triggered by the Tory MPs and if so how many would vote against her.

How to wheedle out those who are disloyal to a party. It's certainly separated the wheat from the chaff. Traitors.

The leaving of EM is being seen by some as the real Brexit dividend. ?

I'm watching the Victoria Derbyshire programme, desperately trying to understand what's going on.

What a shower of sh*t this cabinet and Tory part is. They sit there facing Theresa May for five and a half hours, then come out jointly accepting the proposed deal, and then in true Tory tradition stab her in the back.

What a totally gutless crowd.

It certainly is chaos and has a certain grim inevitability about it. I cannot see any government being able to achieve a leave deal that is wholly acceptable - but certainly not this one.

Cameron should have had some realistic thoughts on a deal before he started all of this.

First Dominic Raab, the Brexit Secretary and now Esther McVey from Work and Pensions.
Can you see a way out of the chaos we're witnessing?TM to address the HoC at 10.30.
