We're fucked.

May has essentially given away seniority over Gibraltar to get her deal through, even knowing full well that the people's majority don't support it. Now online begging people to back it, suffice to say there's not been much support.

Only hope Parliament vote it down and the court case find Banks guilty, as could render the whole thing void

Maybe. But I don't think so.

I still don't know the mechanism by which it will happen, but I increasingly feel brexit won't actually happen. The Gibraltar issue is yet another nail in the coffin of this absurd act of national humiliation and self-harm.

I think there's now a solid majority in the UK who understand that a "no deal" brexit would be genuinely catastrophic, and that the only deals acceptable to Europe are substantially worse for the UK than the position it enjoys right now within the EU. The deal on offer is not as bad as "no deal", true, but it's still pretty dreadful compared to the current situation.

How this realisation manifests as concrete action to stop brexit? No idea whatsoever. But you guys now have 4 months to work it out.
