^The Pantomime Villain fails to understand that she can end the deal with the DUP any time she likes and sign another or attempt to govern as a minority.
Having said that, the thought of Old Man Steptoe riding the rescue on Hercules doesn't really fill me with hope.
I know Corbyn is useless but surely he won't agree to what would essentially be keeping The Tory party together at the expense of what you can imagine would be considerable damage to his own party. Is May's offer genuine or is she just striking a conciliatory tone so that she can say that she tried to opt for national unity but Corbyn was the issue if there was a snap election?

His own party is also split. Ian Lavery the Chairman of the Labour Party voted against the Labour Whip on the indicative votes and Corbyn didn't sack him although junior ministers have been sacked or resigned for the same thing.
Edit: Now being reported that Lavery offered to resign but Corbyn refused to allow him to.
We know both the country and Parliament are split over Brexit and I sincerely hope that we can find a way forward that brings people back together. I am worried though that there is a certain group of Brexit supporters who frankly are a disgrace and who will use the cover of Brexit and the current turmoil as an excuse to break the law and put themselves and others lives at risk.
The attempts to block railway lines over the last few weeks is outrageous. I'm not suggesting any responsibility falls on the leading Brexiteers but it would help show real leadership if they were to publicly condemn such acts and if in general all parties dialled down the rhetoric being used.
Railway sabotage
One of the Tory whips has resigned in protest at May meeting with Corbyn
These twats need to realise we're long past the stage where anyone gives a fuck about resignations. Just get on with the job you were given.
I don't like to be a backseat moderator, but isn't it about time that the Brexit thread was merged with the old FIFA thread?
In terms of the lying, manipulation, law-breaking, vote brokering, incompetence and hypocrisy we seem to be covering a lot of old ground.
MPS back bill to delay Brexit by ONE Vote (Lords could debate Friday or Monday)
Juncker rejects May's plea for delay (May's deal must be secured by 12 April or sign up to longer delay)
Nick Boles describes May's Cabinet as the "worst in history" (His Common Market motion 2.0 failed and resigned from Government), said "NONE of her Cabinet should stand in leadership election or should be PM after Brexit"
A typical day in Brexit land
What's next???
