We are being failed on all sides.. he needs to go and take T. May with him.
Dominic Grieve is the MP of the day. He nailed it earlier in the HOC.
And tonight May says.. nothing.

The guest speaker on CNN a little bit ago said May's little speech was misdirected, in that it didn't address anyone who can do anything (i.e. EU countries or MPs) and instead came across as saying to the British public "It's not my fault, it's those naughty kids in parliament!"

May told everyone that it wasn't her fault, it's the fault of all those dithering MPs -- they're to blame...
... and she needs the support of those dithering MPs that she just crapped on to pass her bad deal (at the third attempt).
Well done, that PM. Or is she sticking relentlessly to her corner-painting strategy?
