That was underway before he came to power. What has he done besides parading about with his grandma/wife?

So... a Communist dictator, a Stasi propagandist, a guy with a Napoleon complex and a drunk walk into a room.....:D

A classy repartee would've been -
I don't know. Only a duck would know that.

But trust a blue collar to come up with a classy repartee. The last sentence was rhetorical, in case you didn't get it Paddy.
 
Parliament rejects all alternative Brexit options:
MPs reject all alternative Brexit options

So far, Parliament has rejected:
  1. May's Withdrawal Agreement (twice)
  2. Rejoining the EFTA (of which the UK was originally a founder)
  3. Being in a customs union
  4. Revoking Article 50
  5. Leaving without a deal
  6. Organizing a second referendum
Despite 400 MPs voting against leaving without a deal, this is still the most likely outcome, since it's the default result. As long as they keep rejecting anything and everything that comes their way, it's what is going to happen.

There's still the deadline of the 29th March, 23:00 GMT to get the withdrawal agreement voted (less than 30 hours remaining at the time of posting). Once this has predictably failed, asking the Parliament to do something becomes moot, instead it's up to the government to launch Operation Yellowhammer.

The deadline is the 12th April now unfortunately. So there are at least 2 more weeks of watching nothing happen.

The deadline for ratifying the withdrawal agreement stays on March 29. If they don't vote for it this time, the deal is dead for good and the two more weeks are just to prepare the UK for no-deal Brexit.

Also, the European Council meetings are usually held on Thursdays. Which means that a British decision after 29th March would have to be sent on Wednesday the 10th at the latest, on the 11th or 12th it'd be too late to be examined in the Council so it'd just be ignored.

Well they're going to try pass the withdrawal agreement without the part about the future relationship and the backstop in it. Can't see how the EU would accept that though, so hopefully it won't.
