Sounds like a Tory leadership contest

The word could be out of context ,I suspect, when read , and by whom , its noun description is a person who holds extreme political or religious views, especially one who advocates illegal, violent, [B]or other extreme action. [/B]

I think the highlighted section above ( extreme action. ) could be considered by some a correct term as the potential action , of crashing out with no deal on WTO rules, favoured by some of the ERG , as a better option than the May deal, could be considered as extreme action, it could in the short term hurt a lot of people further down the food chain , with prices , job loss ,and the temporary supply chain of goods to the UK , so one could consider that as extreme action.

I agree but considering at any given moment 30-40% of the public seem to want no deal why do we care what the 'will of the people' is? If it wasn't for the decision to force the government to give parliament we would be leaving the EU, getting May's withdrawal deal and an unknown future relationship because those extreme elements want no deal. This makes no sense.

No deal is a busted flush. Polls generally suggest a roughly equal split between LEAVE voters of those wanting a deal and those not wanting one. No deal in Westminster is a hard line act of wanting to not be bound by EU regulations on tax avoidance.

If there is a hard Brexit the politicians in Westminster can still be voted out, and new laws on tax avoidance can be written. It's more democratic than having one foot left inside the EU.
