kevin is a coward đ
okay, sure, youâre entitled to your opinion. if thatâs how you want to see it, thereâs no one stopping you. it just seems to me that our reading, interpretation, and understanding of the story is fundamentally different. i cannot even fathom where this godawful take is coming from. if you look at kevin's life in context itâs a gross simplification of the dynamics at play. not to say that he didnât make some questionable or selfish choices and hurt people along the way but idk how you could look at a deeply traumatised boy and call his (maladaptive) behaviour/trauma responses cowardice. just because you don't like kevin or respect his decision doesnât mean heâs a coward.Â
#once again it feels like if the narrative doesnât actively encourage or force empathy itâs kinda lost for most non-pov characters.#already said more than i planned to. oh well.#2024 is NOT the year iâll get dragged back into aftg discourse again. not even for kevin day the loml.#i have been in various trenches before and i canât go back there. those times are over; they have to be or iâll lose my mind.#i'd rather use my time for anything else other than arguing with people. like rereading the books fjdjdkj#mish reads aftg#anon#answer#putting aside our disagreement on this matter i hope you have great weekend!!

a prompt: holden's thinking of running a marathon or something, and it gets bill thinking about just how young holden is and some insecurities appear. what's their future like? wouldn't holden be better off with someone who could actually match his rhythm? sorry im just a sucker for some age gap h/c!
Hey donât apologize! I live to serve and create the content this fandom wants and deserves - it also helps that this turned out really cute and sweet and I like it very very much. Thanks for the prompt! đ
Golden pink sunset stretches across the sky, making the red rubber of the track glow a burnt orange, the grass a glistening, knife-edged green. The summer heat has slacked off into a comfortable warmth thatâs accompanied by the slight breeze that cools that faint sweat on Billâs brow.Â
He glances down at the stopwatch as Holden emerges from the glowing haze of sunlight, running at a steady clip around the final curve of the track before he reaches the starting point again. Dressed in track shorts and a gray Academy sweatshirt, heâs sweating harder in the July heat than Billâs stationary position could ever hope to achieve.Â
Bill squints against the sunlight, once again baffled by how much Holden enjoys this activity. Wendy had first suggested some type of exercise to him to help deal with his anxiety, and Holden had taken to the task like a fish to water. For the first few months, he would come out where to the Academy track to run for his own enjoyment, but now that he considers himself an accomplished runner, heâs taken to training for a marathon at the end of the month. The preparation is taking up a lot of time, much more than Bill had expected; and his only recourse to steal as much private time with Holden as possible is to park his ass here beside the track with the stopwatch.Â
As Holden drops down out of his run into a jog, and finally to a staggered halt, Bill jabs the timer on the stopwatch.Â
âHow long as was that?â Holden asks, his voice hoarse and fractured.Â
âSeven minutes, twenty-five seconds.â
âShit.â Holden whispers, leaning forward to clutch his knees.Â
âYouâre unsatisfied with running a mile in seven minutes?â Bill asks, incredulously.Â
âAnd twenty-five seconds.âÂ
âI thought a marathon was about endurance not speed.âÂ
âIt is. Itâs a personal goal.â
Bill leans over to grab the water bottle from the grass, and tosses it to Holden.Â
Catching it against his chest, Holden straightens and takes a stumbled step backwards as he lifts the bottle to his mouth.Â
Bill watches him quietly, half-appreciating the sweat drenched ringlets plastered to his forehead and the way his throat glistens in the fading sunlight.Â
âWell, I know one thing for sure. Youâd leave me in the dust.â Bill says.
Holden drags the bottle away from his mouth, leaving his lips slickly pink. He swipes a hand across his dribbling chin, and saunters closer to where Bill is seated on the folding chair in the grass.Â
âYou could join me, you know.â He says.Â
âRunning?â
âYeah. Anyone can do it.â
âWhat? So I can get out there and humiliate myself? It wouldnât be pretty.â
âWell, no one starts out an expert.âÂ
âHolden, we practically live together.â Bill says, gesturing to himself. âYou are fully aware of what I can and cannot do.â
Holden rolls his eyes. âOh, Christ. Is this about the other night when I wanted round two and you werenât up for it?â
Bill scowls, âOkay, you didnât have to drag that into it.â
âYou were about to.âÂ
âNo, I wasnât.â
âFine.â Holden says, capping the water bottle, and tossing it in the grass. âIâm going to do one more lap around the track to cool off and then we can go.â
âYou want me to time that, too?â
Holden casts him a snide glance before spinning around and taking off toward the track again at a steady jog.Â
Bill frowns watching him sprint into the melted glow of the sunset, his body shimmering like some moving work of art beneath the colors of the sky. Itâs easy to forget that heâs going to be thirty-two in a few months, technically middle-aged, when heâs so virile and energetic. Itâs like he has a bottomless well of initiative and drive, and his body ⌠Well, Bill has been witness to all of the things his beautiful, toned, young body can do and endure. Running a seven minute mile is just the tip of the iceberg.Â
Bill tries to set aside his insecurities as Holden circles the far end of the track and starts back towards the finishing line. He isnât self-absorbed. He cares about his appearance insofar as it pertains to personal hygiene and professionalism. His current job doesnât require extreme physical feats like running a seven minute mile or even running at all so why should it matter? Holden has his own personal goals and hobbies that he doesnât necessarily have to share. It shouldnât matter, but he knows why it does.Â
When Holden comes off the track again, Bill hands him the towel to wipe the sweat from his brow.Â
âReady to go home?â
âYeah.âÂ
Bill gathers their things, and leads them across the yard, through the student parking, and all the way back to their lot in front of the BSU building. The walk is long and silent, some disagreement rippling underneath that he doesnât feel like addressing. Once they reach the car, Bill rolls down the windows, turns on the stereo, and lights a cigarette. Holden leans toward the breeze, the sweet tang of perspiration blustering in the air alongside the summer breeze. Bill figures theyâll both just let it go, but ten minutes into the drive, Holden turns back to Bill.Â
âIs something the matter with you?âÂ
âWhat? No.â
Holdenâs hands fidget in his lap. âI can tell when youâre pissed. Why donât you just say it?â
âHolden, Iâm beat. Itâs almost eight and weâre just now going home after working for ten hours and-â
âOh, is that why? Because Iâm forcing you to stay out late?â
âYouâre not forcing me.â
âI told you that you didnât have to come. I can work a stopwatch on my own.â
âYeah? Then what do you need me for?â
The hasty retort slashes coldly through the humid air, leaving them both simmering in choked silence for a long moment. Bill flicks cigarette ashes out the window, annoyed with himself. Thereâs no basis for this argument, but theyâre having it anyway.Â
âI donât know what your fucking problem is.â Holden mutters, âAre you just mad that I have an interest that doesnât involve you?â
âNo, of course not. Youâre allowed to have your own hobbies-â
âOh, youâre allowing me to have this hobby. How generous of you.â
âThat is not what I meant, and you know it.â
They fall into silence again, but Bill can sense the electric hum of anger and the threat of hurt feelings arising.Â
Just fucking apologize. He tells himself, trying to tamp down the bubbling insecurities that seem to multiply with every exchange. But his jaw stays stubbornly clamped shut.Â
The next ten minutes pass in stifled silence until they reach Billâs house. Holdenâs car is parked in the driveway where he had left it over the weekend when a sleepover turned into a five-night affair. Bill figures that little foray is about to end right here.Â
He throws the car into park, but lets the engine idle as they sit quietly, stewing.Â
âOkay.â Holden says, finally. âIâm sorry I brought up the other night - the round two thing. That was uncalled for.â
âIt isnât that.â
âReally?â Holden asks, his gaze swinging across the car to strike Bill with withering severity.Â
Bill takes a slow drag of his cigarette and focuses on the yard darkening in the impending dusk.Â
âBill, I have never had an issue with your age and my age, and-â
âPlease, just stop.â Bill says, holding up a hand. The humiliation is already curling up his chest in fiery fingers, clutching at the back of his throat with debilitating force. The fact that he canât suppress it is just as bad as the initial flinch of insecurity.Â
âFine. You donât want to talk to me?â Holden says, impatiently. He unlatches the door and shoves it open with his shoulder. âI think Iâm just gonna go home, and you can call me when you get your head out of your ass.â
Bill flinches as the door slams shut behind him, jarring the entire vehicle. He watches with a sickening feeling dropping to the pit of his stomach as Holden storms around the hood of the car towards his own vehicle.Â
Get out and stop him, you stupid fucking idiot.Â
Growling a sound of frustration, Bill rips off his seatbelt, and climbs out of the car just as Holden reaches the hood of his Nova.Â
âWait.âÂ
Holdenâs determined pace cuts to a halt. They stare at one another in the falling dusk, a quiet standoff that Bill knows Holden wonât be breaking; heâs waiting for Bill to speak and be honest.Â
Drawing in a deep breath, Bill puts his head down, and closes the space between them in a few strides. Holden turns slowly to face him, not resisting as Bill catches him by the hand.Â
âIâm sorry.â Bill says, quietly.Â
Holden nods. Still waiting.Â
âCome on.â Bill says, scoffing against the clutch of emotion in the back of his throat. âDonât tell me you never think about it.â
âI mean, yes. Objectively, Iâve thought about it because itâs a basic, indisputable fact.â Holden says, âI said I donât have an issue with it.â
âLook, these past few months have been great.â Bill says, âBut I think it would be a little selfish of me to not encourage you to think about your future. What do the next ten years look like? Donât you want someone who can keep up with you? And are you going to be happy with this decision when our age difference really does start catching up with us?â
Holdenâs brow furrows. âThatâs a little pessimistic, donât you think?â
âIâm just trying to be honest.â
Holden glances away for a moment, his eyes squinting against the fading light. Bill can tell that heâs seriously considering the conversation, and that acknowledgement alone eases some of the tightness in his chest.Â
âYou want honesty?â Holden says, his voice softening as he shifts his gaze gently back to Billâs.Â
âYeah. Always.â
âFine. Then this is the truth - I donât care about our age difference, or round two. Some days I donât even care about round one. Thatâs not what this is about, and itâs a little reductive to say that it is.â
Bill lets out a sigh and glances away, but Holden presses closer, cradling Billâs chin in his hand to guide his eyes back up.Â
âI know what the next ten years look like.â Holden murmurs, âMaybe not exactly, but I do know one thing - youâre here, with me. Whether you are running down a track with me or Iâm pushing you a fucking wheelchair.â
Bill chokes on an unbidden laugh as Holdenâs mouth stretches into a fond smile. He wraps both arms around Holdenâs waist, suddenly not caring whether someone driving down the street could see the intimate embrace. He just wants to make this moment last - the moment when Holden melted the last of his fears and insecurities.
âOkay?â Holden whispers, clutching his cheek tighter. âI donât want someone else. I want you.â
Bill nods, trying to find a reply in the tangled knot of relief and joy in the back of his throat.Â
Holden kisses him quickly on the mouth, a swift, reassuring gesture that the whole street might have seen, before he wraps his arms around Billâs neck.Â
Bill buries his face in Holdenâs neck, impressing the warmth of his body and his embrace down into his quivering soul. When he draws in a deep breath, he can smell summertime and sweat on his skin.Â
Clearing his throat, Bill draws back. âDo you, uh ⌠do you want to get a shower first, before you leave?â
Holden chuckles softly. âYeah, that sounds great.â
âOkay, letâs go in. Itâs really warm out here.â Bill says, wiping sweat from his own temple.Â
Holden clutches his hand as they climb the steps to the front porch. As they reach the door, he whispers, âBill?â
âYeah?â
âI donât really want to leave.âÂ
Bill purses back a smile. âNo?â
âNo. Can I spend the night again⌠and possibly use your washer and dryer for my work clothes?â
âOf course.âÂ
They share a quiet smile before Bill unlocks the door and lets them inside. Holdenâs fingers curl tighter around his hand, drawing Bill down the hallway towards the bathroom without another word. They move quietly, deftly through the house, muted anticipation rising. The sun has already set, golden light touching the door for the last time tonight.Â

Haikyuu series part 2
The week of the camp was here you were packing in your room trying to make sure you wouldnât forget anything. Your digging through your closet when a knock on your door makes you jump. âCome inâ You say annoyed. âHey um got any plans for this weekend?â Itâs your brother. âActually yes... I am going to volleyball camp with the team.â You say struggling to grab the jeans on the top shelf.. âHere allow meâ He says as he grabs them with ease. âThanksâ You say great full. âWell I was hoping to get some practice in but itâs fine Iâll just spend time with the team after school.â He says. Heâs about to leave your room but you stop him when you say âI appreciate your helpâ he smiles and leaves you alone.
You make your way to the school the next morning the sun wasnât even up yet but you had to be there to help load the bus. âPass the class and your savior will take you to Tokyoâ says Tanaka to Hinata nd Kageyama. âalright everyone in the carâ says coach. Your the last one in the bus and all the boys seem to have taken a seat for themselves. âYou can sit here if you wantâ says Asahi as he moves his bag. You smile at him and sit down. âHey thanksâ you say he looks at you and smiles. âOh about the other day can we just forget about it?â You whisper. He smiles at you. âItâs okay, whoever it is I think I can help yaâ he says excited whispering back. âNo! No no itâs okayâ you say shaking your head. âI insist, I bet itâs Suga and if it is we better make it happen beforeâ he says but you stop him. âItâs notâ you say and he looks at you confused. âDiachi?â He Asks. You shake your head in disagreement. âOh this is going to be tough.â He says. âIs it a first year?â He Asks kind of suspicious. âNope and I wonât tell youâ you say trying to make him stop. âOkay then, Iâll figure it outâ he says. âI doubt itâ You say making him laugh. The rest of the ride you both were just catching up.
âAlright everyoneâs got everything?â Asked Coach Ukai as he helped you Yachi and Kiyoko with the rest of the equipment. The guys were all greeted by the boys from Nekoma. They take you to the room where you will be staying at. âAlright first games in a bit and Iâm excitedâ you say putting your bag down. âItâs going to be so much funâ adds Yachi full of excitement. âAlright you two letâs go join the boysâ says Kiyoko with a wide smile. You all walk towards the gyms once you arrive you begin to help the other team managers set up âHey I donât think Iâve seen you?â You turn around and see a guy with spiky frosted tips. âYeah I donât think you haveâ You say ignoring his comment. âHey whatâs your name?â Asks another guy heâs tall with wild hair that resembles a rooster. âHow about you tell me your name first?â You ask him. âIâm Kurro the captain of Nekoma this is Bokutoâ he begins âthe ace of Fukerodaniâ heâs interrupted by the guy, who seems pretty proud of himself. âAh wow you donât sayâ you answer him sarcastically. âYeah so your turnâ he asks you. âIâm y/nâ he looks at you with awe. âNo way, I love that nameâ he says trying to flirt. Kurro just rolls his eyes. âIgnore this idiotâ he says shoving him. âHey!â You hear Nishinoya and Tanaka from the other end of the court. âMine!â Yells Nishinoya. Bokuto looks at Nishinoya and then at you. You smile at him and shrug. âGotta go, nice to meet the ace of Fukerodaniâ you say teasing him before joining Tanaka and Nishinoya. You make your way over and notice Nishinoya looking at Bokuto with a scowl. Once you get to him he starts laughing hard. âIdiot way to scare him offâ you say laughing just as hard. âHe has no chanceâ he says looking at Tanaka in between laughs. âOkay okay stop it go warm up you twoâ You say shoving them both towards the court. âSo what about Tanaka?â You turn around and see Asahi. âNo and stop guessingâ you say rolling your eyes. This was bad soon he would run out of guesses.
After a tough Morning filled with losses the boys decided to take a break. It was strange none of their sets were connecting. âWhatâs up with?â You question Yachi and she shakes her head. âHinata and Kageyama need to get here fastâ she says worried. âDonât worry they are on their wayâ adds Kiyoko trying to lighten the mood you make your way towards the boys. âOkay come on gentlemen! We are a team even without Hinata and Kageyama we still have lots of other weapons in our arsenalâ you say trying to motivate them. âYou are right thanks for the motivation, we have to keep pushingâ says Daiche smiling positively. âHow about you give the person who scores the most points a kiss?â Says Tanaka wiggling his eye brows. âHow about no?â You say sarcastically. âWell that would be a great motivatorâ adds Suga teasing you. âIâm game does that extend to our team too?â You turn around and see Kurro, joining in. âNo no ones getting kissed today, sorry to disappoint boys but itâs time to get backâ you say pointing at the gym. âAlright way to be a buzz kill y/nâ adds Nishinoya laughing. âIt really doesnât matterâ you say rolling your eyes âyouâre here to practice not to make outâ you add ânow letâs get back.â They all get off the floor and walk into the gym. Yachi joins you she looks at you confused. âDid they just?â She starts to say but you shake your head. âItâs just a joke, they are always like that with me. I donât do kisses or anything like that they just like to push my buttonsâ you say laughing. âOh okay I get itâ she laughs with you. A couple hours later Hinata and Kageyama arrived. âWow they are....something else hu?â You ask coach Ukai. He nods in agreement. âHis eyes are closedâ you say in awe pointing at Hinata. âKageyama!â You cheer realizing how talented of a setter he really is. Kageyama looks at you and you smile wide you notice his cheeks turn pink. You give him two thumbs up.
After the game you walk up to Kageyama heâs sitting on the floor drinking water. âYou are...something elseâ you say to him he looks at you as if trying to read your face âI think you and I are going to be great friendsâ you add sitting down beside him. âWow your highness, friend zoned alreadyâ says Tsukishima teasing him. âShut upâ says Kageyama he seemed more pissed off than mad. âHey your the king of the court?â You ask him putting all the dots together. âDonât call him that he hates itâ adds Hinata warning you, you look at Kageyama and notice he is fuming. âHey can I talk to you outside for a minute?â You whisper to him. At first he is taken back by your request, then simply nods and follows you outside. âSo what you want to talk about?â He asks as you sit taking advantage of the shade cast by a huge tree. You pat the grass beside you, he looks at you and raises an eyebrow but sits down anyways. â I know you, Oikawaâs greatest rival, aside from my brother that isâ You say he looks at you confused but intrigued. âYeah so?â He Asks. âSo.... I want you to beat himâ you say looking at him seriously. âYeah okay, is that all?â He asked he seemed kind of irritated by the conversation. âHe and I used to date actually.... my first year, but then my dad remarried and I got a new brother...he said I was no longer of use to him because I would betray him.â You add. You are both silent for a while when he asks you âDid you love him?â You turn to look at Kageyama he seemed to genuinely care. âI used to think soâ you say âI quickly realized I never did I was in love with the idea of him, he left when I needed him the most and all for thisâ You say in disgust as you point to the gym. âSo he betrayed you?â He says more than asks you simply nod in agreement. âDo you hate this?â He asks you. âNo I love this, I hate that Iâm just tossed aside by people I care about because they seem to care about the sport moreâ you say clarifying the situation âHey the other day you and Asahi had a conversation...â he starts but you cut him off. âYeah I guess I seem to never learn hu? To be attracted to volleyball players stillâ you say laughing at the situation. âThis is differentâ you add he laughs along with you. âHow so?â He Asks as he pulls at the grass. âHeâs nothing like Oikawaâ you say as you get up. You extend you hand out to help him up, he takes it. âSo, heâs nothing like Oikawa? I bet you like Asahiâ he says as you pull him up. You stop putting your hand on his chest stopping him from walking. He looks at you and raises his eyebrow. âYou need to promise me... you will not tell himâ you say threatening him. âI promise, but I need something from you in exchangeâ he says taking your hand off him. âI wonât kiss youâ you say teasing him. âNo not that Teach meâ he adds. âIm not sure I could teach you anythingâyou say confused. âThe serve... Ushijimaâs serveâ He clarifies. You look at him and extend you hand out. âDealâ he takes your hand and you both shake on it. âLetâs get back in there before they become suspiciousâ he says teasing. You follow him back into the gym. The boys on your team all look at you both with confused expressions. âWhat?âYou ask them. They all smile to themselves. You shake you head âunbelievableâ you say.
It was the end of the day and you where about to turn yourself in for the night you step outside when you hear Kageyama calling out for you. âHey y/n! how about we work on that promise?â He says you nod and get back in the gym. âOh what promise?â Asks Nishinoya suspicious. âItâs nothing, Iâve got thisâ you tell him as you put your shoes back on. âOkay well we are all going to dinner so we will see you later?â Asks Tanaka you give them a thumbs up. âThat was strange right?â You hear Hinata whisper behind your back. You turn to him and give him a glare he pretends to not have said anything. âGoâ you tell them pointing to the doors. They all run out scared. âAlrighty we are all alone letâs do thisâ you say as you grab a ball. You work with him all through mid night. You were having so much fun you lost track of time. âHey I think we should end it for tonight?â You say he looks at you and sighs. âCome on help me, you monster then time for bed you need sleep just as much as practiceâ you tell him as you gather up the balls into the rack. He laughs and begins to help you. âHey so why donât you tell Asahi?â He Asks you. You laugh at his question. âHow?â You ask him. âJust tell him, I mean heâd be crazy not to like you backâ he adds . You look at him surprised. âYou think so?â You ask âbut how do I tell him? heâs my senior, I doubt heâd want to date someone youngerâ You add âSo was Oikawaâ he adds with a smug look on his face. âPlus if it makes you feel any better heâs probably more scared of you than you are at being rejectedâ he adds laughing. âOh this is such a drag but your right I should tell him.â You say more to yourself than to Kageyama.

Theresa May hints at one last go for her Brexit deal
Britain was last night facing the chaos of a general election to break the Brexit deadlock as Theresa May hinted she would have a fourth attempt at passing her deal.Â
Minutes after her deal was rejected, the Prime Minister signalled a national poll could now be on its way.
âI fear we are reaching the limits of this process in this House,â Theresa May told MPs. She also hinted that she may have yet another attempt at pushing her withdrawal deal through the Commons next week.
But her fourth attempt can only come after rebel MPs hold a second round of indicative votes on alternatives to her deal on Monday.Â
It is thought speaker John Bercow will only hold votes on the options that were closest to passing, including staying in the customs union or holding a second referendum.
The backbenchers, led by Sir Oliver Letwin, are planning to put through legislation forcing ministers to act if they find a majority.
That could precipitate a general election as Mrs May has warned she would not accept a soft Brexit that contradicts the partyâs manifesto commitments on leaving single market and customs union.
The news comes after the EU warned a âno-dealâ scenario is âlikelyâ, following todayâs loss by the PM.Â
Minutes after her deal was rejected, the Prime Minister signalled a national poll could now be on its way
âI fear we are reaching the limits of this process in this House,â Theresa May told MPs today
Tens of thousands of âbetrayedâ Brexiteers descended on London as they celebrated Theresa Mayâs latest EU defeat
Huge crowds marched from south London along the River Thames to Whitehall today. One woman is seen wearing a â52 per cent and proud memberâÂ
Crowds cheer as ex-Ukip leader Nigel Farage tells crowds: âFrankly, I believe that whatâs happened over there, has not just turned this day that shouldâve been one of great celebration into a day that history will mark as a day of great betrayal, I believe that whatâs happened over the course of two years is actually one of the saddest and worst chapters in the history of our nation.â
Aerial images of Londonâs Parliament Square show the scale of the protest, which came a week after the Put It To The People march when remainers demanded another vote on BrexitÂ

Furious Theresa May blasts John Bercow for wrecking her Brexit withdrawal agreement by blocking all amendments before MPs rejected it for a third timeÂ
John Bercow delivered another blow to the Tories by blocking an amendment from Labour MPs that could have swing behind the deal. Mrs May was defeated
Furious Theresa May had a pop at John Bercow for wrecking her Brexit withdrawal agreement by blocking all amendments before MPs rejected it for a third time
Theresa May blasted John Bercow for intervening to wreck her Brexit plans again as he blocked all amendments to her deal today.
One of the proposals the Speaker barred was tabled by Labour backbencher Gareth Snell and sought to guarantee Parliament a say on the trade talks phase of the negotiations.
Attorney General Geoffrey Cox said the Government would have accepted the amendment if it had come to a vote â meaning it could have brought some Labour MPs on board and helped Mrs May win today.
Before the vote on her Brexit deal this afternoon, Theresa May said it was unfortunate that the Speaker had not selected the Labour amendment because the government would have accepted it.
She said: âMr Speaker, if you had selected the amendment in the name of the honourable member for Stoke on Trent Central and others, the Government would have accepted it, and if this motion carries today we will bring forward a withdrawal agreement bill that will include commitments to implement that amendment and will discuss the specific drafting of that with those who supported the amendment.â
The Speaker has already come under fire for his alleged Remain sympathies, and was accused of sabotaging a third vote on Mayâs deal before the EU summit last week by saying she had to change the deal before it could be brought back to the commons.
In the hope of salvaging her concessions, Mrs May promised MPs she would make sure laws implementing the deal still reflect the plan in the event she pulls off an unlikely victory.
Mrs May yesterday confirmed publicly that she will step down within weeks if Parliament approves her deal. She made the offer at a private meeting of Tory MPs, then told the Commons: âI have said I am prepared to leave this job earlier than I intended to secure the right outcome for this country.âÂ
Downing Street refused three times to deny the Prime Minister was now considering going to the country. If a national vote is held it would be the third general election in just four years.Â
But elections expert Sir John Curtice, who is president of the British Polling Council, yesterday warned that even an early election may not resolve the Brexit deadlock â predicting it would lead to another hung parliament.
He projected that neither of the main parties would get the 320 seats needed to have a working majority, with the Tories forecast to have 307 MPs, down seven, and Labour expected to gain 11 MPs to have 256.
Transport Secretary Chris Grayling said the Prime Minister and Cabinet members would hold discussions over the weekend on how to go forward, but warned that an election would be a last resort because of the chaos it would bring.
He told Sky News: âI think the last thing this country needs right now is a general election, we have got to sort out the Brexit process. We cannot throw everything up in the air. I know Jeremy Corbyn might like it, it is why he has voted against his own policy today, but I do not see how this country benefits from the chaos of a six or seven week general election campaign.â
Mr Grayling, who ran Mrs Mayâs 2016 leadership campaign, said he did not believe she should step down yet.
âTheresa May has already said she is going to go, but in the middle of this situation I do not think it would help to have an immediate Conservative leadership contest,â he added. Under the Fixed-term Parliaments Act, the Prime Minister could call an early election, giving just six weeksâ notice, if backed by two-thirds of MPs.
It could also happen if a motion of no confidence in the Government is passed by a majority of MPs and within 14 days an alternative government is not formed.
Cabinet ministers and Tory MPs are likely to demand that Mrs May is replaced by a new party leader before an election takes place.
The timetable and rules for a leadership contest would be decided by the 1922 executive committee and then approved by the Conservative partyâs board.
It has previously been suggested the entire process could take 12 weeks, but it is expected the process would be speeded up if a general election was on the cards.Â
There are likely to be disagreements over what the party would have as its manifesto policy on Brexit, with many backbenchers likely to stand with their own individual pledges on the way forward.
If a general election took place, it could see voters facing three ballots in quick succession as it would require a delay to Brexit, meaning the country would be required to hold European Parliament elections on May 23. Local elections are scheduled to take place across much of the country on May 2.
Labour leader Mr Corbyn yesterday demanded that Mrs May step aside so a general election can be held. Following the Government defeat, he told the Commons: âThis is now the third time the Prime Ministerâs deal has been rejected. When it was defeated the first time, the Prime Minister said it was clear this House does not support the deal.
âDoes she now finally accept this House does not support the deal? Because she seemed to indicate just now that she is going to return to this issue again.
âThe House has been clear this deal now has to change. If the Prime Minister canât accept that then she must go.âÂ

The Brexit Betrayal: On the day we should have left the EU, Corbyn conspires with Brexiteers to block deal AGAIN plunging Britain into chaosÂ
by Jason Groves and John Stevens for the Daily Mail
Britain was in political paralysis last night after Jeremy Corbyn allied with hardline Eurosceptics to block Brexit.
On the day the UK was meant to leave the EU, MPs threw out Theresa Mayâs withdrawal deal by 344 votes to 286 â wrecking hopes of an orderly departure.
Britain faces having to hold European Parliament elections in May â almost three years after the referendum.
Mrs May even said a general election might be needed to break the deadlock, telling the Commons: âI fear we are reaching the limits of the process in this House.â Her solicitor general Robert Buckland said: âThe prospect of no Brexit is becoming a very real one indeed.â
Jeremy Corbyn yesterday ordered his MPs to vote against a stripped-down version of Mrs Mayâs exit plan, which Labour had previously indicated it could accept.

Immediately following the Governmentâs defeat, the Labour leader called for an election â without offering any solution to resolve the crisis.
Thirty-four Tory rebels, including 28 Brexit hardliners dubbed the Spartans, also voted to reject the withdrawal agreement. Tory chairman Brandon Lewis said: âLabour just voted against Brexit on Brexit Day. Whatever they say, they donât want us to leave the EU. Labourâs promise to honour the referendum result lies in tatters.â
Government sources suggested Mrs Mayâs plan could be put to MPs for a fourth time next week â possibly in a ârun-offâ against a soft Brexit option, such as a customs union.
However, Speaker John Bercow has ruled against repeated votes on the same matter.
As supporters of Brexit rallied in Parliament Square:
Mrs May confirmed publicly that she would leave Downing Street âearlier than I intendedâ in a bid to heal Tory divisions;
Ministers prepared to ask the EU for a further delay to Brexit at an emergency Brussels summit on April 10;
Tory leadership contenders Boris Johnson and Dominic Raab dropped their opposition and voted for the withdrawal agreement;
A cross-party group of MPs led by Sir Oliver Letwin and Yvette Cooper said they would try to persuade Parliament to back a soft Brexit on Monday;
The European Commission said a No Deal Brexit was now a âlikelyâ scenario;
The DUPâs deputy leader Nigel Dodds said he would rather remain in the EU than risk the break-up of the United Kingdom.

Mrs May yesterday dropped the political declaration element of her exit package and let MPs vote only on the withdrawal agreement, which includes the divorce bill, 21-month transition period, protections for citizensâ rights and the Irish backstop.
Britain faces a hung Parliament if another general election is held
Sir John Curitceâs latest numbers suggest a near identical Commons would be returned â accept with slightly weaker Tory and Labour parties in a more hung parliament
If No 10 does call another general election Britain faces another hung Parliament, according to the latest polling on the issue.
The majority of public is also opposed to going back to the polls to break the Brexit deadlock at Westminster.
But Theresa May may be forced to call a possible snap general election within weeks if she loses because remainer MPs will try to force her to deliver a soft Brexit or a second referendum.
Now she has lost MPs are preparing to force a soft Brexit and long delay to leaving the EU upon May next week.
No 10 has threatened to call a general election rather than be forced into a soft Brexit â but looming over that threat is a new forecast of what might happen in a snap election by polling expert Sir John Curtice.  Â
But Sir Johnâs latest numbers suggest a near identical Commons would be returned â accept with slightly weaker Tory and Labour parties in a more hung parliament.Â
The figures suggest even the dramatic step of a new general election would do little to break the stalemate. Â
The PM hopes this bleak outlook will persuade Labour MPs to back it as the party has accepted the divorce deal â but she is set to be disappointed. She needs 75 more votes than she got on March 12 to win.Â
Polls since the 2017 election have seen the two main parties mostly neck and neck. The Tories have held a narrow lead in recent monthsÂ
Opening the debate, Attorney General Geoffrey Cox said Labour had ânot emitted a peep of disagreement with a single clause or article of that agreement, and their position today is that they intend to vote it down. What kind of cynicism is that?â
Mr Corbyn said Labour would never support a âblind Brexitâ shorn of the political declaration that sets out a vision for the UKâs future relationship with the EU.
Ahead of the vote, the pro-Corbyn Momentum group suggested MPs could face deselection if they backed the withdrawal agreement, saying: âAfter years of botched negotiations, itâs time for all Labour MPs to reject Mayâs abysmal deal once and for all. Any Labour MP voting for a deal that leaves us with an uncertain future is undeserving of being a Labour MP.â
Only five Labour MPs voted with the Government.
The 34 Conservative MPs who voted against the exit plan included hardliners from the European Research Group, such as former ministers Steve Baker, Priti Patel and Owen Paterson. They were joined by Remainers including Dominic Grieve and Justine Greening.
Mr Baker said: âI regret to say it is time for Theresa May to follow through on her words and make way so that a new leader can deliver a withdrawal agreement which will be passed by Parliament.â
Michael Fabricant, one of 40 Eurosceptic Tories to switch sides and back Mrs May, said: âIf Brexiteers think that a victory has been won, because Remainers and Labour voted down the deal, think again.
âOn Monday, the Remainer Parliament will try to keep us in the customs union which means our obeying EU legislation and having no say in making it.â
Mrs May said the result âwould mean at least a delay and perhaps destroy Brexitâ.
On Monday, Sir Oliver will lead a fresh series of âindicative votesâ on Brexit alternatives. If he can build a consensus around a soft Brexit option, such as membership of the single market and customs union, Parliament could order Mrs May to pursue it. Remainer ministers, including Amber Rudd, Greg Clark and David Gauke, were last night urging Mrs May to embrace a customs union policy.
One Cabinet minister told the Mail they believed the UK would end up in a customs union. âI just canât see what the alternatives are,â said the source.
âThe customs union vote is close and there are a lot of people in Cabinet pushing for it.â
Treasury Chief Secretary Liz Truss has told MPs Mrs May should âplay hard ballâ and push for No Deal â by refusing to lay the regulations for the European elections.
Mr Raab called on ministers to step up preparations for No Deal.
Government sources last night insisted Mrs Mayâs plan was not dead, pointing out that it was defeated by âonlyâ 58 votes â down from 149 earlier this month and 230 in January.
Defence Secretary Gavin Williamson has been deployed to try to build bridges with the DUP, whose ten MPs are seen as critical to any chance of the withdrawal agreement passing.
But Mr Dodds insisted: âI would stay in the European Union and remain, rather than risk Northern Irelandâs position. Thatâs how strongly I feel about the union.â  Â
Dominic Raab courts Eurosceptics by backing no deal ahead of fight with Michael Gove and Boris Johnson to be the next Tory leader
Dominic Raab attempted to court Eurosceptic Tories last night after endorsing a No Deal Brexit.
The former Brexit secretary, who is seen as a leading candidate to succeed Theresa May, changed his long-standing position to vote in favour of the withdrawal deal.
Speaking in the Commons, he said he wanted to avoid a long extension to Article 50 delaying Brexit and also to avoid the prospect of the UK taking part in European Parliament elections starting on May 23.
But shortly after the vote he made another pitch to hardliners, posting a clip of his speech, with a statement saying: âWe need to expedite our preparations for a WTO departure.â This is a reference to trading on World Trade Organisation terms, without an EU trade deal.
By switching, he was in the same voting lobby as Boris Johnson, who also abandoned his opposition to the deal this week.

Explaining his decision yesterday, Mr Johnson wrote on Twitter that he remained âintensely critical of the dealâ.
But he said: âWe have a choice to make now, and that means choosing between options that actually exist.
âI have come to the sad conclusion that neither this Government nor this Parliament is willing to leave with no deal. We therefore run the risk of being forced to accept an even worse version of Brexit or losing Brexit altogether.
âA bad deal that we have a chance to improve in the next stage of negotiations must be better than those alternatives.
âIt is very painful to vote for this deal. But I hope we can now work together to remedy its defects, avoid the backstop trap and strive to deliver the Brexit people voted for.â
Mr Raab told the Commons he wanted to avoid a long delay to Brexit because of the âvery dangerous and corrosive effect on public trust in our democracyâ.
His intervention came as leadership candidates faced a furious backlash from Tory MPs for âposturingâ for the leadership before Brexit had been secured.
Mrs May said on Wednesday she would quit as Tory leader if her Brexit deal went through. But with no sign of a Commons majority, MPs said the leadership contenders should focus on getting Brexit through instead of their own ambitions.
One Cabinet minister raged: âEveryone is building leadership campaigns and just looking at the prize. But no one is doing anything to get the deal done.
âThereâs going to be nothing left! Theyâre going to be fighting to be leader of the opposition.â
In the Commons, former Home Office minister Sir Mike Penning said: âThose running leadership campaigns to replace her should, for Godâs sake, put it on the back burner until we get this through.â
One member of the Government said the attempts by leadership candidates to court media attention this week were âunseemly and grubbyâ.
The MP, who said they had been courted by all the likely contenders, said: âI told them youâve got to sort Brexit first.
âThereâs no point having a vision if you havenât got Brexit through.â
Allies of Jeremy Hunt furiously denied reports he had already secured the support of 75 MPs, and had another 25 âpossiblesâ. The report, one friend said, was an attempt to portray him as the favourite.Â
So who are the candidates looking to replace May and what chance have they got?Â
Michael Gove â 5/2
Unlike Boris and Raab, Gove has kept on board with Mayâs deal and will therefore have greater appeal among his remainer colleagues. He was also seen as a âhigh priest of Brexiteersâ, meaning he could appeal to Tories on both sides of the divide.
The drawback of this position is that hardline leavers and remainers may see him as part of opposing side. His other potential drawback is his perceived disloyalty after he knifed Boris Johnson in last leadership contest.
Mr Gove, 51, the adopted son of a Scottish fish merchant, is a cabinet heavyweight whoâs served as Education Secretary and Justice Secretary.
His debating skills, intellect and wit put him well above many candidates and is popular with Tory members.
Boris Johnson â 4/1
The 54-year-old former Foreign Secretary is undoubtedly the best-known candidate outside of the Westminster bubble.
His scruffy style, regular TV appearances, chaotic private life and show-off Classics references make him well known to the electorate.
He has experience of power and winning elections, having been twice voted London mayor but was seen as a bumbling foreign secretary.
He is unpopular among many MPs, who may form a âStop Borisâ campaign to prevent him getting to Number 10.
However, party grassroots members love him and heâs top of the ConservativeHome league table.Â
It has been claimed Home Secretary Sajid Javid (pictured in Downing Street) has floated the idea of a âdream ticketâ with him as Prime Minister and Mr Gove as Chancellor
Former Brexit secretary Dominic Raab fell in line behind the deal today, denting his popularity among hardline Brexiteers
Sajid Javid â 9/1
The Home Secretary, 49, is a remainer who changed to a Brexiteer after the referendum.
He is the son of a bus driver who came to Britain from Pakistan with ÂŁ1 in his pocket. Javid proved himself in business, becoming head of credit trading at Deutsche Bank.
He has experience of being Culture and Business secretary, a role in which he cracked down on union rights.
His strengths are seen as his extraordinary rags-to-riches back story, but is widely seen as a wooden and poor public speaker.
There were rumours earlier this week that he could form part of the âStop Borisâ ticket, with Michael Gove potentially in support.Â
Dominic Raab â 8/1
The 46-year-old former Brexit Secretary and diehard Brexiteer is the son of a Czech-born Jewish refugee who fled the Nazis in 1938 and died of cancer when Raab was 12.
He is relatively inexperienced, lasting only four months as Brexit Secretary. He voted against May in leadership confidence vote. Mr Raab is seen as a skilled debater who honed his skills as an adversarial lawyer with blue chip legal firm Linklaters.
His weekness is that he seen lacking people skills and thus is unlikely to beat a more experienced candidate.
Unlike Boris and Raab, Gove (pictured today) has kept on board with Mayâs deal and will therefore have greater appeal among his remainer colleagues. He was also seen as a âhigh priest of Brexiteersâ, meaning he could appeal to Tories on both sides of the divide
Others in the running include Foreign Secretary Jeremy Hunt and Work and Pensions Secretary Esther McVey
How will the next leader be chosen?Â
If Mrs Mayâs deal goes through, the UK is likely to leave the EU on May 22 and she would resign as Tory leader that day but stay on as interim PM while the contest to replace her begins.Â
Any Tory MP can stand but they need two nominations from colleagues.Â
A series of secret votes would be held every Tuesday and Thursday among the 314 members of the Conservative Parliamentary Party.
The last-placed candidate is eliminated at every stage and once it is clear who the front-runners are the back-markers usually drop out and support someone else.Â
After David Cameron stood down following the referendum in 2016 there were five candidates in the first round, who were whittled down to two: Theresa May and Andrea Leadsom.Â
The final two candidates then move on to the second phase, when party members vote by postal ballot.Â
Candidates will be expected to make speeches to members and tour the country to try to win support. This second phase is likely to last for up to a month.Â
Only members who have been in the party for three months or more can vote in a leadership contest, so joining now would not entitle you to a say.Â
Conservative sources say the whole process could be completed within a month to six weeks.Â
Jeremy Hunt â 6/1
The Foreign Secretary, 52, is an ex-Remainer who may arouse suspicion among the partyâs Brexiteer members.
He is the eldest son of Admiral Sir Nicholas Hunt and is married to a Chinese wife and he speaks Mandarin.
He has business experience and, before politics, he set up an educational publisher which was sold for ÂŁ30million in 2017.
Mr Hunt has widespread cabinet experience and was the longest-serving health secretary in history.
Despite being one of the most experienced ministers in the field, unusually, he has made few political enemies and is therefore seen as someone who could unite the party after devisive battles over Brexit.
Andrea Leadsom â 20/1
The Leader of the Commons gained quite following when she stood for leader in 2016, but her bid fell apart when she made an ill-considered comment comparing her experience as a mother to the childless Mrs May.
Mrs Leadsom is a 55-year-old mother of three and a former city trader.
Since then however, she has blossomed as Leader of the Commons, winning plaudits for taking on Speaker John Bercow.
Popular among members and colleagues, she is now widely expected to have another tilt as leading the party.
Esther McVey â 50/1
The 51-year-old former Welfare Secretary is also an ardent Brexiteer.
She spent the first two years of her life in foster care and was a breakfast TV presenter before becoming a Tory MP on Merseyside.
Won plaudits with members for resigning from Cabinet over Brexit deal and is seen as tough, having braved out vicious targeting by Labour during her time as welfare minister.
Some in the party say she doesnât have the intellectual fire power for top job and she is ranked 14th in ConservativeHome league table.Â
Andrea Leadsom is also expected to throw her name into the hat after her bid in 2016
What happens now that Mayâs deal has failed?
MPs will try to force a soft Brexit next week â and No 10 has threatened to call an election rather than be railroaded.Â
Technically Brexit day will be reset to April 12, but rebel MPs have already started the process to delay that by months or even years.
On Monday, MPs will have more âindicative votesâ to choose a Brexit alternative. Momentum is gaining for a majority to form behind agreeing a customs union with the EU and holding a second referendum.Â
Once MPs have a majority for a Brexit alternative, they will try to pass a law on Wednesday to force Theresa May to adopt their plan.Â
Ministers have threatened to call an election if MPs force them into a soft Brexit â and at this point May could call one.Â
The PM can call an election by getting a two thirds majority of MPs â which is unlikely to be difficult because Labour also want one.
A snap election would be incredibly messy and would likely deliver a similar division among the parties.Â
May could instead announce she is stepping down, agree a long delay to Brexit to hold an election and Tory leadership contest.
A delay to Brexit would also mean Britain must participate in EU elections at the end of May.
