Because around 500 out of the 650 MPs in Parliament don't want to leave the EU under any circumstances, they'll never let the UK leave.
There has never been such a huge disconnect between Westminster and the Electorate.

The british government now should dance to the tune of the Benny Hill Show

In the meantime, they're dancing to fringe bowler hat lunatics like the DUP.

I wish May would get a permanent reprieve from her job as Prime Minister, she has been a total disaster.

Hapless and hopeless May, who would form a spigot committee to run a bath. They would spend the best part of 30 months negotiating with hot and cold then decide to take a shower.
Parliament have ignited a fuse that could well politically detonate at the next general election. The toxicity could be apparent if UK has to take part in European Elections.
The pompous irritating arrogant Marcon will demand a 2 year extension, 2nd referendum, any means to maintain the status quo.
As the eurozone debt to GDP ratio festers away in the southern European states calls will increase for the ECB to mutualise and form a eurozone budget.

Then the electorate must show those 500 MPs the door. The Eurozone is a massive mess, mostly caused by the Germans, eg immigrants, Russian gas, NATO, dieselgate...
What is wrong with Labor? The euroship is sinking and they want the UK to laze around on the deck reading poetry.
Goodlucktoyou
@aly. I almost fell off my chair. Then I remembered “the witch is dead” reaching number 2 in the UK pop charts. On the floor now.

There has to be extension to Article 50, even for a few weeks.

The EU doesn't want to see their golden goose leaving the EU. So the EU said no further negotiable on Brexit term and condition. The EU wants to see a more chaotic situation in British Parliament and the MPs disagreement on Brexit.
The PM Theresa May negotiation of Brexit with the EU was fruitless and meaningless. It was wasting time. She wasn't good negotiator and leader after all. The PM Theresa May should resign and replace with her with someone who has the capability for dealing with the EU leaders and Brexit. Otherwise, the Britain may never able to leave the EU.
I was wondering by what the hell on the earth the country which Colonized and divided other countries' states and territories and then given it away to another country as a reward for their loyalty to the United Kingdom and it has done whatever it wanted was not able to unite the Politicians for to leave and freedom from the EU.
