CoolCab posted:it's an issue that's settled, and as such is "safe" - you can be as anti abortion as you like, poo poo ain't changing anywhere in the UK most likely and it's a great pitch at social conservative/catholic voters. i bet there are more then you'd guess In 2008 there was an interesting litmus test when Nadine Dorries put forward a series of amendments to reduce the abortion limit to 12, then 16, then 20, then 22 weeks. Labour voting on this at each stage was: 12 weeks: 261 noes (+2 tellers), 17 ayes 16 weeks: 257 noes (+2 tellers), 19 ayes 20 weeks: 246 noes (+2 tellers), 43 ayes (+1 teller) 22 weeks: 237 noes (+2 tellers), 60 ayes

Both May and Brokenshire and a multitude of Tory backbenchers have openly criticised the current legacy provisions as being disproportionately focused on the armed forces - a bold faced lie by the way. That sentiment extends across the aisle to a degree - Spellar, as part of the defence committee, backed a similar sentiment and Dan "wooden plank" Jarvis wrote several questions to Brokenshire in recent months questioning the wisdom of pursuing prosecutions of former armed forces personnel

legit can't see any tories not backing the queen's speech. It'll go through. I'd imagine none of them feel comfortable in their majorities to be able to do another election. Even the scots.

It's going to be a hard sell to convince people Corbyn's plans will cost too much next election, when NI is getting 800 a head just to keep an incredibly unpopular PM.

There might be some uncomfortable debate on some amendments but a rebel on a confidence bill is shooting themselves in the head. They can't afford to be kicking anyone out at the moment though. That's what makes this whole thing so unstable. May can't pull a three line whip on literally anything.

Jeremy Corbyn 16 mins · This Tory-DUP deal has not been done in the national interest, but in the interest of Theresa May and the Conservatives' own political survival. Austerity has failed. Cuts to vital public services must be halted right across the UK, not just in Northern Ireland. The government must immediately answer two questions: Where is the money for the Tory-DUP deal coming from? And, will all parts of the UK receive the much needed additional funding that Northern Ireland will get as part of the deal?
