Vote is 9.30-10 so results by 10.15 latest, if I’m reading it right.

We'll leave with no deal and have to set up a trade deal with the US. Next year we have a GE and Labour win by a landslide after mass rioting. Sanders wins next years election, starting a socialist pact between the UK and USA that deals with the environmental catastrophe by building a fake moon made of recycled plastic to permanently eclipse the sun, although this is hit by a meteor and sends tons of radioactive molten plastic raining down across the planet.

Checks out.

No. You need to pass a Vote of No Confidence by 2/3rd majority first and then another bunch of poo poo has to happen. Some of which isn't really real, but a gentlemen's agreement sealed by handshake in the late 19th century.

No, a VoNC only requires a simple majority (and the Government not to pass a confidence vote within two weeks), it's 2/3rds for an early election under FTPA.

It means he has no idea what he's talking about, ignore him. You never need to win a VONC by anything other than 50%+1

He basically had a tantrum because the doctor asked how many deaths would be acceptable for Brexit, then called him a poo poo doctor.

He accused the doctor who'd been consulted on the government's Yellowhammer risk assessment as being a remoaner and a scaremonger.

So, basically insulted the expert who'd drawn up part of the government's own findings. Which of course Mogg likes to lie about because of how damaging they are.

Aye Reel Politik making memes about him until the press couldn't ignore it and he decided to respond really hosed him. Went from a non entity to Gay Frog man quick.

Jo Swindon is probably going to pick up a lot of seats but that'll hurt the Tories more than Labour. And Jo will lose her seat to the SNP most likely and it will be hilarious.

Using the election matters website to work out which seats the lib dems could target reveals that 86 of the 100 seats are tory. Make of that what you will.

And they also split 50/50 leave/remain.

This is going to be a wild GE.
