Have the 2 refs, the timing will need to be eu ref first to get the scots to help get it over the line. Also means that Scottish independence is not a foregone conclusion, but I am cool with Scottish independence fyi but prefer unions and poo poo. Call new election, slim majority, implement full socialism now.

And according to the bbc's banner the lib dems won't vote to trigger an election. They're not even going to wait to start propping up the Tories.

can someone explain the logic of "legislating to rule out no-deal will make it harder to negotiate with the EU" or is this just some bullshit the tories are repeating over and over again so people begin to think it's true

It's the international negotiation equivalent of threatening suicide to manipulate people

Brexiteers think this means holding the EU's future hostage, forcing the EU to surrender to the reborn British Empire and accept British terms. The reality-based community realises this means the UK is holding its own economy hostage, and the EU will just go "  well we tried" before watching Albion sink into the sea.

There's some logic behind not completely ruling out no deal, in as much as being willing to walk away from a bad deal as a general principle should always theoretically be on the table, even if you're in the weaker negotiating position. Unless you've completely loving botched everything and don't have a leg to stand on, so it's a good thing that they haven't spent three years doing exactly that.

bump_fn posted:probably not but they could form a coalition, eg with SNP Neither party seems keen on a formal coalition. SNP will most likely back the necessary confidence vote to put Corbyn in No.10 because otherwise it's the Tories, though I'm sure some posters here will say they'll do everything they can to make sure the Tories get back in, but Corbyn's said he'll do a new indy ref in a couple years if they want, so they'll put him in, and then abstain or not be able to vote on much else due to EVEL. What's important is if Labour have an English majority for EVEL or not.

I know we are all excited at Boris making GBS threads the bed but if there was a GE he can still campaign on people v parliament and with what rhe EU just said he still has "i need a majority to force their hand". And nothing that happens in parliament matters anymore, it's all about the bbc news, the papers, and twitter in that order.

freeasinbeer posted:Man is the Jam man really looking down the barrel of losing 45 seats if a GE was held? It's fairly grim. But polling in the UK isn't necessarily that reliable as it's really not done at a constituency level. The potential swing would be bad but polling in 2017 was way out so all we can do is hope that once campaign law kicks in and the news legal has to give Labour a fair go it'll correct.

Of course that doesn't mean the SNP won't continue to abstain on English and Welsh only bills as it's as much party position now

The option to walk away from a bad deal is still on the table though - as we have the option to keep things as they are.
