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.

The problem is that the more eyes on him that Boris has in an unfriendly environment (which means any environment that is not a settee in a TV studio) the worse he looks. Strength seems like the thing that every single Tory and Right wing person worships at the altar of, and Boris looks loving weak all the time.

It really is if a right wing news commentator became PM, because the only environment he can survive in is one where every agrees with him and laughs at his jokes.

what.
I have never, in all my years, seen a speech from a Prime minister fall to pieces as quickly, and as shockingly as that one. His speech last night was awful, this was worse. He didnt even seem to have the half hearted support from the whips on the benches, just dead loving silence as he got roasted over and over and over again.

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

SNP have shown they're flexible on this and have voted on purely English matters.

Polls don't mean anything anymore so it's anyone's game. Only way to find out is a GE

I hugely doubt the "fair coverage" in elections will be followed this time though. They'll just monster Jeremy the whole time and eat the *checks notes* zero consequences.

I'm sure they will vote on big ticket bills that draw media but on smaller more run of the mill matters I'm not sure they will shift much - especially without some significant sweetners.

Like anything which doesn't effect Barnett consequentials etc

I really hope that we get a "No-deal is no longer possible" act through and can then go to the polls and bear witness as Johnson does what every other Tory has tried to do, which is win when you don't have the media in your corner all the time.

So used to playing on easy mode that you think you can handle anything.

It will when the people are only voting for them because "that's where the scottish left are". Exposing nationalism as exclusionary is not a bad thing for the left.

Yeah there's really nothing compelling the BBC to stick to their own rules - I highly doubt they'd have even tried to give him a fair showing in 2017 if they hadn't been confident he was going to lose in a landslide like all the polls showed

That's the Daily Telegraph's Europe editor, who also broke the story about Cummings saying the government's EU negotiations are a sham (which Boris apparently bitched out the editorial office for running). It's a sad state of affairs when your own client newspaper is clowning on you.

Yes, the debate probably starts just before 7 and the vote probably won't be until between 9 & 10. So basically come back in 3 hours to find out the result, unless you're a moron like me who has Parliament on in the background while about to play Hearts of Iron
