Necrothatcher posted:I'm curious to see how Corbyn not going for a GE will play. I think his reasoning is sound, but it reads a bit funny if you don't know the details of what's going on. the current line seems to be "we do want an election but we need to get this bill done first" which I think is concise enough for general understanding

I still believe their only goal is to drag this out until no-deal can't be prevented, then lose the GE and gently caress off to collect their millions.

peanut- posted:I think the longer Johnson can be kept around looking incompetent and incapable of delivering turbo Brexit, the more likely the Brexit Party will be heavily involved in a GE which is what will gently caress the Tories. Watching Newsnight what was really striking was the unity of the opposition. They lined up Labour, the Lib Dems and the SNP and asked 'what now?' and the answer from every one was 'block no deal, then we have an election'. And after that? 'Second referendum.' At the last election Labour were basically being attacked from all sides. I'm sure some of that will happen again, but if the other parties can bring themselves to turn the majority of their fire on the Tories then all bets are off.

I cant trust the british public to not gently caress things up spectacularly and end up in super-turbo-megabrexit I could easily see Actual Hitler being PM with the correct combination of people inexplicably voting LDs / boomer living corpses drooling over paup misery / midlands voting to gently caress everyone because they got tired of being poo poo on forever

Watching the Beeb right now and every single headline tomorrow is how de Pfeffel has fully hosed it, lost control, been humiliated. Even the beeb are basically saying "Lmao he wanted to be PM and if he loses this election he's gonna be really sad.

Presumably we don't need very long before a pre-Brexit election is impossible, at which point Labour is free to VONC away (assuming no deal has been blocked in some way).

Hentai Jihadist posted:yeah but imagine that the england football team are also useless jellyfish so its an actual accomplishment Lol England reached a World Cup semi final and play really well with some of Europe’s best players, which makes the analogy more apt because like Labour, the media hates them for *reasons* and repeats those reasons enough until the idea seeps into culture and accepted memory.

Wow I forgot that tomorrow is our shiny new PM's first PMQs. I don't see him pulling a May and sending an underling in his place, surely it's going to be a bloodbath that even the Guardian can't parlay into a draw. A stormer of a first episode after the break, can't wait to see the thrilling conclusion to this one tomorrow night.
