^^^ You're forgetting My Hero. Question for the legal team. My understanding of the FTPA is that it prohibits the formation of new coalitions every time the ruling party's majority dips. The VONC provision also gives the ruling party 2 weeks after the vote to shore up their majority. So. What's stopping Labour calling a VONC, and then the lib dems forming a coalition with the tories? Right now this is my prime concern, that Corbyn calls the vote and the libs pull a handwringing 'awful but necessary' coalition, allowing the bastards to stay in power? Like lets not get into the morality, or how it would impact on future electability, because I personally believe that Swinson already has zero morals and would absolutely detonate the Libs future electability to get in on the fat stacks coming to anyone making no deal happen. I just want to know about the legality of it, like could the libs bolster the tories in the two weeks the FTPA gives them? Bobby Deluxe fucked around with this message at 16:55 on Sep 28, 2019 |

I don't watch British TV cause I have taste but I like the letters they send me every couple months talking about sending "enforcement officers" round. Love that language which makes it sound like theyr gonna send round some toughs to beat me up. Also that they threaten to bust into my house on X date and beat me up every couple months for the last 7 years and have never arrived once. Kinda makes it less threatening but they keep sending the letters

Gonzo McFee posted:https://twitter.com/alexwickham/status/1177894790907731968 Votes at 16 would be massive - back-of-the-envelope estimate of enfranchising about 1.4 million people. Imagine being the governing party, having to vote against that and then losing - you've handed the opposing parties the easiest targeted-campaign for votes in the world. looking forward to some absolute shithousery during the conference then. Just chuck any popular idea on the table and force the government attempt to prevent votes from happening at all costs - including mass enfranchisement - while they bleat about saving democracy & respecting the will of the people.

Votes at 16 would ensure a labour landslide and bury the Tories, 100% So are the Tories all going to be away at conference? Does that not give the opposition the chance to pass whatever the hell they like?

Genuine question- can passing votes at 16 be done so easily though? Even with the Tory numbers probably reduced, I imagine the LDs would vote against it because young people don't like them, ex-Tory, CUK and LD defectors would vote against it too I imagine. Surely it would be a slow process too, given the requirements for 1.4m (thanks PaF for the figure) people to register to vote and be added to the roll. It would also be labelled as mega undemocratic by every poo poo rag and gammon in the land, because they don't have the logic to understand what democracy means - but this is an ultra lol point.

the FTPA doesn't prevent coalition formation - it does remove the imperative to resign after losing a vote a matter of confidence (something key to the govt agenda, or something more pedestrian like a money bill prior to the FTPA), so there is no reason to immediately form a new supply of confidence. The government just goes on and instead obliges the opposition to find a majority to no-confidence it, which it will struggle immensely to do. the threat posed by Swinson has two scenarios - LDEM failing to support a LAB no-confidence motion narrow enough to have a plausible chance of overturning the government (given that it supported the Labour VONC in January, this seems questionable; LDEM looks set to make gains in the current polling). The other threat is of LDEM putting forth a VONC as a stunt and then browbeating LAB about the head about it, as SNP did last year. the main thing inhibiting Labour calling a VONC at this point is the same hesitation back in December last year - poor polling. This being also why the Mail is running headlines like this: https://twitter.com/TheNewspaperBot/status/1177359199577300992

The BBC did give a pretty awesome description of a detector van in response to a freedom of information request though.quote:the optical detector in the detector van uses a large lens to collect that light and focus it on to an especially sensitive device, which converts fluctuating light signals into electrical signals, which can be electronically analysed. If a receiver is being used to watch broadcast programmes then a positive reading is returned.
