bump_fn posted:then what does this mean The Fixed-Term Parliaments Act says you need 2/3 to trigger an election but you can bypass it by repealing the FTPA or saying "this bill specifically ignores the FTPA and causes an election" or whatever because our parliament is made of string and pocket lint.

Following the age-old template of just deciding to ignore convention and see what happens, hoping that nobody has the balls to stand up to it. Emergency powers no doubt on the horizon. No doubt he thinks he's loving Caesar or something.

Beautiful. Particularly love Rory '30 degree lean' Stewart. In local news, popular Green MEP Molly Scott Cato is apparently running for MP in Stroud in the next election. loving stupid idea when Labour fought so hard to win it back from the Tories in 2017 and have a majority of about 600. e: 144 is 12 times 12 which used to be important in the olden days before we decided to gently caress off learning tables past 10 sebzilla fucked around with this message at 15:23 on Sep 9, 2019 |

Stopping "new MPs" being unduly influenced is a good shout tbh. The current crowd won't back a Johnson candidate. After an election who the gently caress knows?

goddamnedtwisto posted:The 2010 Labour Party was an extremely different animal. They'd have cut almost as hard as the Tories with the same results - except of course the deaths and the spiralling debts would have been used against them full-bore by the press, and with the death of the Cameron project some loving far-right vampire would have got a Blair-size majority in 2015 and we'd probably already have privatised everything from the NHS to the Army and the Labour right would be telling us we needed to compromise and find common ground with them on their new plan to pay off all the poonds Broon spent by selling anyone with a net worth of under a million pounds to the Chinese for slavery, organ farming and mineral content. So you're saying Nick Clegg... curbed the worst excesses of the Tories?
