the rules are important because it means that Labour and the Tories have to be given equal time which means that the time the media give over to Tories yelling incoherently about Jeremy StalinHitlerVenezuela Corbyn has to be matched with Labour holding big events where they launch popular new policies

radmonger posted:There is a reason the Tories are keen on the early election that all opposition parties are trying to delay. it's because they want to gently caress around with election timing so we automatically leave on 31st October with No Deal, OP marktheando posted:As I said this didn't help at all in the Euro elections. I think people know Corbyn by this point, two years later, you aren't going to get such a dramatic turnaround again. a) European election results basically never correlate with GE results since many people don't bother to vote at all and many others treat it as a protest vote b) unlike a GE the European campaign didn't feature a manifesto with multiple new and popular policies

tbh any talk of "after a hard Brexit" is basically moot because there's no real way for it to happen hard Brexit necessitates a hard border in Ireland which is unacceptable both to them and to the EU and Parliament has made it entirely clear that it's opposed to No Deal and will pass any required legislation to prevent it happening the only way I can imagine it happening is after an election which somehow gives the Tories enough of a majority of disaster capitalists and raving nutjobs that they can No Deal without Parliament voting to stop it
