"And the government side has unleashed hordes of amendments, to change every possible aspect of the motion and suggest all kinds of measures that should be debated instead (my favourite is the Bat Habitat (regulation) Bill). "

lets just hope they dont die from old age half way through

2019-09-04 21:02:11 UTC  

Literally sounds like some Monty Python shit

2019-09-04 21:03:05 UTC  

looks like the brexitiers are sick off the remainer's bullshit

2019-09-04 21:03:14 UTC  

That is the very weird way that the UK parliament works

2019-09-04 21:06:56 UTC  

This is one possibility if the Lords vote the bill through

2019-09-04 21:07:11 UTC  

but would he get a GE after the bill goes through?

2019-09-04 21:07:15 UTC  

Yes

2019-09-04 21:07:30 UTC  

Labour has said it would support a GE after the bill is made law

2019-09-04 21:07:43 UTC  

ah yes

2019-09-04 21:07:58 UTC  

Are they just saying that though?

2019-09-04 21:08:02 UTC  

The only problem would be if they could win, Because it would mean that Boris has reneged on his promise to leave by October 31st

2019-09-04 21:08:20 UTC  

So there vote could be split by people voting BXP

2019-09-04 21:08:48 UTC  

I am pretty confident that they would support a GE after the bill

2019-09-04 21:10:13 UTC  

does the UK have preferential voting?

2019-09-04 21:10:36 UTC  

What do you mean by preferential voting?

2019-09-04 21:11:11 UTC  

where you can tick multiple boxes

2019-09-04 21:11:22 UTC  

It does for some stuff, not sure what though

2019-09-04 21:11:26 UTC  

I don't think so

2019-09-04 21:11:28 UTC  

In a GE

2019-09-04 21:11:49 UTC  

that ain't good

2019-09-04 21:11:54 UTC  

I think some parties have it for elections but i don't think it is done like that for a GE

2019-09-04 21:12:45 UTC  

I think I saw it at the local elections

2019-09-04 21:13:02 UTC  

yea, then a split between people voting for the brexit party and the cons would be bad

2019-09-04 21:13:39 UTC  

It depends on if they reach an agreement or not

2019-09-04 21:13:46 UTC  

and for a GE i think they would

2019-09-04 21:15:09 UTC  

coalition?

2019-09-04 21:15:20 UTC  

It would be a possibility

2019-09-04 21:15:29 UTC  

So...
What now?

2019-09-04 21:15:42 UTC  

Now The Lords is trying to filibuster or whatever

2019-09-04 21:15:47 UTC  

Likely more of an agreement on what party has candidates standing in certain areas

2019-09-04 21:16:13 UTC  

I still think No Deal Brexit is very likely

2019-09-04 21:16:16 UTC  

in each seat though, if the votes are split then labour or the libDems could take seats with a minority.

2019-09-04 21:16:29 UTC  
2019-09-04 21:17:12 UTC  

If they come to an agreement there will likely only be one of the two standing in a constituency @killerqwerty

2019-09-04 21:17:49 UTC  

🤔

2019-09-04 21:18:19 UTC  

Well this is Yougov

2019-09-04 21:18:35 UTC  

They said we would vote Remain in the first referendum
