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

2019-09-04 21:19:28 UTC  

They don't want an election because it's being used as a mechanism for no deal
