@The Electric Lizard I found the article on it!

Unironically the enemy, which remainers are, are gettinf more violent

It won't make much difference

Johnson was going to lose the vote regardless

He is about 20 votes short

So Philip Lee crossing the floor doesn't mean much

How the hell did they get this vote on the table so quickly?

His best option is either going to be calling a GE or advising the Queen not to sign

Grand so the cultist enemy are really wanting to fight

Mps leaving a party should trigger an immediate byelection

Because the Speaker chooses the votes and he is Pro-Remain

The speaker needs to be removed as he's no longer impartial

That was obvious months ago

There is not real way to do it though

Ye we can't called a vote of no confidence in him again

I really wish we had the American political system which would have granted more executive power to Boris

Surely though if he's acting against the laws of parliament then he can be removed?

Not with the enemy in charge

I would imagine it is possible somehow

He seems to be above laws in that role

I am not an expert on Parliament though so i don't know

They are debating the vote in Parliament now if anyone wants to watch https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=93Z2mTFebV0

There isn't actually any law about the speaker's impartiallity, just convention

noice

ty for the link man

at the same time there is a convention of allowing a speaker to be unopposed during an election. something the tories have been hinting at dismissing this time.

I have a horrible feeling the anti brexit alliance is going to place it's jackboot in the face of democracy today

i.e. replacing bercow

@system11 I don't think it will

I think at the end of all this we will leave without a deal

probably gonna give it a good try though

The Remainers just don't have the time or support to stop Brexit

you watching the debate atm lizard?

Yes Partially

I'd actually accept the queen breaking convention and getting involved as far as legacyvpowers allow. Good old Liz, she's a real trooper

An Absolute Monarchy could be good

Imagine having such a shit parliament that a monarchy seems not so bad
