Watch, they will find a way to make it political. They always do.

Wooo go Boris!!

He insinuated it

Not sure if he'd be able to even call one.

2/3 majority of MPs need to agree to call one

fixed term parliament act at this point is destroying the country

Kinda agree.

What happens if the vote passes and boris refuses?

I would like to see the queen veto it like she did for Blair

So, Boris could call another election, OR Labour could call a vote of no confidence. Both require a 2 / 3 MP majority to do

Labour don't want either

Not sure what Labour wants to do tbh..

Not sure of the arithmetic or where the others stand

They're going to throw their weight behind this anti-no deal legislation

I *think* they'll get shagged if it actually goes to an election

Boris is on a tight rope RN tbh

That's i don't think he's got the 2/3 needed for an election

He'd need 434 votes for it

Tories alone don't have it sadly

If they had it, we wouldn't be in this mess

Hmm, possibly.

The Tory rebel group could just be larger tbh.

Not sure what the internals of the Labour party look like.

How unified they are.

Certainly he needs to make good on his purge threat

Maybe.

Remainer Tories are essentially holding the country to ransom at this point

More or less tbh.

The remainers DO need to be purged, BUT not too many

Kill a couple careers, but not all of them.

There'll likely be only a half dozen or so that step out of line

Possibly. I'm not sure how many of those need to be purged either.

All of them

That's a mistake tbh

Then they're guaranteed to vote against the government out of spite

They can't

If you purge a few to show you mean business, then they may fall in line.

The purge would be a response to them voting against the government, not prior to

Not sure about that tbh.

You can't operate a government with a fifth column within your party
