Well they have to call one eventully

Yet again people will always find a way to blame Boris for something

Unless they all just want to sit in the Commons and do nothing for the next 3 years

They might wait until 2022

I mean it was obvious he was going to lose that vote

even though I held out hope he wasnt

Probably

he still was

Boris has just walked out of the Commons

I think a GE is the only option now

No Deal is Blocked

A Deal is blocked

Any Deal that gets opposition support would be Electoral Suicide for the Conservatives

as Mogg says, the deal is in purgatory

They want an extension

No Deal it is

GE and then No Deal

Is that feasible?

Well after an extension a GE is possible

rather likely in fact

Is it possible to extend for a very short amount of time?

And the Conservatives will probably win that election

The current one propsed is 3 months i think

So reasonably short

That's looooong

lol

I was thinking like a wekk

week*

Well the Conservatives can Leave before it is up

Once they get a majority

Really? Neat

Well i'm pretty sure they can

Is it true when the opposition says they haven't seen the economical impact assessment of the deal yet?

That's what they just claimed, they haven't had a chance to see that at all

If Boris gets a big majority in parliament he could pretty much do what he wants

I assume so @Hopix

He can revoke all of the acts passed before that constrains him

Which is why we need a GE
