so for example

2019-12-23 00:42:53 UTC  

east dunbartonshire is probably the smallest majority

2019-12-23 00:42:56 UTC  

in uk history

2019-12-23 00:43:05 UTC  

i'm probably wrong, there might have been a seat with 1

2019-12-23 00:43:23 UTC  

but 149(?) is still small

2019-12-23 00:43:28 UTC  

razor-thin

2019-12-23 00:43:51 UTC  

Yup

2019-12-23 00:44:09 UTC  

149 is gone at the next election barring a miracle

2019-12-23 00:44:55 UTC  

You only need 75 people to change their mind to win it. Or 150 to decide to switch to not voting or for a minor party.

2019-12-23 00:45:06 UTC  

Wouldn't be surprised to see her lose her seat next election

2019-12-23 00:45:11 UTC  

Yup

2019-12-23 00:46:14 UTC  

Boris is probably going to win the next election big and then it’ll be up to whether Labour or the Liberals get their arses in gear.

2019-12-23 01:27:35 UTC  

his majority was insane

2019-12-23 01:28:25 UTC  

They went from their best ever results under blair then never won an election afterward in a decline to the point of arguably their worst ever result.

2019-12-23 02:16:02 UTC  

But those are the same things... People found Corbyn unpopular because of his stance on Brexit

2019-12-23 02:16:21 UTC  

Among other things

2019-12-23 02:23:48 UTC  

Notice that they also lost 9% of their vote to the LDs

2019-12-23 03:04:46 UTC  

Can someone explain to me the current Brexit deal, was told it’s a pretty shit deal

2019-12-23 03:32:34 UTC  

@Lewis Basically it keeps the payment to the EU but is designed for us to diverge economically, we continue cooperating on anti-terrorism and the like but be don't accept the jurisdiction of EU courts and aren't forced to keep ourselves aligned to the EU. The only bad thing about it is up to Boris. Basically whether or not he decides to take us out on no deal or on a free trade deal OR whether he makes concessions to the EU. Considering that he's already altering the deal to favour the UK I doubt he's going to give concessions.

2019-12-23 03:33:58 UTC  

So basically no deal is the best option

2019-12-23 03:34:09 UTC  

That’s probably not gonna happen

2019-12-23 03:34:30 UTC  

Well no. A free trade agreement without ties is the best option.

2019-12-23 03:36:17 UTC  

The most likely outcome right now is FTA without ties followed by a kinda no deal (basically everything sorted but no trade deal) and then by (if the EU puts up a fight) a proper no deal.

2019-12-23 03:36:42 UTC  

Do you really reckon Boris will pull of Brexit ?

2019-12-23 03:36:48 UTC  

Off

2019-12-23 03:36:53 UTC  

Properly and actually worth t

2019-12-23 03:36:56 UTC  

Yup.

2019-12-23 03:37:13 UTC  

I remain open to being unconvinced but his actions so far have been very convincing.

2019-12-23 03:37:36 UTC  

Yeah agreed I’m fairly new to politics only started caring this year tbh

2019-12-23 03:37:51 UTC  

Everyone has to start somewhere.

2019-12-23 03:38:24 UTC  

Yeah true and yeah so far Boris seems to be okay

2019-12-23 03:38:44 UTC  

Like learning about corbyn is actually scary to think what would happen if he won the election

2019-12-23 03:39:20 UTC  

Ye. He mad.

2019-12-23 03:39:39 UTC  

But the election was good, made me laugh

2019-12-23 03:39:47 UTC  

Was like a comedy show

2019-12-23 03:40:42 UTC  

Was in the end.
