MPs have rejected the government's request for a three-day recess while the Conservatives stage their annual party conference.

They voted 306 to 289 to reject the motion asking for the Commons to adjourn until Thursday next week.

Anyone watching Question Time on tv last night may have had their attention drawn to the possibility of the PM passing an ordinance procedure (look it up) to force Brexit through.

Very crafty imho.

STEED 09-27-19 05:24 AM

Yea its on the news Psycho Dominick hinted at it, John Major spoke about it and the nameless one will act on it next week if that was what he was talking about.

Really?..I can not see that happening at all, in fact I can see the whole country going up in smoke if we crash out.

Jimbuna 09-27-19 06:22 AM

I'd be more concerned about the possibility of civil unrest.

STEED 09-27-19 06:34 AM

That was what I was getting at jim, just using the style of the press. :03:

The SNP has given its most explicit suggestion yet that it could back a time-limited government led by Jeremy Corbyn to prevent a no-deal Brexit.

Party leader Nicola Sturgeon said she "agreed" installing the Labour leader or "someone else" after a vote of no confidence in Boris Johnson was the only" failsafe" option. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-49850484
Nothing like stirring the pot eh Nicola?

So what is the PM to do next?

I hear instead he might call again for a general election, framing it as a way to finally put an end to this zombie parliament and break the deadlock. MPs will refuse, saying they will do no such thing until Mr Johnson agrees to a Brexit extension. He knows such a concession would amount to political suicide in an election where Nigel Farage's Brexit Party is breathing down his neck. He won't do it. We grind on.

She would only do that if she can grab him by the balls and demand this and that.

Both side's key interests soberly and fairly reminded of. The EU however is completely refusing a British right for this own key interest. It wants it all, a submissive and obedient vasall.

Good to hear that some sane, reasonable minds are still out there, even if they cannot do anything. If a pro-EU and German economists admits in a newspaper that the Backstop deal would be a bad deal for the UK, it really is a confession of what #### Theresa May wanted to force down the Brits' throat.

Trump will demand the UK to make many concessions and payments if it wants to get a special deal with the US after a Brexit. Trump is no friend of the UK, let nobody wrongly assume that for even one minute. Trump is friend only to himself. He will exploit the British dependency to the max.

Universal credit: Labour pledges to scrap welfare scheme

Oh really way to go just throw billions of pounds down the drain typical labour thinking, wast more money scrapping it .

Jimbuna 09-28-19 05:34 AM

Rumour has it there could be a no-confidence vote early next week but first, the opposition need to pick an interim PM and the Lib Dems appear to be the stumbling block because they aren't supportive of Steptoe taking overall control.

The above also largely depends on the Tory rebels supporting the vote.
