All the opposition calling for Bojo to resign will not wash with him. I bet he will stay put, bet MayBot is laughing all the way.
JUST IN.. Bojo is staying put, so the call will now have to be table a motion against him, over to the opposition it's your move. Can not see much more today so we can all stand down to relax mode.

A few observations:
1: The Lib Dem decison about not calling another EU Ref: This simplifies their position in Scotland as they've always maintained that there should not be another Scottish Indyref. Saying yes to an EU referendum was undercutting their position on Scottish Independence. Swinson is Scottish, after all. 2: Todays legal ruling: Obviously a case of "the law is a horse/donkey hybrid" when it disagrees with your personal viewpoint. Tough - we are all subject to the Law, even the Prime Minister. 3: This current mess wouldn't be so bad if, following the EU Referendum result, the Conservatives had decided to make the process a cross party effort rather than a Tory only affair. You can only move forward when you build a consensus across society. If you can't, or won't, do that then your screwed. Mike.

Full broadside from a crew with a history in both Marxism and Libertarianism (according to German Wikipedia, whioch I consulted because the website was unknown to me). What a strange combo.

Trump should start some lend-lease to the Brexit side.

I think its fine the Libdems take their Forced Remain /scrap Article 50 stance,
Just as its fine for the Brexit Party to adopt the No Deal & hard Brexit stance. That kind of stance is actually quite ballsy and high risk, but it just makes it clearer for voters. If either actually won a GE with parliamentary majority on that platform, then they would have a democratic mandate to do it to too. Pretty unlikely in either case though. |

The mad house otherwise known as Parliament reopens today and I should imagine the pressure on the PM will be at an unprecedented level,
Surely the only option now is for a general election to be carried out so the people can decide on our next course of action.
