    Bring it on. People need to see what worse looks like before things can get better with the inevitable GE.

    SNP and Labour planning to topple govt. and put Corbyn as PM

    Disaster for many, not the few.

    First I don't think there are the numbers needed for that to happen and second it's not that easy.

    Just because something it’s easy doesn’t mean it can’t happen if there is enough determination.
    I agree Lib Dem’s would have to join,
    I’d like them to join under strict agreement of what caretaker government does.
    We know what jo swinson has said, but again not impossible to see compromise if there is enough determination and it’s the only way.

    I’m not a corbyn fan but if there’s agreement and strict criteria I don’t think it matters much who’s in charge.

    I'm pretty sure the government have found an issue with the surrender act and would be able to get the courts to rule it unlawful (the irony). The recent supreme court ruling actually makes the case much stronger that it was before. The strategy might fall apart if they aren't the government at the time.

    I think we need a peoples vote on the name of the bill.
    I would vote for don’t jump off a cliff bill
    Or even better

    There will be no Brexit dividend for Britain.

    The negative name tends to stick and is what people remember, I didn't really have issue with capitation but even I had to look up poll tax to remember the proper name for it.

    There are predictions property prices will rise and there are predictions they will fall.
  • How long do do many of you think the EU will give us an extension this time for after the 31st October?
    I have a sneaky suspicion that we will get an indefinite one this time
