    I would take a No-Deal brexit any day of the week


    Very enlightening. Would you care to tell us why?

    Boris is pushing for a December 12th GE & it looks like Corbyn will agree, if the EU come back with the expected extension.

    Also, the Queen's Speech that so many remainers reckoned would not be approved? It's been approved with a 16 vote majority.

    Queens speech passes!



    Looks like the opposition is running scared of Boris!



    I bet they will all bottle a GE and vote against it. They cannot stand to face the people. It's pathetic!



    Jeremy Corbyn is the worst leader of the Labour party since Michael Foot. Let's see what excuse Labour come back with now...

    The same reason as before - no-deal needs to be off the table although I think Corbyn himself is probably up for it.

    The PM could promise that in the event of a Tory majority the deal he's agreed will be given the nod through parliament. In the even Labour win a majority then they can put another rebranded version of May's deal through parliament.

    Any other PM in living memory would be trusted with an assurance like this. Not Boris.

    Surely that's what an election is about , isn't it?


    If the country wants Boris brexit deal, they'll vote for it.


    If they want Corbyns, they'll vote for Labour


    If they want to revoke a50, they'll vote Lib Dems


    Whoever wins has the countrys approval.


    Labour is all about self preservation now, nothing more

    It's a general election not a referendum on brexit. Johnson can't be trusted not to campaign based on his deal and then stick two fingers up at the EU if he gets a decent majority.

    I don't believe even he would do that but because he's a massive liar things aren't as straightforward as they could be.

    That's not how general elections work, nor is it how they should work. You should be able to vote for the party which best represents how you think the country should be governed over the course of their term in power. A referendum should be used if you want to gauge opinion on a single issue.

    Everyone thinks that Corbyn and his useless policies are a complete disaster and I am very scared that the tories will massacre labour and win a large majority

    Corrected for you.

    And presumably a good part of that at the moment relates to who you think will manage Brexit and its aftermath in a way most closely alined to your preferences.
