Today Parliament is in stalemate. The government lost the vote to take no-deal off the table. As a result of losing that vote and the loss of a number of MPs due to them having the whip withdrawn, the government now wants to trigger a general election to settle the deadlock.
But labour will not agree and are going to vote against having a general election... the election they have been dreaming of since Theresa May's disastrous election. It's amazing how spineless the labour leadership is at the moment. No conviction at all. Give them the opportunity they want and they run away from it. That's no leadership at all.
So we are at stalemate. There is deadlock. The government cannot proceed without a majority and the MPs are refusing to accept a general election.
So all Boris Johnson has to do is keep returning and asking for a general election and the MPs can keep saying no... until the 1st of November, then we are out of the EU with no deal.
Works for me...
The ball is in your court Jeremy Corbyn....
I do like Boris' tactics. The focus is entirely on those MPs who are trying to hamstring the Government. The public know who exactly is to blame for the lack of progress on Brexit. Given an election, the people know who exactly who not to vote for...
In other news, a court in Scotland has confirmed the Proroguing of Parliament for the Queen's speech is entirely legal. Entirely predictable.
