It looks like a political mix to stop future wrangling ? makes me think there will be no snap election.

If there is to be a + side to all of this, it will possibly be that our fledgling generation will truly, madly and deeply understand our deep-rooted hatred for MT, through their own for TM.

Backwards is the new forwards.

20th October it is
I really don't think that either of you quite understand what the fixed term Parliament act actually did. It is one of the things that Cameron, for all his wankerishness, did actually do. To no discernible feckin' end, mind, but that's Cameron's legacy summed up really innit?

In keeping with his entire uselessness it didn't actually do anything of any kind of purpose whatsoever. But what it did do is make the ^above argument somewhat redundant.

May, and her 'team', will be there until 2020 - for her not to be would require a turn of events that, whilst admittedly not beyond the bounds of imaginings in this whole 'World Turned Upside Down' kind of freakshow that we have found ourselves wandering in, zombie-like, for the past few weeks, won't actually happen.

A Government can no longer just 'call' an election, there is now a process that must be processed before such an act can be undertaken. Critically it would require an enormous amount of agreement within Parliament for this process to proceed.

It may not have escaped your attention that there is, currently, very little agreement within the Parliament on pretty much anything at all.

George Osborne - Borrowed more than every Labour government in history - put together.

Spent it quietly on his chums - has the best private pension in the country

Perhaps you could email Corbin and let him know the above as he is endlessly prattling on about calling a snap election (like there's any possibility his party is currently in a state to fight one at the moment never mind win it).

You never know, he might read it out at the next PMQs.

wanna see my snake?
^^ my thoughts exactly ^^

although i have to admit having been a labour supporter for years ,im now a paid up member of the labour party just in the outside chance i get a vote to remove corbyn :(

When did you join? If this year you may not be allowed to vote. As for removing Corbyn, is it because you believe eagle has better policies or you just don't think he's electable?

joined earlier this year , and yes recently found i cant vote anyway :strange:

Corbyn 20 or so years ago would have been electable , in the current climate .. no , not a chance mate.

As for Eagle , not sure , but shes the only one ive seen thats had the balls to stand against him.
...ofc , the others will come out now , but they all waited for her to put her head on the block.
