Westministenders: The Only Election That Matters - The Tory One

Fallout from the Euro Elections makes for interesting reading for the leadership hopefuls.

Its not a clear cut as some make out. There is still a case for a deal. The trouble is passing it through parliament. And there is no time to do that. Nor no will.

Any new leader's priority isn't going to be a deal. Its going to be avoiding a General Election. And thats going to be hard.

We are also realistically facing the prospect of another extension which France is likely to block leading to no deal or no deal.

Or a 2nd Referendum.

A 2nd Referendum might be the only way to avoid a General Election. And that will still have no deal on the ballot. Of that you can be sure.

Peter Foster of the Telegraph remarked this morning that in fact the only way to a deal now, might well be via no deal, because of all the routes we have exhausted through incompetence. And that will come at a very high price.

DG How would they prevent No Deal ?
Another NC vote and another GE ?

You are assuming the EU will unanimously agree to keep doling out extensions, while the British political class keep moving the deckchairs

A50 is a sudden death play-off
Any PM playing for time, any HoC miscalculation ..... and we're out with No Deal

BigChocFrenzy · 01/06/2019 18:23

Yep, pretty:
To stop No Deal, some Tories will have to vote NC with Labour
Otherwise, we're relying on the PM to stop No Deal

From the IoG website, the article about parliament having to be ready to jump onto important legislation as soon as a decision is made doesn't sound encouraging as it says that there will need to be cross party cooperation.

Congrats to Sam Gymah, Number 13, unlucky for some.

We Have A Rugby Team!

Not quite yet a rugby team (or at least, not rugby union Wink): although 13 is the maximum number that U13s can play with (in Scotland, not sure about the Age Grade Law Variations elsewhere). Probably about the right level of maturity though Grin

MockerstheFeManist · 02/06/2019 18:07

It's a rugby league team.

One more and they can have a 7's match.

LouiseCollins28 · 03/06/2019 17:01

LOL now who plays in which position Grin

MockerstheFeManist · 04/06/2019 08:59

There's a few candidates for the right-wing, but if you think I'm going to do a hooker joke about Liz Truss.......

Sostenueto · 04/06/2019 19:04

Knew ChangeUK would not last long! Soubry and Chukka not a good match.

Saw a brilliant placard from protestors......' My cat can poop a better President! Grin

Hands off our NHS Trump!
