That's a bit harsh on Corbyn.

Childish and baseless.

 

Any examples of Corbyn being short-sighted, narrow-minded and egocentric? Or are you just hoping that "I know you are, but what am I" is an appropriate level of discourse?

Do I need to explain? It was clearly a joke, made possible by the phrasing of your post and your position on Corbyn, which even follows a countless time used joke structure on this forum.

A GE doesn't prevent No Deal. Jesus, Labour are fucking dumb. This stance will allow BoJo to run down the clock. I can't see who in Parliament would back a Corbyn-led government, without an election, either.

Fair enough.  I'm just in a shitty mood whenever I think of this.

Yeah I don't like the look of that either. The best solution could be giving the PM position to an MP that's not Tory or Labour, and with the agreement (that's also voted on) that the entire thing disbands after no deal is averted. Then they can get back to arguing and wondering who's actually going to run the country with an election. If Labour pass that up because they simply don't want to enter any unity government for the sake of it, then I can't see how it's not going to damage them.

 

I want Corbyn to pull off what seems impossible and become PM, but this could piss a lot of people off and I don't like it. Fair enough that they don't want a Tory leading it but I think they should be more open to another party's MP doing it and temporarily.

The Guardian says this :

 

Quote

Experts have cautioned that the prime minister would still remain in control of the timetable even if the government lost a confidence vote. Catherine Haddon, a senior fellow at the Institute for Government thinktank, told the Times that nothing in the Fixed-term Parliaments Act required a prime minister to resign on losing a vote of no confidence.

“In terms of a strict reading of the legislation, Boris is not required to resign. It is completely silent on all of this,” she said. “The onus is on the incumbent prime minister – they get to choose whether they resign. If they do not it is hard for a new government to be formed without dragging the Queen into politics.”

 

 

So looks like we could be leaving with no deal and with no way of avoiding it apart from if the Queen says he should leave? Then what? Boris and the right wingers vs the Royals? So if a PM ever goes full on insane they can't even vote him or her out, this country just continually gets better doesn't it.

Since sterling is close to parity with the Euro, it could be a good time to join the single currency

I find that bizarre and genuinely confused at her for the first time I think, I suppose if she's after trolling right wing cavemen she's at least going the right way about it.  It can't be that hard though for some MP's to get in touch with enough members of parliament to at least work out for certainty if they have a majority agreed with blocking it.

 

If they do the next bit I'd have thought would've been arguing about who takes temporary lead if the government goes down. But even this isn't clear now after reading that if a vote of no confidence passes the PM doesn't even have to step down.

 

Sounds great that. Maybe Boris could just sit around on the couch at number 10 watching tv, films, and playing games until Halloween arrives, then go out dressed up as Dracula to celebrate no deal.

 

Why the cunts have to pick my fave day of the year for their shit brexit date I have no idea.

[Red Phoenix]

Look at the fucking state of these recesses. Several of them are simply named after the months they're taken in with no idea as to why they have them from reading. Maybe someone should propose that they have a break in June for E3 as well. If the plebs had this many breaks in a year from work the elites would be bouncing off the upper atmosphere with rage. https://www.parliament.uk/about/faqs/house-of-commons-faqs/business-faq-page/recess-dates/

If the plebs could set their own breaks they would have that many too.

Yep, would be great, would be good if some of the clown MP's would try helping with this too. Set a few holidays in the year for all workers and tell the corporation owners to fuck off if they have a problem with it, or to draw a bit of cash out of one of their havens if it makes them short.

Where the hell did this government of national unity idea come from? Couldn’t possibly be playing into the hands of the far right any more, with bollocks like that

The later you leave it to buy, the more it'll cost you.

You do understand that just because they're not at Parliament, it doesn't mean they're not doing anything, yes?

I knew the conference one was clearly not time off, but wasn't thinking so much of the others. And seeing as I don't know am gonna assume they're just lounging around. The only way I'll be convinced is if you account for every MP doing something during every break in the last year. I want lists, charts, articles, etc.

I asked Amelia Womack (green) on twitter if she'd thought of proposing another recess for E3 expos but no response. She's probably out raving it up somewhere with Lucas.

Nah, she’s probably pegged you for a nutter.
