The Torys would be crazy to go for a GE at this point, if they want to keep their jobs it's Mays deal or a peoples vote

"They don't need to they will do it all by themselves, "No pacts, No Deals" to quote Neil Kinnock"

Labour will do it on their own, so they keep telling us.



Working with other parties?



NEVER

Never

NEVER!!!!!



Now where else have we heard that one...
The Tories tore up the rule book by entering into an agreement with the DUP though. The main argument was always that the Scottish / Irish / Welsh parties shouldn't prop up a party in Westminster but . That Pandora's box was opened in 2017.

Sure Crazy
but all those Indie MP's
11 of them could get washed away.

And in Scotland could SNP expand?
Those Conservatives that got in (2017 General Election)
up there, as those voters were fed up with the SNP
but HATED Scottish Labour
so went Conservative.

There may be a GE if this Common Market 2.0 option gets passed as the most desirable option in Parliament.That is being touted as popular atm.May would not accept it as PM.

It would not be leaving.
We would still be in the Single Market,Have to accept freedom of movement,still have to pay in,still have to follow EU regulation and all without having a say.
We’d also have to be in a customs union because of the Irish border issue.No trade deals.

Honestly we’re better off remaining than that.

If we’re going to Brexit then i’d say Theresa May’s deal is the minimum we can accept that means we actually leave.

I have just added it.

More Data:


What do these motions mean?

[Motion C, brought by Ken Clarke (Conservative): Customs Union This would mean a softer Brexit, with the withdrawal agreement including a customs union with the EU.

Motion D, brought by Nick Boles (Conservative): Common Market 2.0
This puts forward a Norway-style relationship with the EU, which would mean rejoining the European Free Trade Association
and European Economic Area. The UK would stay in the single market and freedom of movement would continue.

Motion E, brought by Peter Kyle (Labour), is a Confirmatory public vote. This would mean any deal must be
put to the people in a confirmatory second referendum - often called a people's vote.

Motion G, brought by Joanna Cherry (SNP), is Parliamentary Supremacy. This asks the government to seek a further extension
if a deal isn't agreed two days before #Brexit. If the EU doesn't accept, MPs will vote between a no-deal Brexit or revoking Article 50.]
