Wouldn't any government that gets elected on October 15th be able to overturn the legislation to extend the exit date?

Unless the opposition is thinking that Boris Johnson is going to say Oct 15th to get the vote for the election, then change the date to after Oct 31st, which would be extraordinary.

Yes James
that's why Labour will not agree a Snap Election
until they have stopped any chance of over turning.

I wouldn't put it past Boris though, he's lost all his votes so far and by proroguing the government, he's shown that he's willing to play dirty.

I also don't think there would be enough time for a new government form and try to prevent a no deal brexit, This whole election play on Boris' part seems like a distraction, one that the other parties should only indulge him in if he agrees to a delay on the exit date.

It's a cynical game to crash out of europe when no one is looking

Bring on the election. "Drain the swamp" It's long overdue.

Let's put some people in Parliament that serve us and do as we tell them to do, and get rid of the majority of them that ignore what we tell them and serve only their EU masters.

It's the Political establishment vs The People. Choose your side wisely.

Boris Johnson is losing control. That's because he approached things wrong. He should have let Parliament have their say After all, we live in a democracy.
By shutting it down it almost feels like a dictatorship.

The MPs already threw 'domocracy' out the door Vanessa when they didn't honour the peoples democratic vote .

The difference is though Kazanne is that Parliament doesn't have to listen to an advisory polling, especially with the fact that it was a very slim majority, and there actually was no option on there for a No Deal Brexit which I'm assuming that most of this country doesn't even want.

Where as Boris shutting down Parliament is no different from some of Putin's stuff in terms of being a dictator.

That's unfortunately valid in your post.

This PM is acting like a bully boy whose gone even more power mad than he was before in my view Mock.

If this was any Labour leader acting this way.
The media, and rabid Con supporters would actually be right to be denouncing him or her as dangerous to true democracy

Just as this Con PM is doing but because he's a Con, it's fine for him to act in this blackmailing, threatening and bullying fashion.

Im all for honouring what people want. But no deal would be a disaster for everyone. I think maybe a delay is best, so we could leave with a good deal.

Nigel is a coming!

A pact between his Brexit party and Johnson's Conservatives to clean up at the General Election?

Do you want Corbynism or not? Make your choice.

Nigel is on the BBC in 15 minutes 8.30am

Same in Hong Kong, their desire for independence is bringing chaos, I hope ours doesn't get that bad, but it's getting to the brink and something may just burst soon.

one difference, britain didn't have to go for a brexit but the chaos is what elitist morons Farage, Gove, Johnson, JRM brought upon you all


if anything for justice now in britain, is that you guys get a left wing people's party in power now, to restore the calmth for the middle class and poor british people

You might describe Boris as a 'clown' or use it as you feel it makes your opinion more valid,but it doesn't , as most of us know he is NOT a clown,he is a clever guy,he may come across as a 'clown' but that in itself is a clever move,just because the opposition keep blocking Brexit,does not make the other party stupid or 'clowns' but saying that I'de rather be called a 'clown' than a coward which is what Corbyn seems to be

Dont lie Kazanne. The brexit ultras blocked brexit time and time again by not supporting May's deal.

Did you know johnson was sacked twice for lying? And he is lying again about non existent negotiations. He is a lying clown

May's deal wasn't Brexit, it kept us tied to the EU, that's why it was rejected. May was a remainer before the referendum, she was a remainer during her Premiership and she's a remainer now.

Farage says he's willing to come together to make a pact with Johnson to target seats, if Johnson wants to go for a clean break Brexit. Farage says he has 630 candidates ready to go.

Yes he has been saying that for some time.
But so far PM Johnson has not spoken to Farage.
So unless he does
its up in the air
