This. No deal isn’t in their interests and as painful as Brexit is for them, they’re going to allow the UK to make the choice to no deal, not force it on us.

Imho it’ll cost the Tories a lot more seats than Labour, but would largely benefit the LibDems.

Plus their tide would fall slightly, imho. UKIP polled at 25% at one point, and at 17/18% in April 2015.

BXP get 18% of the vote, win maybe 15 seats.

Tories lose 30 to LD, 15 to Labour, and all of their seats in Scotland (13).

Literally no fucking clue what happens to the 21 “rebels”, as they could all go any which fucking way, but Tories are on about 200 by my tally.

Labour lose 10 to the LibDems, are up 15 on the Tories, and lose a few in Scotland. “Win” the seats back from the LibDems in Streatham and Liverpool Wavertree. Up 5 overall + who knows what for places like Broxtowe and Wantage (reckon this could flip if Vaizey runs against the Tories, though he won’t, as he’s a pot plant). 300

SNP will get 51

LDs will have fun and get about 50 or so, I reckon.

NI = 18

4 for PC.

Greens 1

Absolute Boy minority coalition. Easy.

This will :100: not happen.

Confident the LDs will get nowhere near 50.

Aren’t quite a few of the Tories that lost the whip stepping down anyway. Those seats could be all to play for if the voters liked those mp’s. Along with Johnson’s seat majority being a bit shaky could be possible for Labour to snatch it with some shenanigans.

Uxbridge is definitely in play. Chingford, too. Would be pretty great to get rid of two Tory leaders in one go.

I’m not sure what Vaizey is doing. Grieve is definitely standing again, and isn’t likely to get the whil back any time soon.

Would imagine that Philip Hammond would stand down, though at the moment who knows?

There are about 30 seats (including the likes of Gyimah etc) where I wouldn’t even hazard a guess.

I’ve mentioned this before, my mum gets my proxy vote. She gets to vote against that stupid fuck Chris Leslie TWICE! Go mum!

Oddly excited. Almost certainly misplaced excitement, but excited none the less.

So this election request will get through, right? Based on the fact that an Oct 31st No Deal is basically impossible?

I just wonder if somewhere like Mid Sussex will go against the Tories. Removing the whip from Winston Churchill’s grandson you would have thought would be beyond the pale for some of them (avin said that the polling with some Tory members during the leadership elections they’d do anything to get Brexit).

The other thing is I wonder if the opposition parties will hold off voting for an election until after October 31st?

Still think there’s a large chance of a Corbyn SNP coalition and as delighted as I’ll be to get the scum out, Europe won’t go away. Ref 2 on a soft brexit deal v remaining, that’ll go down well.

Was talk somewhere of Johnson being given one of the sacked Tory’s safe seats.

People getting excited about a general election that the Tories will win.
