PMs change and lol we're all gonna die (but brexit will never end)

Confirmed: 10 independents have the whip back. Burt, Nokes, Clark, Soames, Vaizey, James, Stephen Hammond, Brine, Harrington, Benyon.

Of those I think Burt, Soames, Harrington and Benyon are standing down anyway

Conservative MP Andrew Percy says that if MPs amend the bill so the election takes place on a Tuesday rather than a Thursday then voters will be “confused."

Thee actual fuck.. You're a tory who according to other tories isn't a good tory, so you get un-toried, but the other tories suddenly need you again (a very tory thing to happen) and you, a tory that got whooped from the whip, accept to be a tory amongst the other tories again?

Class solidarity is a helluva drug

That must be it. You're ostracized yet jump right back in when they need you.

For all the bogus talk of wets, one nationist and soft tories - they are all just basic scum.

lower than vermin

The home of conservatism isn’t happy

Mine is one of the 10 rebels readmitted so that has cost the Tories my vote. It’s the old boys network at work. A party that behaves like that isn’t worth supporting. I rejoined the party when Boris became leader but I won’t be renewing my membership.

Dear God why? Now more than ever the Conservatives need the courage of their convictions. Brexit is not over, a bodged negotiation of the FTA will still queer the entire pitch. No Deal must still be an option up to end of 2020, or we will get shafted in the next stage of negotiations. These ten are proven to be untrustworthy, who will defy a three line whip to help the EU cause.
Stupid, stupid stupid.

lol

at the amendment crashing but lol everything really

The long good Friday (nightmare?) before Christmas

BXP and farage eerily quiet lately

Richard Tice has been going on about standing against Boris

when they find out where Boris is standing

Another *massive* win for git-things-done BoJo!

wonder how long it will take for the BBC to frame this in any terms other than Brexit

The Tories will win #generalelection2019. If I'm wrong, I'll freeze my spunk into a spike and use it to puncture my eyes.

The UK Parliament has voted in favour of a general election on the 12th of December. The vote passed by 438 to 20.

— GBC News (@GBCNewsroom) October 29, 2019

so do 16-17yr/olds get to vote or nah?

We should probably poll the possible outcomes, but it feels rather inevitable that not a lot of posts will be moved and things will be largely more or less the same? Tories biggest, Labour trailing, LibDems gaining an inflated, ghostly sense of self-importants, and racists gonna racist.

xp nope

Nah, the amendment wasn’t chosen because: scope.

A small number, but proud

Some of us voting against General Election - we believe it cannot resolve #Brexit & we refuse to hand PM election he craves

If you want specific answer on Brexit, you have to ask a specific question

That’s why the only way forward is #PeoplesVote pic.twitter.com/OJ2KwJVL9x

pathetic

We believe our jobs are fucked

First Jebediah Cromwell statement:

The Labour leader, Jeremy Corbyn, has said:

This election is a once-in-a-generation chance to transform our country and take on the vested interests holding people back.

The choice at this election could not be clearer: A Labour government will be on your side; while Boris Johnson’s Conservatives, who think they’re born to rule, will only look after the privileged few.

We will now launch the most ambitious and radical campaign for real change that our country has ever seen. This is our chance to build a country for the many not the few and fit for the next generation.

Responding to the vote in parliament for a general election, the Lib Dem leader, Jo Swinson, has said:

"This general election will decide the future of our country for generations. It is our best chance to elect a government to stop Brexit.
The Liberal Democrats are the strongest party of Remain and will be standing on a manifesto to stop Brexit by revoking article 50.
This country deserves better than Boris Johnson and Jeremy Corbyn and I am excited to take our positive, pro-European, liberal vision to the country as the Liberal Democrat candidate for prime minister."

I dunno if maybe Labour shouldn't go in as hard on these stealth Tories as they do the actual Tories. "Save this country from the likes of Swinson" and so on. I mean the gloves are already off, if indeed they were ever on.

Over 100 Labour MPs abstained

certainly a series of reminders to melts along the lines of "vote Lib Dem = get Brexit" would be in order

woke sobes is cancelled

some surprising names there. fuck ian murray

lammy voted against

Lammy wants a 2nd ref before a GE

three-line whip has a whole different meaning if you are a CuK

This is fucking hilarious

Quick word for the parliament that is about to end: It has been a very good parliament, historically good. In fraught circumstances, under fierce populist attack, it held the government to account and prevented some catastrophic outcomes.

For political and personal reasons, I have written tonight to @jeremycorbyn informing him of my decision not to stand at the coming General Election. It has been a great honour and a privilege to serve the people of the Pontypridd Constituency. pic.twitter.com/mIxz8spZte

he is such a bootlicking cretin

And just like that, Owen Smith...
...melts away!

John Curtice, a politics professor at Strathclyde University, said that if Johnson maintains his 10-point lead in the polls through until Election Day — and that’s a big if — “that should be enough to deliver an overall majority, not necessarily an overwhelming one, but probably enough for him to be able to do what he wants to do on Brexit.”

how is this hapless choad currently up by 10 fucking points

We just flew back from Vienna, on our 24th anniversary. Thought I'd post that on this thread..

just as the ISIS top job becomes available. suspicious

Interesting: John Curtice predicts no overall majority, with the Tories getting kicked out of government and Labour making a pact with the SNP and Lib Dems https://t.co/20cVeQyVDA
