Well yes, Number 10 is a kind of euthanasia chamber for PMs right now. Johnson's best bet is go more authoritarian or go home. What a shame (for him, not for us) that the last elected leader who did that is so headline news today.0 -

if the liar doesn't like it he should resign, the country never voted for him, he has no mandate from the country, he was made pm by the tory party, which itself has had no mandate since losing it's majority at the previous ge
if he wanted a ge he should've called it the day he became pm, not now try using it as a ploy to get his dishonest waymy bike - faster than god's and twice as shiny0 -

They'd win the City. Always do. Even with Mark Fields. I'd imagine there are some others too.
Considerable boost for Labour as Lib Dems have parachuted Chuka Umunna in.0 -

I have no idea what the Lib Dems are thinking, but they will need a 14,000 vote swing. My suspicion is that he will reduce Lib Dem votes (4,000), and those will go to Labour. Labour only needs a 3,000 vote swing and have been very active locally. Since its creation in 1950 it has always been Tory.0 -

Before or after they've announced their intention to ban City bonuses?!0 -
Election on 15th, results overnight into 16th, Brussels summit 17th. Sounds like a great idea.0

They should really broker an agreement to step aside in places like that if there is an election this autumn, not put a high profile candidate in.0 -

It's more than one island
The British Isles are more than one island. Of which 'Great' Britain (ie the largest island in the group) is...well...it's the largest island. The key word being 'island'...0 -

They're looking at the last European elections where the LibDems came top.

Can we agree it doesn't matter and someone only raised an objection to cause an argument like this?

...really?
In between the breakfasts, the 3 course lunches & dinners, and the endless, endless hard booze?Despite all this activity Churchill’s daily routine changed little during these years. He awoke about 7:30 a.m. and remained in bed for a substantial breakfast and reading of mail and all the national newspapers. For the next couple of hours, still in bed, he worked, dictating to his secretaries.
At 11:00 a.m., he arose, bathed, and perhaps took a walk around the garden, and took a weak whisky and soda to his study.
At 1:00 p.m. he joined guests and family for a three-course lunch. Clementine drank claret, Winston champagne, preferable Pol Roger served at a specific temperature, port brandy and cigars. When lunch ended, about 3:30 p.m. he returned to his study to work, or supervised work on his estate, or played cards or backgammon with Clementine.
At 5:00 p.m., after another weak whisky and soda, he went to be for an hour and a half. He said this siesta, a habit gained in Cuba, allowed him to work 1 1/2 days in every 24 hours. At 6:30 p.m. he awoke, bathed again, and dressed for dinner at 8:00 p.m.
Dinner was the focal-point and highlight of Churchill’s day. Table talk, dominated by Churchill, was as important as the meal. Sometimes, depending on the company, drinks and cigars extended the event well past midnight. The guests retired, Churchill returned to his study for another hour or so of work.
Basically he's does 3-4 hrs work before he gets rat-arsed.
Strong effort not getting out of bed till 11 at which point he hits the whiskey.0 -

We can certainly agree that. But I wasn't the one claiming Great Britain is not an island.0 -
Today's Con job boxxox. Give us money...
The Conservative Party
Dear redacted
Four days ago Corbyn demanded an election. Two days ago, Corbyn told his MPs to block it.
So the man who has called for an election more than 30 times since 2017, is now stopping the people from having it.
Corbyn is trying to tie our hands and delay Brexit. So don’t let him. Chip in today and help us win the election – whenever it comes.
Donate £20
Donate £50
Donate £100
Donate £200
The truth is I don’t want an election. I want to get on with the job – leaving the EU by October 31st and investing in the country’s priorities. Like hospitals, police and schools.
But Labour MPs have left us no choice. They just passed a law that would force me to beg Brussels for an extension to the Brexit deadline.
This is something I will never do.
This would cause more delay and more chaos. And that means our economy would suffer and our priorities would be ignored. I won’t accept Labour’s delay.
That’s why I’m calling for an election. And as a member, your help is needed now more than ever. So will you chip in?
We’ll deliver Brexit by October 31st. No ifs, no buts.
Then we’ll get on with making it work. That means investing in the priorities we all share – like hospitals, police and schools.
And the support of members like you will make all of it possible.
Labour’s delay would leave us in limbo. So if you want to deliver Brexit by October 31st, then please chip in today.

Yours sincerely,
