Farage and his Brexit Party will be interesting to watch, they'll face far greater scrutiny at a GE than they did at the Euro Elections.

Wonder if they choose to stand in all seats or maybe they stand aside in pro-Leave Tory seats and go after pro-Leave Labour seats?

Hope that fanny stands and fails to get elected AGAIN

Anyone with any sense must see the only compromise is a soft brexit

No deal is just madness

Revoking causing more division

In saying that I just think its all a massive mess which is probably going to cause the biggest shake up in politics in my generation

They’ve agreed a non aggression pact with the tories.

I don't think there is a majority in favour of Brexit any more.

The problem is, it is far easier to see Farage and BoJo striking a deal and standing together whereas it is much harder to see the Remainers standing together - not unreasonable either, as Corbyn is a divisive figure for many.

I can only see BoJo winning with a substantial majority and having a strong mandate to do whatever he wants - that will be a no deal, hard Brexit and all manner of insufferable nonsense after that.

Can Corbyn win?

He would need to come out for a 2nd ref, he would need non aggression pact with the Lib Dem’s, Plaid and SNP and then he would need a coalition with them and even then it would be close.

:agree: I think there was some complacency among Remainers, in that they didn't expect to lose.

Much like David Cameron :wink:

Would McLuskey and Milne let him? Would anyone believe him if he did. He’s leave and always has been.

I agree but it’s not going to happen imo. No deal will happen, it’s just a matter of when. The only thing that will stop it is the tories not getting a majority in a general election.

There won't be a middle ground unfortunately.

Remaining with our current deal or No deal are the choices.

Either way, any ills that befall the UK in either scenario will be blamed on the EU

The 21 Tory rebels standing as independents could also be a problem for the Tories. Would split Tory vote in those areas.

Dunno like - Labour came fairly close last snap GE after forecasting a huge majority for the tories

If Scotland vote as expected SNP will gain 11 or so seats from the tories

Definately would need a pact with SNP plaid etc (hello indy ref 2)

Yip. Middle ground has now gone. It’s winner takes all.

Nonsense. A Corbyn government is infinitely preferable, IMO. Our society has been destroyed since 2010; there is no dilemma here. We need an alternative to the neoliberal race to the bottom. End moneyism and let's test whether humanism can provide a better path, as the Attlee government did in 1945. It can't do any worse but may do so much better.

I hope you’re right, but labours credibility has taken a bit of a battering since then.

With 21 less Tory mp’s then we could have a new govt by tomorrow if mp’s wanted it.

Not Corbyn, popular alternatives seem to be Ken Clarke or Yvette Cooper, Jo Swinson probably thinks she's in with a shot, but she'll find herself being ignored by everyone else.

I see that the self serving scrote David no deal would be a disaster for Scotland Mundell voted against.

Every Scottish Tory.

All 21 rebels have been informed they are out apparently

Ledsom seemed to suggest there was a way back for them in tomorrow's vote

This includes Winston Churchills grandson

That spineless loser would never do anything that might threaten his career, a complete disgrace of a man.

It was crass and stupid, but her comment wasn't particularly endearing either.
