Tories lose their majority. They have to call an election now. They can’t go on like this. |  |

Which the opposition parties won't vote for if the risk remains of crashing out with no deal on October 31.
That's the problem with scheming to be Prime Minister for years, you need to think about the next bit. |  |

Time for a tactical resignation from Jeremy Corbyn, to hand the Labour leadership over to someone like Hilary Benn who will then bring all those disillusioned with Labour back into the fold and lead the country to a glorious ousting of the Tories that have made us a global laughing stock and bring to an end 9 years of misery. Momentum won’t like it, but it’s for the many not the few. |  | | |

Sure but he has to think of the 30 million voters in the UK who did not vote to leave the EU. And again, it’s for the many not the few. | | | |

Who would take over from JC?
Tom Watson?
Labour seems to be a fiefdom for Momentum, McDonnell, and their puppet. Cant see any change coming. |  |

It all points to a Brexit party Govt with the snap election! |  | | |

Conservative MP, who voted remain while his constituents. voted leave, loses vote of confidence vote facing deselection jumps before he is pushed.
What a surprise. |  |

Keir Starmer maybe - seems to have managed to straddle a few different parts of the party without upsetting anyone, and is trusted by McDonnell at least. |  |

I think if you read Sarge's post (that you replied to) you will see that he suggested Hilary Benn... |  |

Think there'd be a huge push for the first female Labour leader so more likely Rebecca Long-Bailey (Corbyn's choice) or Angela Rayner/Emily Thornberry (more appealing to other sections of the party) | |

Their are far more capable female candidates on the Labour back benches than people like Rebecca Wrong Daily and Lady Nugee.
Yvette Cooper, Angela Eagle, Liz Kendall and Lisa Nandy spring to mind. [Post edited 3 Sep 2019 17:39]

Wouldn't be against it, but it should be a push for the best leader regardless of gender. | |

Yvette Cooper probably a good shout.
But then again, this is Labour, they are not good at making the right choice.
They would have been in power had they chosen David Mlliband. | |

Won't argue with your point on capability - was more thinking which candidates would be able to get support from across the party!
I think Angela Smith sitting as an independent MP probably rules her out though.. | |

That whole session looked like a remarkable piece of theatre. Lee crossing the floor as Boris was talking - you could see his gears turning trying to work out how to deal with that. Boris blatantly lying about the talks (lack of) and detailed backstop plans (also lack of). Gove's poker face was simply superb given the nonsense he was talking about. Blackford showing Corbyn how to dig the knife in. Amazing really. |  |

But he also has to bear in mind the 31.9 million voters who did not vote to stay in the EU... oh cripes what a pickle! | | | |

Is BoJo not now leading a minority government as opposed to a minority government propped up by the DUP?
If he chooses to resign anyone else is entitled to attempt to form a different coalition or minority government are they not?
The fixed term parliament act means he can't just call a general election without the support of parliament doesn't it? |  |
