Brexit: Bill designed to stop no-deal 'will clear Lords'
The bill will clear the Lords on Friday meaning Boris can call another GE vote. This new thread is jumping the gun a tad but I think it's a given there will be one now.
So will Johnson be the shortest serving PM for nigh on two centuries? Or will there be a no deal Brexit if he gets in with a majority? Tuesday's purge means there are no naysayers in his own party to stop winning a vote against repealing this no deal law, should he win a majority. Or fuck forbid, the Brexit Party get enough seats to form a coalition with him. I've a horrible feeling the latter will happen, throwing in the DUP. Labour won't get a majority. The only glimmer I can see that means no Tories anywhere near Downing Street is a Lab/Lib/other Remain/No "no deal" parties coalition. If that happens they better get 3 more MPs than needed, because Hoey and Mann are effectively Brexit Party.
To sum my prediction up, the Tories might but probably won't get a majority, Labour won't get a majority. Brexit Party won't do as well as in the May Euros but may get enough seats to make a difference. Lib Dems will do well, how well may be critical to Brexit. I how they do will be key, with my prediction of neither Con/Lab gaining a majority.
