Tory Leadership Battle

[McAz]

Corbyn said this only 2 weeks ago:

"The Labour leader, Jeremy Corbyn, says a second referendum on Brexit is 'not an option for today' but could be in the future."

"...but could be in the future", Mungle - and the future begins now.

Cannydc seems to think that if Labour get to government in the next few weeks that a 2nd referendum is a certainty

I believe Canny is a Labour Party activist, Bungle - he's in a better position to know than me.

The ERG will be furious that the vote is happening today. Well and truly shafted May also handing the whip back to a couple of MPs. Francis Urquhart would be proud.

Cannydc said no such thing.

Cannydc said that Treeza will win, the rest is a wish list, only possible if she loses.

Cannydc says if you want to know what he says, read his posts properly.

And I'm not sure how many times you need to be told - Corbyn HAS NOT ruled out a second referendum. It is part of party policy as an option, decided at conference, which Corbyn will abide by.

[Cobs]

Major concession. She will not fight 2022 election.

[Cannydc]

Major concession. She will not fight 2022 election.

She knows she is toast, post-Brexit, anyway.

I can't remember a PM who is so deluded as she. Half the Tory MPs hate her deal. Half the Tory electorate want rid. Yet she hangs around, like a bad smell.

[Cannydc]

A quick guess

For May - 250
Against May - around 65

There may be a few abstentions.

She's given the whip back to two MPs who were suspended pending investigations into sexual assault allegations. Nasty desperate stuff.

Having seen them wheel MPs with terminal cancer through the lobbies, I put nothing beyond them.

I suspect she will push through the Brexit Vote on a 'this or no deal' basis and then resign

[Stooo]

We will get a Labour government, and there will be a second referendum.

Corbyn has already ruled out a 2nd referendum.

He'll do what he's told by the party.

Labour delegates vote overwhelmingly for Brexit motion backing second referendum as option

[Stooo]

If it hasn't killed her by then.

[Fletch]

What's the point in this then?

Bit late in the day to go changing leaders if it's all about brexit.

Bit pointless if she's got the support to win.

Bit pointless considering the lack of candidates suitable for the job in the Tory party.

Maybe it's a bit of sadomasochism the Tories are famed for and seem to enjoy so much. Anyone got an orange...

I doubt Corbyn will either
He'll be much too old by then.

Premature electioneering - Rees-Mogg and his gang came too soon.
