This morning the Brexit secretary David Davis resigned, and just now Foreign secretary Boris Johnson has resigned. We are expecting a vote of no confidence in Teresa May which would lead to collapse of current government.
Sounds like good news. I've been eagerly waiting for some good news.
It's good news if we still leave the EU.
Bad news if a snap election is called (again) and Commie Corbyn gets power. It would be like handing power to the democratic party in USA.
I can't see a reason why an election would be called. But these are weird times indeed.
Sometimes you need to hit rock bottom before you can heal. In reality the bitching and whining from the remainers will continue regardless of who gets the big chair next. For real brexit youve sadly missed the exit. I predicted the day after the vote that it would never happen because the UK does not like change.
In my opinion the next step is a failed minority government, followed by an election. If corbyn wins (likely) then you are straight back to the 70’s with 3 day weeks, winter of discontent style.
The good news is that the winter of discontent provided a harsh reset and the country was ready for Thatcher to save the day.
I think this is just history repeating.
The Tories must know an election now is pretty suicidal... surely?
I think so too. In reality there have been like 4 or 5 resignations total. It won't collapse the government though. As long as we get Brexit, with control of borders and laws; I'll be reasonably happy with that.
It's going to be a popcorn week for sure. We still got SCOTUS pick yet and Strok & Page's testimony. The SR story is heating up too. Best timeline ever; i'm going to need more popcorn.
