Labour won’t support until the motion tonight is law.
Corbyn always bites, like all protest politicians. He had a chance to show himself a statesman for government but he missed it.
I'm hoping both. Remain or leave referendum first and then to promise if leave wins they'll negotiate a Labour brexit (and maybe put it against Mays).
The Tories have wanted to do this whole 'Labour wants to cancel brexit' for years but it's not stuck. If they can Labour should try and avoid it sticking now.
Indeed. Do you think the government is just going to allow this to become law, then?
Bercow is the Parliaments Messi!
So he's going through with it. Ken Clarke as well?
Well I think they always planned for an election but were going to shift the date. They will look to delay but they are backed in a corner now and an election after the shitshow which is Brexit will hurt them more.
Despite Leadsom saying a half-hour ago that they would 'get a second chance'. Chaos reigns.
Clarke just referred to May as 'Theresa Mao' on Newsnight.
Must we have politicians who are too old to be able to stop themselves from accidentally spouting their in jokes?

Also what if there is a GE and it just comes back as a hung Parliament again
Oh look, Leave.EU at its finest
I understand you but the players have been ready for several months and they still run the play.
There was opposition but Johnson’s core group are still solid.
An election before Brexit keeps Brexit in play and raises Johnson’s profile as a leavers champion alongside Farage.
It’s going to get very dirty.
Think they have to go through with it
1. They would look further weakened if they didn't
2. Gives them the opportunity to put up candidates who would agree to no deal in the inevitable election to come
I'm expecting quite the speech from Ken Clarke tomorrow from the opposition benches during the debates ...
Well that makes Leadsom look like an idiot, as she was saying just a short while ago they would have a second chance tomorrow.
What a day.
Got the rest of the week yet !
Never thought I'd see the day where the Tories were taken over by Stalinists.
Would it matter to them if they did?
They would presumably still go in to the election on a "leave on October 31st, however we have to do it" platform. If they got re-elected on that basis then they presumably have the mandate (and numbers) to overturn the law stopping them from doing so?
Oh god Burgon is on.
Removing the whip from Ken Clarke? Fecking joke of a decision. I hope he decides to change his mind and stand again in the upcoming election just to stick two fingers up at these jokers.
Removing the whip from 21 is too many, especially when many are much liked heavyweights and veterans. Got a feeling they've totally lost it.
If they lose 6.5% of their vote from the public too they are stuffed.

I'm confused. Obviously if they win the election they can do whatever. I'm suggesting they want no deal during the election period but before the vote. Which means they don't have to win an election.
The leave keyboard warriors are having a full-on melt down hissy fit online with comments like "traitors", "my vote didn't matter" etc. They have turned politics into a football match by their hooliganisation of Brexit. No doubt the death threats to politicians who didn't vote the way they wanted and racist comments on ethnic minority MPs will follow soon.
Even if he doesn't, the Ken Clarke supporters could well say feck you to his replacement out of spite.
So the Tory MP's who have had the whip removed become Independent MPs?
Rory Stewart says he will not stand at the next election
That's got to be all of them then, surely?
Yes... Unless they choose to Join (or form) another party
Libs... Tigger's or change or whatever
Burgon just effectively confirmed Labour would run for a second referendum and campaign for Remain.
Thanks.
Man, I'm old enough to remember when he became a woke moderate upon leaving the Labour Party. Good times.
Just been looking at the casualty list again. 2 former Tory Chancellors of the Exchequer kicked out the party at a single stroke, a former Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster, and a shedload of former ministers.
Jesus this was stupid.
Jesus this was stupid.
Crazy days, an unelected prime minister kicking out the guy who was his chancellor just a couple of months ago is bad enough then you've got the rest.
The worrying thing is the normalisation. What will they push towards next?

Night of the long knives.
It's my Party, and I'll cry if I want to.
A general election and the scum of the earth Lib Dems will win a load of seats back.
I think im going to be sick.
