It might if people abstain however I think the opposition want Boris to state he won’t bring WAB back before election and then it might pass.

Oh, right, I forgot about that. Thanks!Far from a politics guy but I think it would be a bill tomorrow, which makes it different because you can make amendments to it along the way (like tweaking the date or lowering the voting age if its doable, etc).
Also forgot about people abstaining.It might if people abstain however I think the opposition want Boris to state he won’t bring WAB back before election and then it might pass.
Guess Boris might win his first vote tomorrow then?

Corbyn refuses to back election unless Johnson can confirm that Corbyn will win.

Latest on Sky is that No. 10 saying they will not bring back the WAB pre-election, in order to get SNP and Lib Dems to the table on the election bill. Presumably Parliament to dissolve rapidly in that case.
Would radically change the dynamics of the election, and also the numbers for tomorrow's vote.

Presumably snp and libs will vote for it... And I'm not sure labour will even vote againstWhy do sky news pundits assume that the mps who didn't vote for an election 30mins ago will certainly vote for one tomorrow? (I get that it only needs a simple majority, but 299 doesn't get one!?)

If I was in his position I would never want an election. But there has to be one because if nothing happens and there's more time wasting in the next three months a repeat extension will definitely not happen.

Arguing the toss over who gets a mini victory.
I think if the Lib Dem amendment gets through then the date of the election cannot be changed whereas the Government one can so that is why along with targeting students before they break up.

My office is on the first floor while the kitchen is on the ground floor so a Segway would be problematic.Just two floors but I wouldn't mind a Segway to get from the office to the kitchen

Don't they do that every year as part of NHS procurement or is this outside that?

This is one of the major things that I agree with Corbyn about. We need to reduce the cost of drugs to the NHS not increasing them.

Why would the leader of the opposition vote for an election when the Government is hamstrung and losing nearly every vote that they bring before parliament. They have got the PM where they want him why release him form his cage?Don’t see how Corbyn can hide from a GE any longer. Meant to be the leader of the opposition ffs.

I don't think that's true... They are achieving nothing other than running down time to a no deal deadline on 31st JanWhy would the leader of the opposition vote for an election when the Government is hamstrung and losing nearly every vote that they bring before parliament. They have got the PM where they want him why release him form his cage?
And not going for a no confidence vote really is starting to look like they are scared at just how low corbyns numbers might be if he tried to command a majority in parliament

I think that Labour's vote is irrevocably split on Brexit. Could they get enough votes from either leave or remain?I don't think that's true... They are achieving nothing other than running down time to a no deal deadline on 31st Jan

In addition to post further below, also means Boris can’t change date if Lib Dem bill passes and more students may vote according to Lib Dem’s.

An election should happen at 3am on a Friday when everyone is pissed,then we'll get some interesting results!

That must have happened when the referendum was held in 2016 - makes sense now.

As entertaining as it is to watch BoJo make a fool of himself over and over, the country needs a government, not this shit show.Why would the leader of the opposition vote for an election when the Government is hamstrung and losing nearly every vote that they bring before parliament.

But while the only majority that we may get is a BoJo led Tory party why would the opposition vote for it.As entertaining as it is to watch BoJo make a fool of himself over and over, the country needs a government, not this shit show.
Labour is better off if Brexit goes through without their support and is a complete Shite Show.

I think the opposition parties are going to score a massive own goal if they keep it up much longerAs entertaining as it is to watch BoJo make a fool of himself over and over, the country needs a government, not this shit show.
They will either ensure a campaign over Xmas (I don't think that will go down well with the public and it surely favours the people currently leading the polls (i.e. the conservatives ) as essentially they will loose a couple of weeks campaign time as people tune out) or if a campaign does not start till after Xmas they will need another extension and I think the EU might be annoyed by that point.
Would be interested to see the polling regarding delaying the election
