It is strange how at the moment only Boris wants an election.
I wonder why...

The actual answer...

If he calls an election the constituencies of the deselected rebel Tories
and retirees will be able to put up new loyal candidates. Thus maintaining
or increasing his majority (so he hopes)

and these current MPS might stand as Independents, so splitting the Tory
vote.

As it is, his position is falling away as a result of withdrawing the
whip from the rebels who are either going to vote against him, or abstain.

Why should Corbyn want to help him out at this point ?

The penny possibly dropped as he was facing Corbyn across the dispatch
box and was reduced I believe, to calling him a big girl's blouse.

Anyway, thank you for your question.
