That is entirely down to Boris. It was his insistence on a no deal
Brexit that lead a number of Conservative MPs, his brother included, to
put the national interest before their own careers. He single handedly
lost the government's working majority and, having lost control, nobody
trusts him enough to give it back.


But actually he hasn't insisted on a no deal Brexit.


He has said he would have the UK leave on 31st October, deal or no deal.


Yes, to put a bomb under Barnier.

He has made no serious moves to negotiate a deal


Thats a bare faced lie.

and has suspended parliament,


Must be why we saw the **** fight last week.

so there wouldn't be enough time to debate it if he did.


Another bare faced remoaner lie.

His intentions couldn't be more clear if they were written in 10 foot high
letters across the front of the Palace of Westminster.


Even more flagrantly dishonest than you
usually manage and thats saying something.

If he had, Farage would not be saying at his conference that he will
fight the Conservatives in every seat in the land....


That is just Nigel throwing his toys out of the pram, because he isn't
getting the media attention he thinks he deserves.


Even more flagrantly dishonest than you
usually manage and thats saying something.

If it were about Brexit, rather than about Nigel wanting to feel
important, he would say that The Brexit party would not be putting up any
candidates in a general election and urging anybody who would have voted
for them to vote Conservative.


Even more sillier than you usually
manage and thats saying something.

David Cameron didn't call the referendum because he thought that UKIP
would ever be a serious force in parliament. He called it because he
thought they could take enough votes from the Conservatives to lose them a
general election.


Nope, he had the referendum stupidly assuming that it would
produce a result that would shut up the Tory brexiteers.

The same applies now with TBP. If Boris is going to be the one to take the
UK out of the EU, he needs to win Labour marginal seats in Leave voting
areas.


BULL**** given the Labour poll results.

At Peterborough, the Brexit party took Leave voters from Labour, but far
more from the Conservatives, with the result that Labour won.


One seat proves nothing, stupid.

Had TBP supporters voted Conservative, it would have been a decisive
Conservative win. The same is likely to happen in any Labour marginal in
any Leave area.


Even more sillier than you usually
manage and thats saying something.

There's no getting away from it. Corbyn was unequivocal about wanting an
election and being ready for one just four days ago:


Now that one has been offered, it turns out he didn't really mean it at
all.


He's running scared and denying the 'democratic way forward' he so nobly
espoused so little time ago.


As I said, Labour is more than willing to have a general election, but
when it suits them, in November, not when it suits Boris.


We'll see...
