It's an utterly bizarre situation where the opposition is seemingly

They are smart enough not to fall into the trap of executing a

his disastrous hard Brexit has been forced through.

Quite. Seems to have been his whole policy to date. Break or bend any
rules for his own ends. The only way to regain the votes the Tories
have
lost to the Brexit party.

But you can't really expect the likes of Boris to know or care what
might
be best for the country.

Is Corbyn's propping up Boris in office but unable to govern 'the best
for the country'?

Are you desperate to vote Corbyn in, then?

We need a general election regardless of the result.

But if the same proportions are elected then nothing will change.

They never, ever, have been.

The pack needs shuffling.

But I don't see a Corbyn government given Labour's standing in the
polls, and the complete inability of Labour and other Remain parties
to come to any compromise agreement.Â* The Remain vote will therefore
be hopelessly split between Labour, the LibDems, the Greens and the SNP.

Why else do you think Corbyn is so scared to bring a no confidence
motion that he would almost certainly win?

You still don't get it do you!?
boris will use such a vote to disolve parliament to prevent democratic
debate over brexit.
He already shown his intent with the attempt at a five week prorgument.

Regardless of Boris's motives, which we weren't talking about, Corbyn's
are not to lose his power base which he certainly would in a general
election. He is frightened stiff to do anything that could result in
such an election. That's why he's running scared of the electorate and
will make any feeble excuse he can not to agree to an election, or to
force a motion of no confidence which he would almost certainly win but
would have the same consequence.

It's a pathetic vision of what is supposed to be an opposition
impressing the public as a government-in-waiting ready to assume power.

How low Labour have sunk.
