The below sums up Labours frantic attempts to justify not voting for a GE (those that bothered to turn up of course).

Owen Smith Labour "It would NOT be democratic to rush headlong into an election"

Owen Smith "The electorate made an historic mistake"
Nick Ferrari " you mean we voted to leave".

Labour MPs last night on Ian Dale " we can't have an election in December it gets dark". "What about the students universities break up around then".

Ian Dale "70% of students are registered to vote at their parents home not at university. You can be registered to vote at university and at home but can only vote once. It take 5 minutes to do online and you have until late November"

Labour "yes but people are busy..."
Ian Dale "C'mon how about a bit of personal responsibility if people can't be bothered to register..."

Hopefully Boris gets his way today and then we can all have our say. Funny how MPs who changed parties or are in Brexit constituencies want a referendum rather than a GE. I think the public would prefer to judge their MPs first.

Still all to play for.

One more point

People who call the PM by his first name, like their own cuddly friend, are psychologically damaged.

To our chagrin, he is somehow PM, and his name is Johnson.

That is his job, he is not your friend or cohort if he met you he would probably think you a right t**t.

And he would be right.

Where are we?

Well, brexit can only ever be for the next hour or so.

So, with the withdrawal bill, which parliament has just approved, now ditched, we leave the EU on 31st under 'no deal'.

I think, for the next hour or so anyway.

They’ll be known as the scared politicians that don’t want the election, taking the other parties to make it happen. They’re defeating themselves before it’s started.

COYP

People who take photographs of manhole covers aren’t a good advert for mental stability either so The Magic Grandpa had better watch out.

Yep. He should act like Keith Vaz.
