• Does this help in any way? You just need a 2/3 majority no?

    It shortens the timeline I think - they're betting on Corbyn being unwilling to stand aside, therefore a GNU won't get the votes, which means they can shortcut the timing to get a GE before Brexit day - an election after Brexit day would be suicidal as we'd have the actual results of no-deal, food and medicine shortages, English Police on the border in NI etc.

  • Does it not take several weeks to organize an election? The problems may just bite?

    Let's hope this is all to force some sort of deal through, but with the backstop rhetorics I'm really not sure that is the plan.
