Yep but the thing I want to see is whether she is clever enough to make it Heads I win Tails you lose.

Because if she makes this motion a vote of confidence, then if she wins there is an election and if she loses then the government falls and there is an election...

Is it too much to hope for that Nicola has overplayed her hand and will get a drubbing at the polls :D

She has accused Theresa May as being opportunist - pots and kettle spring to mind.

Just be grateful it's only for around 7 weeks, Saundra! :lol:

Interesting gamble. I read that many SW English seats could go back to the LibDems. Much will depend on the North of England and how far the Ukip vote holds up ....

As cynical moves go this is right up there with the very best (worst).

I will be with Saundra not listening to or reading about events up to June the 8th, then I will vote and it will not be for the Tories.

I'm with Saundra - seven weeks of puffed up commentators gassing and pontificating away? No thanks.

I just hope there are some good cowboy films on, that's all! :)

Netflix is your friend Crommers... Or Amazon Prime if you prefer..

At a price though but much less than "reach for the" sky and their version of extortion.

Cowboy films - would they be Conservative party political broadcasts?

We have had almost ten months of strong, even vehement, denials about a snap election from May. These have been backed up by plausible reasons as to why parliament should be allowed to remain intact and on track in order to keep political stability - if there was any. Now we get the revelation that she has had a Damascus conversion while out for a walk.

Do not make me laugh.

The fingerprints of this all being a sham to facilitate the easiest possible passage of the A50 bill through parliament and the HoL, at what could have been a tricky time, are all over it.

The Easter message, combined with today's announcement, are also more clear. The sub-text goes like this: "Look! All you lovely people are coming together, but it is Westminster that is divided - she then goes on to name Labour, LibDems, SNP and the HoL - it is only the Conservatives who are united :lol:. Trust me, trust us, we can all hold hands as we skip happily to gambol in the greener grass over yonder small hill."

I am not buying it. I'm out.

I just don't understand what the heck is going on.

What has happened to our P.M.? What's her game?

Are we now going to be bombarded with Party Political Parties on the TV?

I'd rather watch snooker.
