Strong and Stable: Theresa May facing vote of no confidence on Wednesday - Polidicks

If this is true, then it sounds like Corbyn has overwhelming support and we might get something good for once.

I've heard contrary about the DUP, but the other parties in question have vowed to support him in tabling a Parliamentary vote of no confidence.

The DUP would never support a VONC. They hate the Brexit deal but hate Corbyn more due to his pro-irish stances and wouldn't risk toppling the ransom they told with May for a potential Labour government.

does this mean no brexit? remain?

seems pretty likely now that she can only be removed by her party removing itself from power. she can kick this to the very last minute and then give them the ultimatum loose your seat or vote for this.

New: Tory rebels have reportedly been shitposting in the Tory MP WhatsApp group, driving more MPs to support May https://blogs.spectator.co.uk/2018/12/heavy-handed-rebel-operation-in-no-confidence-vote-deters-tory-mps/

I've emailed both my MPs with this: https://www.exitbrex.it/ It's an email template, but I added a bit above to make sure it wasn't just a low effort thing. One of my MPs is a tory, one is labour. I asked that both put internal and external party politics aside (I can dream) to bring about a second referendum now that the facts have changed. If you feel the same way, I'd recommend doing it.

I'm technically a European citizen, but I've lived in this country for 5 years, studying and working and I was hoping to develop my career and life here. I emailed my MP as well and I advise everyone else to do it, I know it might seem like wasted effort to some but it's like throwing pennies into a jar, eventually if everyone does it it will fill and we'll have our bang for our buck, and if anything, it only takes like two minutes and you do some good for everyone else.

Wew I dunno how YouGov managed to poll this so quickly but there it is, the public backs May https://twitter.com/SamCoatesTimes/status/1072891075491258369

The public need to be taken out back and shot

May's popularity with the public is proof we are a stupid country.

Man I wish we had the Zing! rating back.

That logic, applied to the referendum means you can cancel Brexit because it was non-binding. You can see it's shit so cancel it!

What a good coherent response that would be to people who have differing opinions to you. Good job man, teach me more.

I think Theresa May should stay, not because I support her but because there's no time to replace her and the options are either the same or worse. 40% think she should stay, that doesn't mean 40% like her in charge.

Also it will fundamentally cripple the Tory party with the 12 month VONC shield.

The Tory party is in a bad state for so many reasons, but I think the biggest is the fact that nobody who has any inkling of a chance of succeeding May, would be a better Prime Minister than May.

If they majority of the party want her gone in the near future they will just pressure her into resigning, like what happened to Cameron. The shield is meaningless.

May, who promised there would be no election in 2017 and that the Brexit deal vote would go ahead on Tuesday, has promised she will stand down as Tory leader before the next election/2022 (implying this parliament will survive until 2022 lol) https://twitter.com/GeorgeFreemanMP/status/1072909832670380033 https://twitter.com/bbclaurak/status/1072907215579820033

Corbyn's face lol

And did anyone post about the fact that two Tory MPs who were suspended from the party for alleged sex offences have been allowed back in to cast their votes? https://www.newstatesman.com/politics/uk/2018/12/suspended-tory-mps-are-suddenly-allowed-vote-while-still-facing-sex-offence

When this is all over you could make a sitcom about Parliament and it's just people saying honorable and odah! all the time and it would still be popular. Brexit is nothing if not a source of laughter.

MPs are tweeting pictures of their ballot papers lol so much for the secret ballot

How long till it's counted ?

Result is due 1 hour and 15 minutes from now

I'm sure half of them already ran out of fucks to give like 6 months ago

The voting is over, counting has begun. What do we reckon lads I'm saying less than 100 MPs have voted against her
