Who knows what the exact process is, but given that only 300-odd people vote in a two hour time frame, nothing to stop Brady and his bods counting the votes as they come in.
Yes, but we can't tell you. It's a secret.
i suppose, just that you see so many different numbers been thrown around on the twittersphere
They can’t, it’s a secret ballot.
Where does 86 rank in the scale of ‘rebellion crushed’ to ‘government in collapse’? I don’t really understand how people have judged this.
That would be 317 votes... Pretty sure The speaker does not get a vote (he's a conservative MP)
I think anything under 100 votes against and she is probably strengthened
If that happens do you think she orchestrated the vote to strengthen her hand within the party.
50-75 huge win for may
75-100 what is roughly expected and a strong win
100-125 a win but a major worry for her
125-157 and it would be hard to see her survive even though its Technically a win
That is pretty much hard Brexiteers against the rest.
It's not a win. Anything more than 60 and she will probabky lose a labour motion.
So May could resign if she only won by only 4% of the vote after spending a year negotiating a brexit she doesn't want because leave won by 4% of the vote.
Makes as much sense as any of it I suppose.
Given her ineptitude to date I think it's highly unlikely she has the ability to pull that together
Doubt it I've heard about 20mps who submitted a letter and all said they would back her against a labour motion... Dup have said as much as well
Her permanent secretary might have the wherewithal or have I watched too much 'Yes Prime Minister'
Based on my experience in whitehall I sadly think you have indeed watched too much and you may be greatly overestimating their competence
Good show though.
Better watch The thick of it
I have that's good as well.

Imagine living in a country where Boris could become the leader.
Here we go...
I’m glad they’re finding it funny.

Can't believe @Damien hasn't even changed the thread title.
May survives no confidence vote
She survives
Predictable.
She lives
May stays
200 for, 117 against.
117 votes against. That's a lot.
Heaar Heaaar
I say, jolly good job ol' boys. Now time for the big party - get the cocaine!

May wins 200-117
That’s quite a big rebellion.
The whooping was so fecking weird.
That's not a good win.
The whole conduct of these c*nts is just bizarre. They’re not even people.
117 voted no
How any working class person votes for them is just staggering.
(not that Labour don't have their toffs as well)
Labour might have enough to win a vote of no confidence in the government if a few of the hard right tories throw their toys out of the pram.
Rees-Mogg is such a cnut. Hard to hate him anymore.
