Spoiler, Labour dies.
I assume any time up to 5 years after 2017.That's the end of Labour.
Maybe she felt it was needed to give her the people's backing in the Brexit negotiations. Hopefully she runs on staying in.
Will the next election after this be 2020 or 2022?
Think it will be any point in the 5 years up to 2022 after 2017.Will the next election after this be 2020 or 2022?
Her negotiating position with the EU is extremely weak. So she needs every trick she can use.Tweet

Yes, so 2022 realistically? No-one is going to call an election early in normal situations.I assume any time up to 5 years after 2017.
Miliband losing that last GE has turned into a total clusterfeck.Tories the epitome of stable government

Kate McCann, as in Maddie's mum?I really don't think this is about Labour.

Clear indication that negotiations aren't and won't go well. The EU don't give a feck if she wins every seat.
I believe what she said publically. A little to do with her standing with Europe and everything to do with our politicians being more concerned with their own agendas than the good of the nation. Potentially her Thatcher moment.I really don't think this is about Labour.

English papers fear-mongering over an SNP/Labour coalition killed it. I liked Ed a lot actually.Miliband losing that last GE has turned into a total clusterfeck.
Not going to happen. There's no way for labour play this, that they come out of it well.Labours have only one play: That they will REMAIN in EU by somehow retracting article 50 (2).
Eventhat becomes difficult as its voting for Corbyn, which I'm very reluctant to do, despite having voted Labour all my life.
Absolutely. Their hypocrisy knows no bounds.Sarcasm?
they have to do something very bold. they are going to get smashed anyway, so may as well just go for it.Not going to happen. There's no way for labour play this, that they come out of it well.
Give Obama British citizenship and have him run. Problem solved.Not going to happen. There's no way for labour play this, that they come out of it well.
I'll be voting conservatives. We need solidarity now more than anything. There will be 5 years for a genuine opposition to form, one without Corbyn preferably.I guess that massive lead in the polls over the weekend has finally pushed the Tories to strike. Mental that they have the biggest lead since 1983- we really need a functioning opposition.
How could they do this? Corbyn's already pledged to support Brexit.Labours have only one play: That they will REMAIN in EU by somehow retracting article 50 (2).

The best thing that could happen is that they run on a pro-Brexit platform I think. They're not going to win the hardcore pro-EU vote anyway so it would be good for them to split the Brexit vote and let the Lib Dems hoover up the EU vote. Still won't be enough for the Lib Dems to win, but its better than the alternative.Not going to happen. There's no way for labour play this, that they come out of it well.
