I don't get these people who are becoming hysterical about so called nasty Brexit Britian, where foreigners fear to tread and the working class are racist feral scum. If one million British people had, within ten years, suddenly moved to Poland, depressed wages, exacerbated a housing crisis, put pressure on services and were allowed to access healthcare and claim benefits to top up their low wages/get help with housing costs exactly the same as Polish people, even though they hadn't contributed a zloty to the country, do you think the worst that Polish people would've done would've been to vote Leave in an EU Referendum? I don't think so.

It'll probably be like it or lump it.
That's expecting a lot of MPs on either side to do either.

Tsk, only today the WTW Leavers were accusing Stephen Phillips of being a LINO. It's so difficult keeping track of the cross currents.
She will only do it if Parliament holds up triggering Article 50 beyond her deadline of March and only then if the Commons is the problem, there is little point if it is the Lords that is the problem as they could not care less if she has a majority of 300 they will still hold it up, she will have to use the Parliament Act or create more Peers to deal with them. Unless that is she goes to the country on a platform of scrapping the Lords either completely or by replacing it with an elected second chamber

They could repeal it with the Parliament Act? Although FTPA is a bit of a Pandora's box, since I don't think a prerogative can be restored by an act of parliament.

If she does seek a mandate for "hard" Brexit (which in reality is just Brexit because soft Brexit is Remain in all but name), surely the likes of Soubry, Morgan, Osborne and other Remain diehards won't be able to stand on a Tory Brexit manifesto? I hope this happens, May needs to call their bluff.

My brother is right. I still find Trump seriously cringeworthy and creepy..... yet he has definitely smoothed and finessed his performance. He sounds more like a normal, lying politician, with an added, and eccentric charisma. And his policies definitely chime.
He could win.
Trump is doing 8 rallies over the next 3 days, Hillary just 4. In fact Trump is doing 4 tomorrow in Florida, NC, Nevada and Colorado, Hillary just one in Florida.

There's no way TMay will call an election and then campaign explicitly for a Hard Brexit. You surely see this. It invites an incredible and unprecedented defeat: uniting the Remainers and the soft nervous Brexiteers against her.
She will produce a manifesto saying "Brexit means Brexit" etc etc. Leaving her options open.
That's what the Telegraph article says.
As you said it sounds bonkers.
But bonkers does fit her approach to Brexit, all of this could have been avoided by a simple Article 50 bill and vote.

Brexit won't happen, unless a party fights and wins a general election on a platform of Brexit, and then passes primary legislation to implement it.
The FTPA is no obstacle to anything. Challenge Labour to vote for a dissolution, and they almost certainly will. Firstly, they'll look frit if they don't, and secondly both the SNP and Lib Dems will vote for a dissolution and accuse Labour of passing on the chance to take down the hated Tories (and Hard Brexit into the bargain) if they refuse to follow suit. The key plank of SNP strategy, to entrench themselves permanently as the natural party of Government in Edinburgh, is to supplant and kill Scottish Labour, and this would get them another step closer to doing it.
Even failing a two-thirds supermajority, all May has to do is resign as PM and wait a fortnight. She probably wouldn't even have to vacate Number 10, as she would presumably be left in office as caretaker PM: no alternative Government that could command a Commons majority for a vote of confidence is possible (even the most ultra pro-EU Tory rebels aren't likely to vote in a Labour-led rainbow coalition,) so there would be no alternative PM for the Queen to call.
Thus, if May is determined to have an early election, I don't see any likely scenario in which she can't force the issue, either immediately or in pretty short order.
Theresa May would seek a doctor's mandate. Her problem is that she has lost enough authority already to seek it without demur from her backbenchers. The window for such a mandate has closed.
@Richard Tyndall Did you not see the red top headlines today? To use USA terminology there is no pathway to a soft Brexit. I doubt the EU would agree to it anyway. People like Alastair and me.....we knew that the EU was a bit dysfunctional...but better to stay in and try and improve it. But's that all by the by. A hard Brexit it is....whatever people like you have to say about it.....
you had 40 years you didnt improve it for ordinary people
Claptrap. Europe has enjoyed its longest period of peace and prosperity in centuries.
Thank heavens for NATO and shame on some European countries for trying to undermine it.
I pour utter scorn on the EU and its sycophantic supporters for even daring to try and claim credit for either peace or prosperity in Europe.
Without the Schumann declaration and the moves to federalise industrial policy between France and West Germany the history of NATO and the Cold War would have been very different. You're only seeing half the story.

Of course, you were not the only one to make that mistake........

This article sounds like the Liam Fox faction flying a kite. What about the commitments to Nissan to maintain no barriers on vehicle and supply chain transfers with the EU? Is that just last week's policy, to be ditched this week?

No, it would work. She'd say she wanted X, Y and Z (financial passporting, control over immigration, a pony) but she wasn't going to say anything that would spoil Britain's negotiating hand. It wouldn't look great but it would be plenty enough to hold off Corbyn and what's left of UKIP.

538 have switched Florida and North Carolina into the Trump slot and Nevada as a dead heat, leaving just New Hampshire in the fragile firewall. The slightly good news for those of us who would pass on another "interesting" election result is that Clinton is doing better in the polls that were canvassed into November than those from the end of last week.
The other useful thing about a spring election is that it allows her to stall Article 50 for at least a few more months, giving her a bit more time to work out WTF to do.

Does not help that from her schedule it seems she is looking to spend half of the weekend in bed while Trump's schedule suggests he may not have much time for any sleep at all over the next 72 hours. This reminds me of 2000 where Gore campaigned almost non-stop over the last few days while Bush went home for a rest for part of the time, coupled with Bush's drink driving conviction (see Hillary's emails) Gore won the popular vote. I can see Trump eking out a win in the popular vote even if he falls short in the EC

Indeed. If I had been offered, say, the chance to vote down the EU Constitution, I would have sat back contented. As would many millions of eurosceptics. I would have felt no need for another in/out referendum ten years later. Why? We would have stopped integration, or at least excused Britain from further integration.
No, you wouldn't. You'd have sat back contented for maybe 25 minutes, or at the most until the next immigration and/or EU court outrage, then you'd have had a violent mood swing.

Nothing much will be agreed with the EU in the Article 50 negotiations. The EU side don't have the time, the will or probably the capacity. Bear in mind that we are breaking away from them and they have political and constitutional constraints too. We will leave either with nothing or no substantial change. The first is the default and the second isn't only up to us.
So what we want from Brexit is much less relevant than what we are likely to get.
My brother - an excitable type, but very smart - has just demanded I watch Trump at one of his more recent rallies, to see how the Donald has improved as a candidate. I chose Selma.
My brother is right. I still find Trump seriously cringeworthy and creepy..... yet he has definitely smoothed and finessed his performance. He sounds more like a normal, lying politician, with an added, and eccentric charisma. And his policies definitely chime.
He could win.
Trump is doing 8 rallies over the next 3 days, Hillary just 4. In fact Trump is doing 4 tomorrow in Florida, NC, Nevada and Colorado, Hillary just one in Florida. Instead she is relying on Bill, Chelsea, the Obamas and Sanders and Kaine and Biden to do most of the final push https://www.donaldjtrump.com/schedule/ https://hillaryspeeches.com/scheduled-events/
Huckabee argues, quite plausibly , that it won't be particularly close ;
Interesting he says the reason the final Clinton rally is in Philadelphia is because they are worried about Pennsylvania
Kellyanne Conway was making a similar point on Fox. Incidentally, if Trump wins, she'll probably be the most in demand political consultant in the world.
On topic: Mrs May is indeed finding, as predicted by one of the political journalists, that the job of PM isn't as easy as Cameron made it look. Of course, she has intrinsically a particularly hard challenge, but she's made it worse for herself, with missteps such as the half-baked grammar-school nonsense, the miscalculation over Article 50, the delay in approving Heathrow expansion, the unnecessary making of enemies, the poor handling of the Hinkley Point decision, the unbalanced nature of the three key Brexit appointments, and a generally arrogant style. None of these errors are fatal, especially given the abject state of all three of the other main UK parties, but they are accumulating.
There is no doubt in my mind that preparations are being made for a GE. There are a number of small indicators of this, some in the public domain, some inside the party. Of course, that doesn't mean that the decision has been taken; at this stage, it's probably contingency planning. But the contingency is looking every more likely.
I don't think it is wise to put your last rally in a swing state, if you can help it. Put it somewhere it is valuable, but make sure you can draw the crowds and attention, make it a bit of a homecoming.

I wouldn't waste an election on Brexit is Brexit. I'd use it to get support of the position I wanted to tie up with Brussels.
Indeed. If I had been offered, say, the chance to vote down the EU Constitution, I would have sat back contented. As would many millions of eurosceptics. I would have felt no need for another in/out referendum ten years later. Why? We would have stopped integration, or at least excused Britain from further integration.
No, you wouldn't. You'd have sat back contented for maybe 25 minutes, or at the most until the next immigration and/or EU court outrage, then you'd have had a violent mood swing.
No, you're wrong. If I'd successfully been part of a campaign to say NO to the Constitution/Lisbon I would have felt no more desire to be in an EU referendum for several decades. Integration would have stopped (at least for the UK). Boring civil servants would have worked out a boring solution, over many years.
Referendums are divisive and nasty (tho sometmes necessary) as we see. People don't want them repeated quickly.
As an aside, of course, if we Brits had voted down the Constitution/Lisbon the wretched Article 50 would not exist. Leaving the EU could be done in a second, with just an act of parliament, and the leaving member would have VASTLY more leverage.
We can still leave by walking away. Supposedly Article 50 will make leaving a bit less painful.

Cameron may be a more natural PM but it was his failure to win the referendum which led to the May premiership and May is more in tune with Tory voters and members than he was

Interesting he says the reason the final Clinton rally is in Philadelphia is because they are worried about Pennsylvania
The polls would suggest they should be worried about Pennsylvania. Their average lead is down to about 2.6 points.
The more credible explanation for PA is that it's a relatively close contest - and doesn't have early voting, so a final rally there makes sense, worry or not.
I wouldn't waste an election on Brexit is Brexit. I'd use it to get support of the position I wanted to tie up with Brussels.
She can't, because the deal we get with Brussels is not in her power, it's a negotiation. If she is too specific she'll be setting herself up for failure. That is why it is so absurd for her critics to moan on about laying out he position in advance.
However, she can't hold off such demands, unreasonable though they are, for too long. Arguably she has already run out of time; from now on, opposition will mount and become better organised.
It's a God-awful mess, to be quite frank, essentially because the Leave side was deliberately incoherent.

That is a very good post Richard...
Personally, I cannot see why the hell Theresa would want all this crap to be honest. She's glamorous, she obviously enjoys shopping, her husband looks to be a very nice man, and they seem to have a good relationship...she has a chronic health condition, and could possibly have at best maybe 10 years of good quality life which she could spend at her leisure....
Why in god's name would she want a job where she possibly has to speak to Liam Fox most days, and if she gets a day away from Liam Fox, then it's David David. I think Boris probably isn't hard work....but those first two certainly are.
Is Theresa PM for her own ego? I don't know. Hillary clearly has some ego issues that she needs to vanquish by being POTUS....but the lovely Theresa? I don't know.
On the assumption a fully committed leave conservative stands and gets elected the constituency will have a full time MP and TM a committed leaver
But SeanT reckons a half-hearted leave Conservative candidate is the "logical" outcome
I presume there won't be mass conservative reselections between now and 2017. In which case, in a new GE, the Tory party will be returned to power much as it is now with some added members, meaning a mildly eurosceptic, soft-Brexity kind of party, with a mandate for LEAVE but many MPs, perhaps most, reluctantly in favour of Remain.
That says Soft Brexit, dunnit?
What's the manifesto on Brexit? What are the limits of the broad church?

hmmmm. Its because it has no early voting and might as well have it their to lock it up.
Trump could obviously win, but mick huckabee doesnt know the plot of Jaws, so who cares?
Pennsylvania would not lock it up for her, Florida or Ohio would, if she is playing defense in Pennsylvania she may be in trouble
If she loses Pennsylvania the gig's up. If she wins that but not Florida she is probably, but not definitely, OK. Ohio is lost to her already. She has to a final stop somewhere. Pennsylvania is as good a place as any.

I don't want her to lay her position out in advance. I want her to play her cards further down the line, when the negotiation needs to be kicked over the final hurdle. She doesn't need to actually call one, but she does need to credibly threaten to.

I'd almost certainly not vote Tory in a general election for the first time in my life.
theyll bribe them with prospects and the 170 will shrink to 70 and the 145 will become 245
youll enjoy not being a sheep
( but we all know youll crack at the last minute like SO )
Last night the Tories took a seat of SNP and one from the Lib Dems
Maybe more MP's than Panda's for the Tories at the next GE, whenever it is
one MP from300+ has a principle
start counting from there

why are lawyers such drama queens ?
buy a spine - and soon
Alastair is right, that the only viable route to catharsis is the hardest of all possible Brexits, border controls, WTO tariffs, the whole 9 yards.
My local Tory MP was a prominent Brexiteer and would probably stand on such a ticket.
And there is no way I would vote for the fuckers
I mean you lie to clients for a living and suddenly you have principles ?
As you said it sounds bonkers.
But bonkers does fit her approach to Brexit, all of this could have been avoided by a simple Article 50 bill and vote.
Id go for that
Even failing a two-thirds supermajority, all May has to do is resign as PM and wait a fortnight. She probably wouldn't even have to vacate Number 10, as she would presumably be left in office as caretaker PM: no alternative Government that could command a Commons majority for a vote of confidence is possible (even the most ultra pro-EU Tory rebels aren't likely to vote in a Labour-led rainbow coalition,) so there would be no alternative PM for the Queen to call.
Thus, if May is determined to have an early election, I don't see any likely scenario in which she can't force the issue, either immediately or in pretty short order.
Play nicely and don't forget to discuss the Scottish Independence angle to (Hard) Brexit
Of course, you were not the only one to make that mistake........
This article sounds like the Liam Fox faction flying a kite. What about the commitments to Nissan to maintain no barriers on vehicle and supply chain transfers with the EU? Is that just last week's policy, to be ditched this week?
Not a bad outcome, in my view.

A Tory can stand on a soft Brexit ticket, against UKIP.
Landslide, right? That's your "logical" prediction...
Top TX early vote increases vs. '12, thru Day 11:
1. Travis (D) +66%
2. El Paso (D) +62%
3. Williamson (R) +59%
4. Cameron (D) +51%
He is also reported to earn £750, 000 pa as a QC representing some 212 days work pa.
