Governments win elections, they also have the power to lose them.
Governments can spend their way to victory or mitigating defeat. They can cut taxes, increase spending or just advertise themselves to victory.
In the 2010 General election and the period leading up to it there was a government advertising blitz that was within the rules but ethically speaking questionable. Should Government advertising be used in the run up to a General Election in a way to try and boost the incumbent’s possibility of electoral victory?
The same dilemma approaches now as the Government, which has not been directed elected by the people embarks on an advertising blitz, which has the potential to coincide with the calling of a General Election. I think an unelected Government is plain wrong to promote No Deal at public expense when the real reason for doing so is a blatant attempt to boost the Governments polling.
The media output of the Brexit supporting press has been producing stories on a daily basis to boost Boris Johnson and hence support the Tories. Indeed, the propaganda has gone into overdrive.
I have come to the conclusion given the misuse of public funds by the Conservative party for blatant propaganda on No Deal that the only way to deal with the PM is to remove him from office rather than trying to change legislation.0 -

Just to make it clear the German state figuers are exit polls. However the exit polls are usually very accurate, beacause of the proportional nature of the "second vote", and it is the "second vote" results being quoted here.0

Ah OK. There's an opportunity to invent a silly name for a general 3+way coalition. I suggest Confetti-Coalition :-)Alanbrooke said:
Sorry meant mult-colour coalitions. SA will be CDU led, BB SPD led. BB looks the hardxest to get a coalition but probably SPD\CDU\Greeneristdoof said:
Traffic light coalition is impossible if the FDP don't get 5%,Alanbrooke said:
The AfD vote has jumped +18% in Saxony and +10% in Brandenburg but they have no chance of going in to government. Both states will end up with traffic light coalitions.Gallowgate said:
This is the part when @HYUFD tells us how great it is that AFD are doing well and how this shows that Boris must be equivalent to the 2nd coming.Alanbrooke said:Voting in Saxony exit poll %
CDU -32
AfD - 27.5
Linke 10.5
Green -9
SPD 8
non one else over 5%
and in Sachsen the CDU wil surely be in the state government and have the Ministerpresident.
Yep I agree with your prognosis, SPD/CDU/Linke would numerically be slightly stronger than SPD/CDU/Green in BB, but the CDU is not going to work with die Linke.
The elephant in the room is, how long can the "established" parties last before a state allows a coalition with the AfD?0 -

BJ and Brexiteers have gone too far down the road of extremism to do a EEA-EFTA IMO. I would support that as it would at least be a sensible compromise. But the Brexit supporting media are never going to ware that nor will Farage and co.
I still think being in the EU is better than being outside it or a 'vassal state' deal. I think Brexit is a bit like HS2, pointless and a waste of money...0 -
I don't consider it as vassalage - it's only the rules to the extent required to maintain compliance with the single market - and we'd have forums to be consulted on any new economic rules, just as Norway do. This has been explored many times on here by Richard and Robert.Streeter said:

We shall probably end up No Dealing. A US trade deal will turn out to be a chimera. And the imbalances in the UK economy will bite us hard.
A difficult 2 to 3 years will either be followed by us accepting something that looks just like the Withdrawal Agreement (so, we had a nasty recession all for nothing), or a true socialist government is elected, as the all previous problems were due to lack of government intervention.0 -
