Part of me wonders whether it was triggered for tactical reasons. If they can't have another for over 12mo, this ensures that she remains party leader even if the deal gets voted down in Parliament...
i very much doubt they’d risk anything remotely risky like that after what happened in the early GE last year.

They'd have had a very strong idea of who would for either way in this situation.

Politics in this country is all getting a bit scary.

The Tories couldn't organise a piss up in a brewery so have decided to somehow combine burying their heads in the sand with taking their own party out of government.

The net result increasingly seems like it's going to end in Corbyn being in number 10, which is a disaster for all and which is going to result probably within weeks in undoing many years of work on the national deficit reduction.

At the moment I feel like going into a nuclear bunker and coming out in 10 years not knowing what to expect from the UK, either being the same as it was or being a third world country.

I don’t think Labour have the support they need. I think we’ll see another coalition next and the “not-Tories” seem likeliest to pull that off right now. But it won’t solve the issue that we have an extremely divided country right now and no solution that will fix that.

You could be right, but a coalition will only lead to a continuation of the constant bickering and governmental division which got us into this mess. If Corbyn didn't win a GE surely that would be the end of his leadership?! I guess he's managed to cling on to power come what may so far!

WRT the divided country, would another referendum with the correct (;)) result and a few years of healing sort that out? Maybe.

The healing can’t start until we have a specific way forward. At the moment there is still a chance of No Deal, Deal or No Brexit, with very passionate arguments for and against each of them. Those arguments won’t stop until one of the options is carried out. Then the recriminations will come. Then the healing will start. Can’t shortcut that process, unfortunately.

I’m certain that we’ll see a global recession this year, and that won’t bloody help.

You're not the only one that senses a recession in the offing. Hopefully the UK is better equipped than it was last time to weather the storm.

China is leading the way into recession and Apple and JLR are the first public casualties of that.
