A no confidence vote in the government to trigger a general election? Absolutely no chance that gets through parliament.
Democracy has failed.
This is actually strong and stable government in the national interest.Quote:

And what happens if Corbyn takes over? The EU splits both parties and Labour will probably have as little wiggle room as the Conservatives (not that their stance on the subject is terribly clear). Frying pan into the fire. A second referendum of either in or totally out is the only answer. And if that happens we are all wiser as to some of the consequences.Quote:

As I have said before, the idea that Corbyn, if elected, would magically be able to renegotiate a deal with the EU from where we are now that cherry picks some other morsels, albeit from within a customs union, is a pipe dream.Quote:

I think the Labour Party obviously has divisions on Europe but they are small in comparison with the factionalism within Tory ranks that has destroyed most of its leaders since Thatcher. Labour's bigger problem is between the Parliamentary Party and its voters in many constituencies that voted leave not within it.
Corbyn wants a change of government not because of Europe but because he wants to bring his policies into effect. I don't think there is anything wrong with political parties trying to get power because they are often impotent without it. The fact that Corbyn trails in many polls even whilst this unedifying chaos is taking place shows what an uninspiring alternative Prime Minister he is though.
the time of proxy leaders perhapsQuote:
