John Lambies Doos Posted July 18, 2019 Author Share Posted July 18, 2019 No, I think I'd want to do that alone, I'd expect Ireland wouldn't want it either.Hard border it is then? Union dead. Great stuff. Would anyone else here take a union (loose albeit) between Scotland and Ireland, perhaps sharing Embassy’s/defence and certain aspects of foreign policy? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he puts too many Brexiters in government it will make a hard brexit or no deal more difficult to achieve, since fewer remainers in cabinet= fewer remainer MPs bound by collective responsibility. Johnson has already created three or four potential rebels against a hard brexit in Hammond, Gauke and Duncan, which already loses his majority when DUP are taken into account. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harry94 Posted July 22, 2019 Share Posted July 22, 2019 Shits about to hit the fan. A Tory Minister, Alan Duncan resigned in anticipation of Boris being elected. Now, in itself, this isn't a big deal as it would be likely that Boris would bring in his loyalists anyway but it seems like he's went to Bercow and asked for some sort of vote and been declined for whatever reason. In theory, just two defections could collapse the government. Under the FTPA, there would be two weeks for a government to be formed in the Commons before going to a general election - it could be a case of some going a national government type scenario. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
