At last all parties have agreed we will have a election in December,

After all these  months of infighting and petty insults from all parties it will be good it will all end ( we hope )

I hope the government gets in with a decent majority so they can govern whoever they are.

I don't Chris  

I shall listen to all parties before I decide I would vote for the SNP if I could because I think they should have independence.

You can not have too many elections or referendums Chris

Will it actually be a general election or just an obscured referendum? people generally not voting for policies or taking any notice of them, just hellbent on where to put their best vote to leave or remain.

What a flipping waste of time! We’ve got a 3 months extension and they’re going to waste half of it with an election campaign.

Hopefully the Brexit party will grab 20 odd percent of the vote and no seats, then we can get rid of the Tories, and teach them a lesson for putting their own interests ahead of the country’s.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

The stupid thing here is that Johnson could have made his agreement (crap though it is) and got it through parliament (probably with one or two amendments) if there had only been more time to do so. It was his cynical prorogration of parliament later ruled illegal which has led to this.

I don't think forcing an election was his first choice - that was forcing a hard exit. Anybody complaining about this election and the timing of it only has one person to blame. Unfortunately, I don't have any faith that he will get the blame, especially as his cheerleaders in the press will spend the next 6 weeks dishonestly pumping out misinformation and outright lies.
