Exactly. Seems like an obvious tit for tat that I can see. Labour threatens mutiny via vote of no confidence and overspill gen election hopes across deadline, tories respond with a check/mate. It's all such childish bullshit, what the people should be doing is telling all parliamentarians to #### off, we can sort it out ourselves. But the trouble is, the population seems to enjoy polarisation, so that whatever their chosen enemy in this matter does is 100% wrong and what ever their chosen messiah does is 100% right. Neither is true, of course, because neither seem to give two shits about democracy, or the will of the people. As far as this development goes, dispassionately I'd venture that labour attempted a coup and Johnson slapped them down and now they're feeling sore about that. Labour would have more support if they tried to work within the confines of a deal or no deal brexit for something positive instead of plugging fingers in collective ears and pretending it's not happening and the people didn't vote for it. They did, and the only thing I can see happening as things unfold is that we will end up with a one party state at the end of it all. That still doesn't make me want to lend my support to a corrupt labour, any more than i want to support a true to nature Tory party. All this continues to go on as the real things we need (like the nhs) get busily tidyed away while we're all looking the other way at the bullshit spectacle of politicians having fisticuffs in the playground.
