So Brexit seems to be a good thing then.

Yawn, there is no "bill" there is a framework agreed with the EU, this framework will generate a bill, part of that framework (there are three parts) was for payments during the transition
Period, if we leave with no deal, clearly we have no transition - hence no payments
This is basic stuff and the EU will not press for transitional payments where none is due
But if we start bull****ting "gypsy / traveller / pikey" styley over the agreed framework for the rest of the monies owed
Expect us to be treated like a "pikey" by the international community

According to Parliament prorogating as been going on for years.
Unless others know better.

lol,i did not
and I apologise
but to reiterate - there is no "bill", there is a framework that will drive out a final figure - if we leave with no transition, then clearly the final "bill" is reduced

This period has been the longest in history without a new Queens speech. So well over due.
Tactically masterful for other reasons, but non the less totally legitimate normal practice.
I'd be surprised if it was able to be revoked after listening to a QC describe why the courts aren't concerned with the rights or wrongs of the decision, except it was done with the correct intention- to prorogue for Queens Speech. That is why the Scottish bunch are wanting the PM to say on oath why hes prorogued parliament. He wont, hes already said publicly why he's doing it. The actual days are 4-6, Conference season in between, so there can be no argument that parliament was shut down from September till Oct31

Looks like they are planning to go through with the plan to remove the whip from the 21 Tory rebels who voted against the government tonight. Rory Stewart has apparently resigned the whip anyway but quite shoking is them kicking out the father of the house, Ken Clark and Winston Churchills grandson Nicholas Soames. Really quite shocking!
Along with Rees Mogg lying down on the front bench, this government is utterly contemptuous!

Interesting news from the Beeb
"More than 100,000 people have applied to register to vote in the past 48 hours.
A total of 52,408 applications were submitted on Monday, followed by 64,485 on Tuesday.
In both cases this is well above the typical number for weekday applications, which has been averaging around 27,000 for the past month.
The jump suggests growing public expectation of a general election.
More than half (58 per cent) of applications submitted in the past two days were from people aged 34 and under, while just 8 per cent came from those aged 65 and over."
statistically the youngsters vote remain...

So corbyn has ruled out an election as he knows he will lose, parliament is shutting for a month and we are at a default.
No deal brexit on the 31st it is then
one thing that i do find confusing, and this is actually a genuine question, why do all these legal challenges keep happening in Scottish, not english courts?

The vote this evening will therefore be very important in stopping a no deal in October. By forcing no-deal off the table for October, they can then let the PM have his proroguing and once the extension is secure, they can push through a no confidence vote in which case parliament sets the time-table for the election. Now Johnson has a significant minority in government, he can't do much any more anyway!
That also confused me somewhat and I'm also wondering about what power the Scottish courts have over Westminster. I'm sure there is some logic behind it though!

The reason Corbyn doesn't want an election is because the date of the election is chosen by the PM and only gets set after MPs have voted for the election. Johnson is currently saying the election will be in October, but there is nothing to stop him saying it will be in November once they vote on it, thus letting the clock run down before parliament can do anything about it! That's why they are calling it an elephant trap, such them in to voting for an election then have the election when its too late to do anything about Brexit.

If I'm reading it right then that's not answering the question. Just says we dont have to accept the extension date. I'm talking about if the eu agrees to the extension in the first place.
