The Canadian suggestion may cause some here to gnash their teeth, and others to laugh.

So simply...
Force a GE - quite possible as no new tory leader has any real policy for Brexit or any that were put to the people (good test especially if they elect a sacrificial leader) a rejuvenated Lib Dems and SNP run on a unionist/EU ticket and pre agree to work in coalition if possible, at the very least form minority government and rely on some incomers?

Not that radical a suggestion. Someone else suggested it last week...... 🙂

Pity that the SNP haven't twigged yet that the easiest way to get what they want is to win a majority at Westminster and then make up their own rules.
If they joined with a preexisting national party who share many of their views and who don't care much about independence either way.
A party which most voters agree with but don't take seriously because the lack the serious politcial credentials.
A national SNP / Green party alliance perhaps. The moral high ground of the Greens combined with the efficient, ruthless political machine that is the SNP currently.
There'd be an unusual choice for the countryside brexiteers.

You've got to love that Canadian sense of humour - Wee Pissy Nickers would be less popular in Englnd than Junker.

Watches, with a slightly amused smile, waiting for certain individuals to turn up.

The same amount as UKIP.
MP count isn't currently a good indicator of influence in this country it would seem.

Good idea,I am sure she would be welcomed with open arms.
The last Prime Ministers from Scotland did rather well. 😉

Mehhhh, Corbyn as a figurehead with a decent deputy and Chancellor from a coalition to keep him in check? Sounds like a half decent plan TBH.

You mean the UK could be run by the SNP who are currently being accused of interfering in a child abuse inquiry, yep they'd fit in at Westminster perfectly 👿

Ooh, brilliant offhand smear.

You mean the one where the person heading the inquiry was felt to be siding with the perpetrators?

FFS, when I said "Makes you think" at the top of the thread that wasn't what I meant!
