      Boris Johnson's team considering dissolving parliament in October

      The show down is coming soon. Looks like there will be a no confidence vote beforehand for which he'll probably get some Labour support.

      It's probably going to be a close one. Interesting though would be whether the Labour MPs who vote for him in the first confidence motion would vote for him in a second one in November with the country falling apart at the seams. No deal Brexit, closely followed by a GE ?

      be afraid

        Imagine what will happen to the pound on that day. Not to mention house prices, economic standing etc etc.

            Why would house prices drop? People who are living in them aren't suddenly going to all leave and live on the street creating a glut of empty properties. I would have thought the reverse would happen. Loads of cheap £s for foreign buyers would push up prices in the capital which would ripple out through the country.

            I imagine the pound and the stock market would have a blip but start to recover eventually as the deadlock would finally be broken and individuals and companies can finally start planning with a bit of certainty again.

              The thing is, the uncertainty has been going on for 3 years now, the blip has been in evidence for 3 years. Still no sign of the easiest deal in history. Still no solution to the Irish border. Still just empty promises and playing the blame game.

                I am more certain than ever that Westminster is full of people who don't believe in democracy.

                  Housing crashes don't happen because the population suddenly plummets and everyone leaves their houses. Housing crashes occur when there is a recession usually combined with rising interest rates.

                    Maybe you should move to London: London house prices suffer biggest slump since 2009, as pound keeps dropping - business live | Business | The Guardian
                    Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

                      Indeed a 4% drop in one month and still a few months from a no deal Brexit. Given the scale of redundancies now going on in the City, hardly surprising.
