By making access to the Single Market pivotal, Jeremy Corbyn has put pressure on Theresa May‘s government, possibly forcing it to call an early election – an early election would pose further challenges for Brexiteers.

Thoughts?

  1. An early election should be called so that the Conservatives secure a large working majority. Then we need a reduction in the overall number of MP’s so that Corbyn and his Red Guard can be reduced to a cipher followed by House of Lords abolition and replacement with a slimmed down Senate. In the meantime Mrs May must appeal the legal decision and strike new trade deals outside the EU

    • John,

      I agree with you about an early election and cutting the number of MPs. However, I do not believe that new trade deals outside the EU will match the potential loss of trade with the EU with a hard Brexit – certainly, for the forseeble future

      • Unless something is done to curb executive pay ,increase worker productivity and get directors out of their boardrooms and into cars,planes and sleeper trains selling things we will have a problem with increasing exports.
        Whether Mrs May is prepared to light a fire under these people is a moot point but sooner or later it has to be done.
