Nope.

Doesn't matter what the rest of 'em do. Labour has an absolute majority...of MPs who will lose their cushy jobs and expenses at the next General Election. Since Turkeys are unlikely to vote for Christmas this is somewhat irrelevant.

My money is on an election at the last possible dates: this time next year, basically.

It's still a little on the tinfoil hat side of things to believe that Labour would try and postpone beyond that. Just.

Would require about 50 labour MPs to go through the 'wrong' lobby - despite the close attentions of the whips' office ( a nicer bunch of thugs chaps you could not hope to meet, I'm sure rolleyes ). In short, won't happen.
