Like so much of what has happened in the last couple years, this seems backward to me. Surely it would have made more sense to have a general election before triggering Article 50 to shore up support for it? I mean anyone can write the letter...
That said, it's politically expedient to do this now with Labour in absolute shambles. Feels a bit silly to blame a politician for being "politically savvy."
May have to come off this site for a couple of months...
Perhaps you could suggest an amendment to the thread title so it is made clearer what the topic is and you won't inadvertently open it and then you won't have to come off the site for the next few months.
Whilst at first glance this election is pointless I think we can expect some important changes: The conservatives will have an imensely strong government, Labour will have a reality check with UKIP, Greens and Lib Dems all achieving similar vote numbers to labour thus making people from all spectrums finally call for a representative voting system. Also the SNP will be challenged as many scots are becoming fed up with the division being caused within Scotland over the possibility of a second referendum.

I think this will be a very important election.
Who, in your opinion, will challenge the SNP?
Well many Scottish people are becoming fed up with the constant argument over UK membership, hence large support on the government petition website against another referendum to further divide Scotland. I'm not claimin they will lose their majority in Scotland but wouldn't be surprised if the conservatives managed to pull a couple seats back

Donald Trump filed for re-election the day he was sworn in as President.
