Boris lights things up for the festive season
Jeremy finds an albatross isn’t a Christmas turkey

ianl, in theory if Boris won the election he could bring 'no deal' back. He won't unless the EU does something weird. He's happy with his deal. However, contrary to what Farage says, at the end of the withdrawel agreement 'no deal' could again happen because there's no guarantee how long it would take to forge a trade agreement - the real deal. If Boris won, there would be no need for long debates over his deal because at the end of it his own MPs should pass it. Most of the remoaner MPs are going or gone. His biggest problems will be the Brexit Party being stupid and how well/badly he does in the debates/interviews. Sometimes he's good, sometimes he's rubbish. His reliability and porky pies will haunt him.
Nobody really knows why Labour supported the election (and many MPs didn't). Supreme ego? Do or die in a ditch? A recognition that they look like cowards, especially after demanding an election so many times?

M Courtney did you actually read the article you posted? It was about a coalition of Remainers not Tories.

Do Nature papers take 10 months to make ?
I thought they just rush them
Yet when Nic Lewis pointed out the error in Resplandy
the retraction took 10 months !
RetractionWatch The 10-month lag? Lisa Boucher, the press manager for Nature Research, told us:
In general, when concerns are raised about papers we have published, whether by the original authors or by other researchers and readers, we look into them carefully, following an established process, consulting the authors and, where appropriate, seeking advice from peer reviewers and other external experts. These issues are often complex and as a result, it can take time for editors and authors to fully unravel them.

Thanks for the reply, tinyCO2
As you likely saw from my 2nd post October 30 9:18am, I'd sort of figured it out.
With no deal Brexit off the table at least for the next 3 months, the UK Labour party thought it could take electoral risk with Johnson in presumed disarray.
This will be a particularly dirty, nasty, desperate election campaign, one may surmise.
