even more strongly a man by president i am even more strongly a few other dress by president trump in westminster you in a dress by president trump in westminster hall with. the with the will join alex with our pundits ponder shortly but 1st to scotland economic clinton alex with our pundits ponder shortly but 1st to scotland. economic commentator michael fried is something of a rarity a free market economist but also commentator michael fry is something of a rarity a free market economist but also is supporter of scottish independence alex asked some we're stunned scot is supporter of scottish independence alex asked some we're stunned scotland in this christmas break city election and about his recollections

of wind chill actions and in this christmas breakfast election and about his recollections of wind chill actions of the past. political commentator but of the past. and michael fry a political commentator but also a notable historian so let's have a look at the when some of the notions to pull his. have said let's some a look at the when some elections of the 20th century know that there was another went to the election and federally in 1974 when edward teach and i know there was another went to the election and fed lee in 1974 when told it by the minister with a majority in the house of commons went to the country and things done he taught it by the minister with a majority in the house of commons went to the country and things done as he expected either absolutely not well he wanted to make it a an election of the government versus the trade unions which as he expected either

absolutely not well he wanted to make it a an election of the government versus the trade unions which is the a rather distant analogy from boris's election about the people that is the a rather distant analogy from boris's election about the people versus parliament about the early seventy's had been a time of rising as his parliament about the early seventy's had been a time of rising industrial unrest especially as again britain with industrial unrest especially as again britain was losing its economic position in the world and various staple industries it was losing its economic position in the world and various staple industries you know obviously mining but also in scotland shipbuilding and coal miners you know obviously mining but also in scotland shipbuilding and coal mining they were all falling victim to foreign

competition. they were all falling victim to foreign competition. so the obviously the trade unions wanted to protect their members jobs so the obviously the trade unions wanted to protect their members jobs and the industries they were working in but the government had got to the point where it regarded and the industries they were working in but the government had got to the point where it regarded regarded as an absolute majority and assesses the that they should take charge and regarded as an absolute majority in the city that they should take charge and they should decide which industries were going to survive because now and they should decide which industries were going to survive because now of course they were prepared to offer state money to do this but they weren't prepared its course they were prepared to offer state money to do this but they weren't prepared to offer as much of the state money to the mines as arthur scargill and others who

offer as much state money to the mines as arthur scargill and others wanted them to so that bill lots of industrial disputes and edward heath and his wanted them to so that bill lots of industrial disputes and edward heath and his cabinet well are not so much grew tired of this but got to the point where the cabinet well are not so much grew tired of this but got to the point where they thought with one short sharp shock they could kill off the power they thought with one short sharp shock they could kill off the power of the trade unions and the general election of 1984 was meant to do the of the trade unions and the general election of 1984 was meant to do that with what happened then was a hung parliament so nobody really got what they wanted that what happened then was a hung parliament so nobody really got what they wanted but this wasn't an election

you think but as johnson's and for the shop or do you think it but this wasn't an election you think but as johnson's and for the shop or do you think he's gambling correctly and manipulating his election well gambling correctly and manipulating his election. well certainly the lesson of those 2 previous examples of 900 only the lesson of those 2 previous examples of 923 months or so before shows that things don't always go the what 3 months or so before shows that things don't always go the way that the government expects them to and has calculated that they will way that the government expects them to and has calculated that they will now this time we we don't really know we've had no real test now this time we we don't really know we've had no real tests of what public opinion about this well

the breaks a deal has been reached yes of what public opinion about this well the breaks a deal has to be reached but the prospective breaks it deal is and in many ways it looks rather good but the prospective breaks it deal is and in many ways it looks rather a poor deal i mean. a party says it's brilliant but not many other people agree poor deal i mean. a party says it's brilliant but not many other people to greet so i think because of the lack of evidence i think pub eat so i think because of the lack of evidence i think public opinion will be very volatile and more than usually take opinion will be very volatile and more than usually it would depend on the way the campaign goes i mean campaigns are full of x.e. it would depend on the way the campaign goes i mean campaigns are full of accidents

are expected events and we still are either we still have the unexpected events and we still aiel we still have people in europe who don't we should specifically well we have the european commission people in europe who don't which is particularly well we have these. the european commission i'm assured by the a who seem to be taking a dim view of the whole thing i think that mission i'm assured by the a who seem to be taking a dim view of the whole thing i think there's an awful lot couldn't all go off on couldn't go between. would mean a do not sound but deception 100 and hope at the situation in scotland michael for i hope i will have an equal year to live in peace. and shouldn't enter play with the school that it is constitutional just quest it's just as well i think it is that well if i think i'll get to see india and never go to see anything but a good result for the s.n.p.

who lost out last time thing but it's a good result for the s.n.p. who lost out last time and went down from 56 to 35 seats but this time i would expect them went down from 56 to 35 seats but this time i would expect them to regain most if not all of those seats and i think to regain most if not all of those seats and i think there's 2 reasons for this i mean the 1st one is that's i think nicholas sturgeon has quite subtly without going over the top can't there's 2 reasons for this i mean the 1st one is that it's i think nicholas sturgeon has quite subtly without going over the top kept the brew bubbling. independents. it's the brew bubbling. independents for these last 3 years you know plenty of marches printed demonstrations for these last

3 years you know plenty of marches printed demonstrations plenty of him sudden there weeks about this and that so are they you know the trip the 20 of him sudden the weeks about this and that so are they you know the truth the true. they're all raring to go so you can expect a very enthusiast to campaign troops are already going to go so you can expect a very enthusiast campaign. but the same time the you'll be the act. but the at the same time the you'll be the actual object the purpose of the election is to decide about brecht sexual object the purpose of the election is to decide about brecht sets and that then awakens the original acts and that then awakens the original s.n.p. idea that because scotland voted so heavily in favor s.n.p.

idea that because scotland voted so heavily in favor of remain at the european referendum this gives us an for a remain at the european referendum this gives us a mandate to go again for independence even if the mandate to go again for independence even if the the attention of the u.k. is riveted on something else so i think at the end the attention of the u.k. is riveted on something else so i think at the end we'll get to the positive results from the point of view the s. and p. will get a big increase in swill get to the positive results from the point of view the s. and p. will get a big increase in seats and we'll get a mandate for a new independence represents and we'll get a mandate for a new independence referendum now the question then is whether barr is if he wins

the election and of now the question then is whether baris if he wins the election will grant that that referendum which the answer i think is no will grant so that that referendum which the answer i think is no. or whether there's going to be some other combination of parties through which it might be a church or whether there's going to be some other combination of parties through which it might be achieved and does that mean the the s.n.p. staking everything on a and does that mean the the s.n.p. staking everything on a another hung parliament and being able to exempt influence to secure the another hung parliament and being able to exempt influence to secure the the sections theft the studs and wishes in order to decide to fire the sections theft the odds of that in wishes in order to decide to fire another scottish referendum well i think in

practical terms that's the only way it can come another scottish referendum well i think in practical terms that's the only way it can come you would have to have a minority labor government dependent on me as you would have to have a minority labor government dependent on the s. and p. not necessarily in coalition but dependent for certain matches of m p you know not necessarily in coalition but dependent for certain matches on the s.n.p. members of the house of commons and then the condition of that supporting the s.n.p. members of the house of commons and then the condition of that support would be that jeremy corbyn would permits and the other sort would be that job because in would permits and other independence referendum now he's already said that he's not willing to do that but let's have dependents referendum now he's already said that he's not willing to do that but let's just wait and see what the outcome of the election is i mean it may be that jeremy corbyn if you just wait and see what the

outcome of the election is i mean it may be that jeremy corbyn if he wants to be prime minister i'm not entirely sure if you will be prime minister won't really have no choice but to be prime minister are not entirely sure if you will to be prime minister won't really have no choice. final question michael fry you are an unusual beast in scottish politics and that you're a final question michael fry you're an unusual beast in scottish politics and that you are a free market supporter of scottish independence one change as a free market supporter of scottish independence what changes you would you like to see and how the independence argument is deployed well as you would you like to see and how the independence argument 1 is deployed well i don't think i had a referendum on head of the actual achievement of independence there's my don't think i had a referendum a head of the actual achievement of independence there's much chance of changing the policies of the s.n.p.

i mean not sure the their 2nd chance of changing the policies of the s.n.p. i mean not sure the they're set in stone but they certainly have a heavy majority is in the conferences but stone but they certainly have they have you majorities in the conferences but you know the real world awaits out there and the real world out you know the real world awaits out there and the real world is composed of free markets i'm afraid and if scotland wishes to participate is composed of free markets on trade and if scotland wishes to participate in the international economy then free markets is the only way to go in the international economy then free markets is the only way to go michael fry from ed miller thank you very much indeed joining us michael fry from ed miller thank you very much indeed. join us after the break where our panel of political pundits will unstick

questions on where the party to the brink where our panel of political pundits what the questions are where the party stunned us a still a tease. you stunned us a still a tease. during the dotcom bubble. during the dot com bubble there was a lot of problems with c.e.o.'s and insiders dumping small there was a lot of problems with c.e.o.'s an insider dumping stock right after the i.p.o. there should be a lock up period to force right after the i.p.o. there should be a lock up period to force people keep people to stay on for at least 6 months or

a year to make sure the staple keep people to stay on for at least 6 months or a year to make sure this thing gets out of the gate without too many problems here in this era and gets out of the gate without too many problems here in this era that we work being a primary example the founder insider was it that we work being a primary example the founder insider was able to dump almost a $1000000000.00 before you're the i.p.o. able to dump almost a 1000000000 dollars before the i.p.o. . cooked a dish was supposed to. cook the dish was supposed to go to what was it not something to linger some of it's just. what you're looking if so what was it gets up to look at some of its existence. what you're looking is no no.

no. see i'm too yes swinging with regional shall proceed. seem to yes swinging with each notional proceeding. looked at with a showing of the bread which it was going to. look at without a showing of the bread which it was going to do in the church. do you think it will show. you this and so do. you think i'm sure. you have the same sort of. boat of shipping. you up and most of the book that both of shipping. you ever knew most of the book is the work of the books in your book that still missing notes i don't know what to do will work at the post and you will still lose you know i don't know what the boy.

or. if it was the latest news in the press. stuff boys and it was the latest news in the us. boys and all right so you had to put. a little all right so you have put on a. little lyricists through the summer in the story of the soulful. lyricist through the summer in the story of the soulful. welcome back as a run is light not for the christmas election race the best people welcome back as a run is light not for the christmas election race. the best people to mark your card are our panel of pundits peter or knows more about the in

a while to mark your card are our panel of pundits peter or knows more about the inner workings of the tory party than any other commentator while lembit orpik is a former president of the tory party than any other commentator while lembit orpik is a former presidential candidate of the po democrats they are both in conversation with alex central counted it out in the pool democrats they are both in conversation with alex so what about the circumstances of this general election being so what about the circumstances of this general election being called a bit of a pantomime isn't it i mean and monday the house of commons solemnly called it a pantomime isn't it i mean and monday the house of commons solemnly throws it back in the prime minister's face and ensures the ever degree is we're going to have the election after throws it back in the prime minister's face and ensures the ever degree is we're going to have the election after all hope of the circumstances of

the selection being called well i sort of think it was needful hope that the circumstances of the selection being called well i sort of think it was needed and then whether or not this one of the circumstances i think we needed to have this is i mean whether or not this whatever the circumstances i think we needed to have this out is of the everything that got blocked and now we're going to have out is a big everything that got blocked and now we're going to have the most momentous general election of modern british history most momentous general election of modern british history. probably the last 100 years is going to be an election which will be more brutal probably of the last 100 years it's going to be an election which will be more brutally for my purse sides and more unpredictable because you go for passively for my purse sides and more unpredictable because you got 4 passes or more got

a great picture. but the big one minute. or the prime minister surely. getting thing we elect and the election in them. have been a huge humiliation today the 31st should have been his day of a total and you know when we're not today the 31st should have been his day of a total and you know what we're not out of the european union after all and he's not dead that it's true that of the european union after all and he's not dead that it's true that joe swenson's tactics the leader of the lib dems baffled me because i think that joe swenson's tactics the leader of the lib dems baffled me because i think that she's after a referendum and she's given mr johnson and the election she's after a referendum and she's given mr johnson and the election nevertheless are all kinds of problems for the british prime minister there's the brits it nevertheless there

are all kinds of problems for the british prime minister there's the brits it party which is going to fight it i think that's the signals we're getting party which is going to fight it i think that's the signals we're getting because of his deal and so he's going to lose how much 10 percent of the voters were because of his deal and so he's going to lose how much 10 percent of the voters which would not revoke conservative i don't know as one of the many questions which would not revert conservative i don't know as one of the many questions. why is that there are massive issues about his integrity. and likewise that there are massive issues about his integrity he's a man who keeps on making broken promises and telling lies it's a big problem for british prime minister into that will a man who keeps on making broken promises and telling lies it's a big problem for british prime minister into that election is not trust trusted

i'm not so sure action is not trust trusted i'm not so sure of the result that i have a little lot the liberal democrats surely if stolen more of the result i have a little lot the liberal democrats surely if stolen a march in terms of what the s.n.p. has stolen a march on the labor party by forced option to live with the s.n.p. has stolen a march on the the labor party by forcing the selection term extent in an expedient way they have just once and wanted a legless election turn extent in an expedient way they have just once and wanted an election they've made a calculation they think they can gain seats in remain sympathetic areas and they've made a calculation they think they can gain seats in remain sympathetic areas she's probably right but there's a bigger mistake here and we've just been discussing she's probably right but there's a bigger mistake here and we've just been discussing that he's more or less squandered

the opportunity for a referendum in preference to sing that he's more or less squandered the opportunity for a referendum in preference to a general election the general election will be the referendum and if boris johnson does well and if the lib dems don't make much impact there it's assumed labor's kies to a general election the general election will be the referendum and if boris johnson does well and if the lib dems don't make much impact there that's assumed labor's kind of abstaining on bracks at the moment then that's the end of remain that seemed of abstaining on the moment then that's the end of remain not see. and any prospect of rerunning this debate now in chess you play the end of any prospect of rerunning this debate now in chess you play not one move ahead but about 5 moves ahead it seems to me boris johnson has done that because not one move ahead but about 5 moves ahead it seems to me boris johnson has done that because by the beginning of this week he couldn't lose either he got his deal through he got as

a lex by the beginning of this week he couldn't lose either he got his deal through he got as election decision through or the public would be on his side because he was prevented action decision through or the public would be on his side because he was prevented as it turns out he's got exactly what he wanted a breck's that based election where his it turns out he's got exactly what he wanted a breck's it based election where his only real problem is the exit party i definitely opposition parties for office the only real problem is the exit party i definitely opposition parties ross has a deal on the specters the as they could have done for the committee stage has a deal on the specters the as they could have done for the committee stages of amendments in the house of commons pointing out its limitations it's inconsistent jews and of amendments in the house of commons pointing out its limitations its inconsistency is they try to go back to the chess analogy alex he's had then they

tried to go back to the chess analogy alex he's had them in check for move after move after move actually boris has had everybody else on them in check for move after move after move actually boris has had everybody else on the back 1st so i think he's caused those winsome to make a tactical mistake for the reasons that 1st so i think he's caused those winsome to make a tactical mistake for the reasons i've just explained and he's absolutely cornered the labor party you don't want just explained and he's absolutely cornered the labor party you don't want. election for love nor money because they feel that they're too riven and the $2.00 have standard election for love nor money because they feel that they're too riven and the $2.00 have staining on this because the north their supporters are very pro brack said in the south their program maintaining on this because the north their supporters are very pro back said in the south their program main the real lives is here are probably going to be the

labor party and against my guest will be in the real lives here are probably going to be the labor party and against my guest will be the tories so the been there simply the liberals both thought they could make gate see the tories so the win the s.n.p. the liberals both thought they could make gate. them there for the logic in the election but might end up with them there for the logic in the election but might end up with abolished or some of a comfortable majority and 5 years of abolished or some of a comfortable majority and 5 years of punditry do you think it's just cut and dried to start from johnson or do you think your selection will partly do you think it's just cut and dried to start from johnson or do you think the selection of a love hate blacks have many twists and turns i think mr mr because of hate blacks have many twists and turns i think mr mr pic is an interesting analysis he may be right but that's this consider the conservatives again is an interesting analysis

he may be right but that's there's consider the conservatives are going to lose their seats in scotland they're going to lose quite a lot of seats in the south to the lose their seats in scotland they're going to lose quite a lot of seats in the south to the lib dems possibly include the oxbridge constituency occupied by the lib dems possibly include the oxbridge constituency occupied by the prime minister seriously forecasting the prognosis for themself is in danger of having the lower prime minister seriously forecasting the prime minister themself is in danger of having the right. i think he is i think they're going to be they're going to lose seats in london are going to lose seats in the i think he is i think they're going to be they're going to lose seats in london are going to lose seats in the southwest they're going to lose seats in scotland the question then that southwest they're going to lose seats in scotland the question then that whether that the mythical working class vote the brics that whether that the mythical

working class vote the brics it votes in concert up in the northeast and in the midlands they're going to cut in concert up in the northeast and in the midlands they're going to come over abandon labor and go on to the conservatives let's see it's a moped abandon labor and go on to the conservatives let's see it's a massive gamble and since we're being followed by i beg to differ mr it's a massive gamble. to have been followed by i beg to differ mr obama because as far as i see it we overestimate part hold on because as far as i see it we overestimate party loyalty at the moment and underestimate the power of bracks it lots of formally don't see the loyalty at the moment and underestimate the power of bracks it lots of formula down seats are really pro bracks it especially in

a london there will be an uplift are really pro bracks it especially in a london there will be an uplift for their dams i think particularly as you say in the southwest but by and large the great risk for the dams i think particularly as you say in the southwest but by and large the great rich pickings here are in the north of england for the conservatives where the labor party it's pickings here are in the north of england for the conservatives where the labor party really need to look pro bracks it to keep that vote in but the big flying the really need to look pro bracks it to keep that vote in but the big flying you won't win. boris johnson is nice of ross in the ranks of party if he doesn't do a deal then i took the 3 with him and for boris johnson is now a surprise in the ranks of party if he doesn't do a deal then i took the 3 with you on this then he's got 10 percent as a whole says to fortune i personally on this then he's got 10 percent as a hoss's to fortune i personally think he has to have a backdoor chance with nice of her r.'s then he's all set but i think he has to

have a back door chance with nice of her r.'s then he's all set but somebody else might remain on the boss's police. caught up in the lust or something else might rain on the boss is probably not as germy caught up in the last election of every single political commentator under-estimated call been every single political commentator under-estimated call bins ability as the campaigner he cannot be that the best or even his ability as the campaigner he will not be the the best or even mediocre parliamentary leader but as a campaign of the last let's be clear shortened to the mediocre parliamentary leader but as a campaign of the last let's be clear shorten the reason it absolutely and i think that i don't necessarily submit absolutely and i think that i don't necessarily share your assumption they're going to abstain or breaks in the hope i

don't know what the labor party share your assumptions are going to abstain or breaks in the hope i don't know what the labor party position is it's all related or that would guess they will back a referee or the position is it's all related or if that would guess they will back a referendum that's what they seem to be who have been moving towards in other words you're going to have their gayness and that's what they seem to be who have been moving towards in other words you're going to have they're going to soak up quite a lot of remain averts their gains i think that's soak up quite a lot of remain averts their gains i think that's the. they will they will risk than organ birds i don't see how they can just sit on the fence they will they will respond over birds i don't see how they can just sit on the fence rail at the judge or the election problem that is if they go folk referendum that sash lee been throughout the job or the election probably that is if they go folk referendum that sash lee been superseded by the real referendum which is the general election if

you really are obsessed with remain seated by the real referendum which is the general election if you really are obsessed with remain you vote there dan if your obsessive black set you vote tory or maybe blacks a party but they're damned if you're obsessive black set you vote tory or maybe blacks a party the labor party so visibly splits with and leader who's jump the labor party so visibly splits with leader who's jumped both ways of self i don't think they've got a strong message or you convince them that this will be both ways of self i don't think they've got a strong message or you convince them that this will be an assembly going to be a christmas election you know we should all be watching all it's a wonderful life a little bit stella going to be a christmas election you know we should all be watching all it's a wonderful life. will be watching political debates but are you convinced as we will be watching political debates but are you convinced it's going to stay as a black selection well i think it will do because of the fact that the state has

a black selection well i think it will do because of the fact that boris johnson's got the dream ticket here nothing's really been formally agreed if that boris johnson's got the dream ticket here nothing's really been formally agreed if it had all been done and dusted the 3rd meeting wallace and then we could talk about the health service and of the us but we're not all been done and dusted the 3rd reading while us and then we could talk about the health service and of the us but when your biggest suit spoiler starts and not to have this deal through the commons because august suits spotless georgeson not to have this deal through the commons because it was. still be to be decided that the election suits for parties boris johnson as still be to be decided that the election it suits 4 parties boris johnson as a brick city here to some extent nicer for us you can why give the tory dog if he gets it right the bracks it's here to some extent nicer for us you can why give the tory dog if he gets it right the lib dems who will make some more this gains as

remain as the s. and paper cause the lib dems who will make some modest gains as remain as the s.m. pay because they've got their agenda the one party this doesn't suit is the labor party and that's where they've got their agenda the one party this doesn't suit is the labor party and that's where the cannibalization of votes will take place and i think that they'll really hammer edge to the cannibalization of votes will take place and i think that they'll really hammer edge to the tory advances and maybe turn extent the lead them and vantage of people you know the you know the tory advances and maybe to an extent the live demo bondage of people you know the inner workings of the tory party more than just about them in the depart walking's of the tory party more than just about them. their departure or or more of. the off the tory wise heads it's has to be solved a bit sore still this weekend with us this week philip hammond this week because

test every bit as we're trying to philip hammond desperately trying to stop an election appealing for everybody to grow up and be cooled down because that wasn't what open election appealing for everybody to grow up and be cooled down because that wasn't likely to happen but nonetheless what is that going to do to the balance of the conservative party likely to happen but nonetheless what is that going to do to the balance of the conservative party and are there some people who are very worried about that i think that unlike the late are there some people who are very worried about that i think that. unlike labor which is technically united the conservative party let's not forget has actually power which is technically united the conservative party let's not forget has actually split it's very interesting to see how they're going to conduct themselves in this election because he split it's very interesting to see how they're going to conduct themselves in this election because that's sending a message to middle of the road voters that the conservative party has that sending

a message to middle of the road voters that the conservative party has may have become a federal party whose election campaign is going to be repeat may have become a federal party whose election campaign is going to be run by i'm assuming it will we will find out one of the questions dominick cummings this fund by i'm assuming it will we will find out one of the questions dominick cummings this federal. known the man around vote lead hates conservative federal. known the man around vote lead hates conservatives it's worth bearing in mind he hates the conservative party want to break up britain you know for that of that it's worth bearing in mind he hates the conservative party want to break up britain you know no fault of the dog in its coverage under defining what he is this person going to run and all of this coverage under the filing why is this person going to run in other words a conservative party is ripe for a run if it is run by cummings who will run it as

a revolution other words a conservative party is right for him rather it is run by cummings who will run it as a revolutionary party which wants basically to destroy the institutions of the british state including party which wants basically to destroy the institutions of the british state including the rule of law the 8 parliament. and that's quite interesting the rule of law 8 parliament. and it's quite interesting that that party which is not the conservative party i recognise the best things that that party which is not the conservative party. recognizer bever had the honor of reporting in 30 years of political correspondent generally speaking in service of a had the honor of reporting in 30 years of political correspondent generally speaking good service we've got another lot this lot run by cummings with these creature johnson is what we call another lot this lot run by cummings with these creature jumps somewhat but it isn't a marketable revival for boarders johnson in only

a few weeks ago the the supply markable revival for boarders johnson in only a few weeks ago the supreme court declares rules 30 that acted unlawfully misled of my leaving court declares rules 30 that acted unlawfully misled her majesty the queen and that was heavy odds on favorite to romp home an election 2 points to the queen and that was heavy odds on favorite to romp home an election 2 points here well bill sets do not found it a storm and i have never thought seen well bill sets do not found it a storm and i've never thing burst on some look like he's waving he's got a game plan actually i'm pretty impressed with it his narrative is concerned look like he's waving he's got a game plan actually i'm pretty impressed with it his narrative is consistent that's really vital in the election secondly you're right there's an awful lot of feral accessed and that's really vital in the election secondly you're right there's an awful lot of feral activity going on pet feral creatures don't staff

they rip apart the weak and at the moment to be going on pet feral creatures don't staff they rip apart the weak and at the moment there is weakness but not in the conservative party i think i will go to reassemble it for this point there is weakness but not in the conservative party i think i will go to reassemble it various points and this campaign stuff to get others just being fired in this campaign but the stuff to get others just being fired at the present moment 1st lame but who's to sitting pretty and who's going to alter the present moment 1st limit who is through sitting pretty. and who's got it all to do i predict overall majority for the conservatives and the sun do i predict overall majority for the conservatives and the size of that majority is dependent on one binary question does he do a deal eyes of the majority is dependent on one binary question does he do a deal with the backs of party night or for ours or not if he does the deal big

majority if he doesn't pull with the ranks of party nitrile for hours or not if he does the deal big majority if he doesn't he'll scrape through what sort of shape could that deal take them in the hope he'll scrape through what sort of shape could that deal take them in. the off of the breaks or by cut off from seats leaving aside the temptation of giving one person a what do you offer the brakes apply cut off from seats leaving aside the temptation of giving one person a period the other part of this is to use the bricks that part is the attack berridge the other part of this is to use the bricks at parties the attack dogs with the awkward squad the people peter mentioning before who have dogs with the awkward squad the people of peter mentioning before who have left the conservative party put the bricks of party in there to smash that left the conservative party put the bricks of party in there to smash their chances of winning and then elsewhere get the better party either to not stand chances of winning and then

elsewhere get the better party either to not stand or to really go easy on the conservatives or what about it peter as we start the race when who is going to keep or to really go easy on the conservatives or what about it peter as we start the race when who's going to get their leader and who just was going to be there at the finish i think that boras towards their leader and who just was going to be there at the finish i think that boris johnson will take the early lead i think it's a very rocky path he has to. take the early lead i think it's a very rocky path the. has this as the charter and i would i predict a hung parliament and i think as the charter and i would i predict a hung parliament and i think that a hung parliament will therefore be followed by a referendum that 101 percent. will therefore be followed by a referendum because that will be the 2nd way of solving it so that the people's vote campaign move not had too much to cheer over the last offering it so that the

people's vote campaign move not had too much to cheer over the last few days that the 1000000 people at the rally recently knew watching their son you'll become the next few days that the 1000000 people at the rally recently knew watching their son you'll become the new pin up boy of people's fort worth bryce that you pin up boy of people's fort worth bryce. lever figures over. at last lever figures over. at last the bricks to a new mill it will now be a christmas election which the site's britons you get the bricks to newman it will now be a christmas election which the site's britain's european future so if the tories when will be right and if liberal win will be n p in future so if the tories win will be right and if liberal when b.n. but things are hardly that straightforward in reality if the tories when we still

can but things are hardly that straightforward in reality if the tories when we still can't be sure that the current agreement won't break down at the next stage of negotiation of a treaty and be sure that the current agreement won't break down at the next stage of negotiation of a trade deal at the end of next and the other word and if they could stick still b.c. 80 or delete it and other words they could still be a delayed nor do brick sit no deal is better than a bad deal as tories might city or bricks it no deal is better than a bad deal as transfinite tories might see unfortunately for all those who want to be short of brecht's it once and for all be unfortunately for all those who want to be short of brecht's it once and for all the withdraw the payment is only stage $1.00 of a process almost without ain't meanwhile if labor were to prevail in this yuletide pool then they would negotiate another withdrawal the payment is only stage $1.00 of a process almost without ain't meanwhile if labor were to prevail in this yuletide

pool then they would negotiate another european deal and put it to a referendum however it is not then clearly due to pm deal and put it to a referendum however it is not then clear whether the new labor government itself would then campaign for brics it or for a main or whether a new labor government itself would then campaign for brics it or for remain the obvious difficulties in explaining this policy may be why the main opposition party is the obvious difficulties in explaining this policy may be why the main. opposition party has not been exactly gagging to enter this winter election campaign then of course have not been exactly gagging to enter this winter election campaign then of course there is the electoral impact of the research at liberal democrats and the high flying s.n.p. there is the electoral impact of the resurgent liberal democrats and the high flying s.n.p. these pro european parties could potentially when enough seats to pour rain on

board these pro european parties could potentially when enough seats to pour rain on boris johnson's parade not to mention now you're waiting to pounce on any semblance of johnson's parade not to mention now you're waiting to pounce on any semblance of a break that betrayal boris johnson may find don't like to reason maybe for him of a break that betrayal boris johnson may find out like to visit me before him that's an opinion poll lead is no guarantee of untrammeled election success that's an opinion poll lead is no guarantee of untrammeled election success and that's historian michael fried and minded alex the one consistent feature of and that's historian michael fried and minded alex the one consistent feature of winter polls of the last century is that they did not turn out as expected at least by the winter polls of the last century is that they did not turn out as expected at least by those who called them the tory still start as heavy favorites and few come to us

who called them. the tories still start as heavy favorites and few commentators give labor much of a chance but then just about everybody thought of jeremy corbyn last time to just give labor much of a chance but then just about everybody thought of jeremy corbyn last time round and just about everybody was wrong all the it's important to pull suggesting right and i'm just about everybody was wrong all the it's important to pull suggest that our political pundits may have to reconvene ere long to fully explain the next turn and that our political pundits may have to reconvene ere long to fully explain the next turn in the short to break that they'll examine how the campaign is going when it comes to this and they do it to breaks it they'll examine how the campaign is going when it comes to this election we see as through a glass very darkly indeed and oh will be collection we see as through a glass very darkly indeed and oh will become clear only when it is finally over

next week we show him come clear only when it is finally over. next week we show how important cross party probably meant to work of fighting for key causes continued despite threats that suck or to cross party parliament to work of fighting for key causes is continued despite threats at sucking and all the political bandwidth the celebrated t.v. that might come tells us in and all the political bandwidth the celebrated t.v. that might tells us how that legislative breakthrough on animal rights is law was organized while most place how the legislative breakthrough on animal rights sees law was organized while most political commentators were transfixed by the break 6 up but until then from alex mean the commentators were transfixed by the break 6 up but until then from alex seen all of the show it's good bye for night and we hope to see you next week all at issue it's good bye for night and we hope to see you next to. you thank you
