Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 23-10-2019: Philippi

23rd October, 2019.


Yes: it’s pay day.

Or, at least, the day I get my benefit.

The only problem I have there, is that this month’s payment has been cut*: due to the only payment I’ve had from my last job.

The last one from them?

Gets to me the day before Halloween.

At least, in theory: I have my doubts about it.

That last payment, though, have a knock on effect on next month’s benefit payments: which means November is going to be tough.

We’ll have to see what happens.

Hmmm … 

Are you following the news about Brexit?

Yesterday in Parliament saw MPs approve the Government’s deal with the EU … but vote against the three day time table.

With the net result that … 

Well … 

We have a bloody mess in the House of Commons.

Personally?

I’m hoping the EU approves some sort of delay.

One that allows either a general election: or — my preferred choice — a second referendum.

That sounds like it may go ahead.

On the other hand?

I don’t know that the approval for an election will go ahead.

It seems the Government may have to trigger a Vote of No Confidence, in itself, in order for that to go through.

Going on current form?

I’d expect the Government to lose that …
