So you now admit a government hasn't been formed as per the rules?  And that it is dependent on the UDA saying publically that they will support the Tories?

No, I said she has formed her government in Westminster 
As for the DUP, I said that is a matter of when not if.

She's formed f all government as per the parliamentary procedures I linked to.  BF perfectly correct not to settle until the DUP officially agree confidence and supply.

Surely they have to settle now?

If they settle now with back odds of 1.16 available on May then that would just be mental.

jamesdean you are just one of those people who can't admit you're wrong.  Parliamentary procedure couldn't be clearer:

http://www.parliament.uk/about/how/elections-and-voting/general/hung-parliament/#jump-link-0

In order to form a Government, a party must be able to command a majority in the House of Commons on votes of confidence and supply. This majority can include support from other political parties, whether or not there is a formal coalition arrangement.

In a situation of no overall control the Government in power before the General Election gets the first chance at creating a government. If they cannot do so, the Prime Minister will resign.


Until the DUP formally agree to a confidence and supply arrangement, no government is formed.

btw if I could be sure that the market would be voided if there was another election, TM would be free money as Corbyn can't form a govt either

Dave, I'm entitled to my opinion just like you are. I don't think I'm wrong but if I was
then I'd quite happily say so. I think you're wrong. I personally think you're clutching
at straws. As said happy to agree to disagree..

It's fairly obvious that an agreement with DUP will be reached. The points under discussion are not deal-breakers.

Of course an agreement will be reached however it has to be formalised.Until that time the next Government is still in play.

Why would I be "clutching at straws"?.  I'm just telling you why Betfair aren't settling the market (and pointing out that you either lied or were lied to earlier in the thread).

Jes1981 - all thats gone on is that the 1922 committee haven't told her to resign.

When an agreement is reached it will be all over. Govt will then have an effective majority and be in a position to govern.

And they didn't suspend the market as you said they would hours ago, so someone lied.

Would quite like them to settle this as my now £25k Corbyn red is somewhat clogging up my ability to pile cash on other ways of buying money. She's been too long throughout, in my opinion and the always remote chance of her being unseated (she might have resigned but was effectively manacled to the job even had she wanted to) is now vanishing.

Unreserved support for PM at 1922 struck just the right tone and dealt with all substantial points. Party united behind her  - Nicholas Soames.

Likewise Fats.....Royal Ascot next week too. I don't know why but I got myself thinking it was to do with the Queens speech, but reading all the above, perhaps it's the "formal" announcement of a confidence & supply arrangements that's required.

Hmm, didn't see the BBC saying she'd nailed it. Did the article you read also say the Betfair PM After Election market was probably just about to be settled?

IIRC the exact words were "Theresay May meets back benchers and nailed it, then leaves to standing ovations from her MP'S"

Can't see it on the site but I wasn't being that serious so you don't need to hold your breath for an apology: sorry if I traduced you.
