On Tuesday, British PM, Boris Johnson is to make another attempt for 12 December general elections notwithstanding MPs turning down his plan.

In previous attempts, two-thirds were required, however, the PM will publish a bill that would only require just a simple majority to be successful.

However, he would still need the full support of the SNP and Lib Dems for the bill to pass.

Labour said that Boris Johnson, the PM should not be trusted despite the prime minister telling MPs Parliament was “dysfunctional and could no longer keep this country hostage”.

Well short of the two-thirds majority the bill needed to be a success under the Fixed-Term Parliaments Act, the government’s election motion was backed by Commons by 299 to 70.

Along with the SNP and DUP, a greater majority of Labour MPs refused to vote even as all Conservative MPs were in full support of the Motion. However, all but just one Dem MPs voted against it.

The prime minister officially accepted the European Union’s offer of an adjunct to the Brexit process to January 31st, then the vote came after.

The PM said the further three-month extension which he stood his ground was forced upon him by Parliament was “unwanted” according to the contents of a letter to EU officials.
