Description
On Wednesday, a Conservative non-confidence motion was voted down by the other parties in the House of Commons. But it’s just the first of many to come this fall.

He explains how opposition days work, how the different parties will use them strategically and what all of this means for the possibility of a snap election. Questions? Comments? Ideas?
