The biggest two parties in Britain are apparently facing some massive challenges according to the paps.

The Tories are facing a leadership challenge, with election guru Lynton Crosby apparently planning to stab Theresa May in the back and installing Boris as PM.

Theresa May’s premiership has suffered a severe blow after reports emerged that Tory election-guru Sir Lynton Crosby is running a campaign to kill off her Brexit proposals.

Sir Lynton is said to have ordered allies to work with hardline Brexiteers in the European Research Group (ERG) of Tory MPs to bring Ms May’s ‘Chequers’ deal down, something that could well lead to her fall.

Many ERG members back Boris Johnson as a future leader, and with Sir Lynton also having run two successful mayoral campaigns for him, the strategist’s appearance now is seen as a sign of growing momentum behind the ex-foreign secretary’s ambitions.

It came as Ms May attempted to stiffen her support among Brexiteers – who think her plans will keep the UK too closely aligned with Brussels, by saying she will not be pushed around by the EU in negotiations and repeating her vow to deliver on the 2016 referendum.

Sir Lynton, who also advised Tory leaders in the 2015 election victory and last year’s shock poll when the Tories lost their majority, has sent a senior member of his firm CTF Partners to work with the ERG, The Sunday Times reported.

David Canxini will partner up with ex-Brexit minister Steve Baker, a key organiser in the Conservative Leave campaign ahead of the 2016 referendum.

The newspaper reports that one option is to revive the campaign group Change Britain, with some seeing it as possible future platform for a Mr Johnson leadership drive.

But senior Tory sources were said to have warned that Mr Johnson’s leadership ambitions were destabilising Brexit and could lead to it falling through altogether.

The Sunday Times also reported that PM’s aides have held talks with senior civil servants about whether to call a general election if a Brexit deal is rejected by MPs.

With Brussels demanding further compromise, and a significant number on her own benches set to vote the deal down, let alone Labour, the odds are stacking up against Ms May’s deal passing through parliament.

But the Prime Minister remained defiant and stood by her plan, writing in the Sunday Telegraph: “I will not be pushed into accepting compromises on the Chequers proposals that are not in our national interest.”

The PM also dismissed calls for a “People’s Vote” on the terms of withdrawal.

She said: “To ask the question all over again would be a gross betrayal of our democracy.”

The Independent has been running its own campaign for a Final Say referendum on whatever the outcome of Brexit is with almost three quarters of a million people having signed the petition.

Ms May also said Britain would get through a no-deal outcome and “thrive”.

But in the same newspaper high-profile Tory MP Nick Boles, who backed Remain at the referendum, came out against the Chequers deal.

He wrote that under current the plans, the UK faces “the humiliation of a deal dictated by Brussels”, which is treating the Chequers proposals as an “opening bid”

Whereas Labour is facing yet another no-confidence vote in Comrade Corbachev, and a party split when the moderates inevitably don't get their way because Momentum stuffed the ballots again.

THE LABOUR Party is in a fresh crisis after details emerged of a planned coup against Jeremy Corbyn via a vote of no confidence to aid a plot to form a new political party backed by opposition MPs.

Moderate MPs are hoping a no-confidence vote will help MPs feel safe in expressing their anger at the party’s leadership.

According to the Sunday Times, they hope the vote will give MPs the chance to see they are not alone in their frustrations and will give them the confidence to then quit the party and form a breakaway.

Shadow chancellor John McDonnell has said he is "worried and saddened" at the prospect of a split in Labour.

Mr McDonnell told the New Statesman: "Yes, I think there are people who are willing to leave the party.

"I think I'm saddened by that. I really am saddened and I'm disappointed."

The plan to undermine the Labour leader is understood to have originated from MPs’ frustration at Mr Corbyn’s failure to tackle accusations of anti-Semitism within the party.

In July, Labour refused to back to full definition of anti-Semitism as set out by the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance, causing outrage among party members.

Since then dozens of allegations of anti-Semitism have plague Labour.

Referring to concerns over anti-Semitism, Brexit and MPs' careers, Mr McDonnell said: "If those are the issues that people want to split on, these are all issues which can be dealt with within the party.

"And I don't see them as fundamental issues that would encourage a split because there are opportunities for people not just to express their views but actually sometimes to win the argument as well.

"So, I don't understand why there is this sort of pre-emptive move to split off.”

On Thursday veteran Labour MP Frank Fields resigned the Labour whip, after accusing the leadership of presiding over a party which is becoming a "force for anti-Semitism".

Following his decision, Ilford South MP Mike Gapes, who has served for 26 years, also threatened to quit.

Speaking out against the culture within Labour under Mr Corbyn, Mr Gapes said: “I am agonising every day about the situation and the state of the Labour Party.

“I will make my own decision about how I deal with this in my own time.”

MPs last triggered a no-confidence vote against Mr Corbyn after the June 2016 EU referendum.

On that occasion the left-wing leader brushed aside a 172 to 40 defeat, insisting his mandate from grassroots members was more important.

In a plea to those considering quitting the party, Mr McDonnell said: “I think that open door is always there to prevent that happening, because any split is automatically damaging."

Even John 'I <3 the IRA' McDonnell is shitting bricks at this thought, so you know it's imminent.

HEIL BORIS.

Seriously, you britfags, get rid of May. If we, your prison colony, can get rid of our useless globalist, you guys can too.
 
I hold no hope for this ever penetrating the bureaucracy.

The only part of the UK that's going to thrive will be London when they pull all funding from the rest of the UK to keep it on life support.

My farmer relatives are preparing for doomsday right now since we've known for decades that they don't give a shit about anything outside of that shithole.

So what you're saying is 'Nuke London'?

As I can get behind that...

That or Citizen Smithing it and through comedic events somehow stealing a Scorpion tank.

Except this time, Parliament will be open...
 
Queen Lizzie needs to woman up and seize power already. I'm sure most Britons would rather have her as absolute monarch than the jokers in power now I'm sure.

Nuking London sounds like an attractive option until you realize that its citizens would just hide in the Underground and scuttle back up like cockroaches once the danger is over.

Well he does write a good article, plus he’s well known thanks to being a Have I Got News For You host and his dad being on I'm a Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here.

I guess if he does become leader at least we’ll get Trump like shenanigans and ensuing salt.
 
But you can still vote for dogcatcher or something. Besides all democracy is just a popularity contest between leople who don't know much but think they know everything against those who don't know much but just revel in it.
 
Goddamn it, must be the work of that fiendish villain Reverse Guy-Fawkes and his antimatter gunpowder plot!

At least when they're fighting each other they tend to leave the rest of us to get on with it. The UK is more stable, together and productive during their long summer hiatus than any other time of year. Bunch of twats.

Rees-Mogg would be preferable but Boris is okay too, he’s a bit capricious though.

Rees-Moog, from what I know about UKpol (which isn't a whole lot), is that he is sort of like my personal Auspol favorite Tony Abbott.
I think the capricious Boris option is what people need though. He's a loud mouth, but when you have the media screaming over the top of everyone that the liberal/progressive way is the only way, I think then that the Trumps and Boris's may be the only option.
I mean you have Sadick Khan getting more international media attention than May and that's scary. But it's only because he's /their guy/ and May is just a middle of the road nothing yes-woman.
