Let's say, on November 17, 1990, Thatcher requests a snap dissolution for December 1st. Presumably the Tory leadership contest is cancelled as everyone moves onto a war footing. I see a Tory minority propped up by Unionists and some Liberals before the Gulf War helps boost the Tories, and a khaki election in April or May restores the Tories with a reduced majority of 30. Or would Kinnock, who got curbstomped 3.5 years earlier, be the new PM of a Lab minority government?
