I'm not looking that far ahead frankly. There are far bigger issues facing us than partisan party politics.

Agreed, we may have one huge vote before the next GE.

Meanwhile, back at Momentum HQ:

Corbynite group Momentum have decided not to take a position on Brexit before Labour conference, and will not whip delegates either way on any motion about a ‘people’s vote’.

Why so surprised? They don’t want to go completely against a people’s vote. Corbyn has said so since the ref.

They wouldn't be 'going against a people's vote' as it would simply be a democratic vote to accept the negotiated deal, or not.

As none of us have a clue what the deal is yet, we will need to be given proper information, facts that can be discussed and voted on.

Which is exactly why Leavers are so against it.

Who’d have guessed he would be as popular as he was? He served a purpose, yeah based on lies etc but it worked for a reason and burying our heads in sand about it isn’t going to help.
Momentum are a lot more in touch with public feelings/ needs than you realise.
