Labour supporters don't have a clue where the leader will stand where the party will stand and where just now the members stand.
Difficult isn't it.
Brexit should never have been called.
I don't recall a public demanding a referendum on the issue of Europe.
Anyone else remember a public crying out for this chaos?
I remember two politicians calling it.
Fist Mister Mirage them Cameron.


Brexit is obviously turning out to be a poisoned chalice to implement. Labour would do no better probably but Corbyn will be laughing his cock off if the Tory vote splinters to a ukip style entity. Dave got lucky on Indyref and rolled the dice again, wind the clock back we cannot.

Labour's National Executive make/amend policies, I believe, and not the leader.

Corbyn is playing the long-game. Simple as that.

That's why I separated out the leader.

“Ex-cabinet minister Justine Greening has become the first senior Tory to endorse a second Brexit referendum, in a major intervention where she branded Theresa May's Brexit plan the "worst of both worlds".

The former education secretary said Ms May's Chequer's proposals for a common rule book with the EU were a "fudge" and indicated that other senior Conservatives privately supported her calls for a fresh vote.“

Stephen Kinnock has just said (7:40pm) on BBC News that there are no major differences between the Conservatives and Labour on Brexit
Just "nuances"

Possibly even more so.
We are in a serious mess here.
No one has the bottle to stop this Brexit madness or it would seem a mandate to do so.
This country is destroying itself.
Would you want to invest here?


Whilst I agree with all of that I do have to think that some good must come out of this, but when??? It could be a very very long time coming

Another generation of no Tory majority will be the result. They had to wait 23 years for the slimmest. :gigglesnshit:

Name the last three Conservative majorities in elections. My reckoning is 1987, 1992 and 2015. Now minus 1992 from 2015 and one gets 23. I am well aware of your own distorted views of history, please stop acting like a scratched record. :gigglesnshit:
