Well not long now!

He certainly did not. They voted against labour for ignoring their wishes regarding the EU and compounding that by describing them as bigoted racists etc etc.
Many people would like to vote labour but feel it no longer represents them.

 

Hmmm, perhaps they need to learn that the enemy's enemy isn't necessarily their friend?

 

They both look like they've arrived on a coach trip to tour a jam rolly-polly factory.

 

But the alternative was to give approval for the direction "their" party was taking. In the longer term that would guarantee leaving them unrepresented for who knows how many years or even decades. The Labour Party needs to decide what it stands for rather than what it stands against.

 

I won't argue, but the problem is, they are just as unrepresented now.

 

When it turns into all pain for no gain, and people suddenly find what they thought was an imposition of rules was actually cheap freedom, compared with what it will end up costing them to have their cozy little corner.

Wont I laugh.

 

That's your opinion.

Some of us think differently but won't laugh when you're proved wrong, it's not worth it.

 

But they were already unrepresented, hence the protest vote!

 

But they were cutting there noses off to spite their faces, weren't they?

 

The alternative was...?

 

Exactly. If there had been some credible alternative perhaps the last general election might have had a different result. Unfortunately it seems a majority of voters didn't believe the "moon on a stick" policies they seemed to throw out every few days

Maybe the next election will have a different result if the labour party can get it's act together. It's there for the taking if they can come up with some decent policies and avoid a hard left leaning

 

I agree with Norris. The country needs a credible opposition party, whether Conservative or Labour.

The Lib Dems used to be quite a force around here until Jo Swinson decided that she could be the next PM and would also cancel Brexit.
Given their current MPs I wouldn't see them having any significance at all in the future, unlike the days of 'Cleggmania'.
