A good day for the Remainers. I foresee that the Brexit vote will be split between UKIP and the Farage party a god send for the mainstream politicians. It's a pity that the Brexit side is not more united. If they have any common sense they will do a deal not to fight each other in certain seats. I must admit, I didn't add a comment and I wasn't sure what to make of it. I fear that Farage may have gone down the Robert Kilroy Silk road of wanting to be front of centre at each and every moment.

I don't believe that any mainstream politician has argued for this and the Tory government does has a post Brexit immigration policy whether you agree with it is another matter Parliament should decide our immigration policy. For a Labour it may mean freedom of movement for others it may be based on skill sets or the requirements of the country at the time. I don't believe our immigration policy should be fixed it has to be flexible something that is impossible within the EU. People who argue for freedom of movement as a right are actually saying that they want their way and that any future government cannot change that policy. I don't believe that a current government should commit future parliaments and voters who may not yet be born to policies which may not be applicable at the time. Edited by Badger11 (12 Apr 2019 11.45am) I think future generations will be angry that our generation took away freedoms and rights we enjoyed with European unity, and despair at our prime minister playing populism with phrases like taking back control, and her hostile environment born out of the toxic tabloid agenda

Can't keep having it all ways ! What you think is total irrelevant its what the county thinks is what is important. Sorry your opinion is the minority.

Would be nice to see a head to head between the Brexit Party and the Independent Group. Part of the reason the European Parliament is so rubbish for the UK is down to the fact our largest block is UKIP, who didn't do anything. But Labour and the Tories were so split, they were also ineffective. No point remaining if we just propose to go back to the status quo either.

I would be very careful about donating £25 to greaseball Farage, or Johnson et al. One day you will sign in to a blank page. 'Fromage not Farage'

Predictably, Nigel Farage returns. I'd rather see a party consisting of pro Brexit Tories and other sensible right of centre candidates. Farage could fit there. A party to take substantial votes from both main parties and cast off any stigma about Far Right associations. I would vote for that. Well, I'm voting Ukip.....I'll always have time for Farage for his impact and 2016 but I see no reason to abandon Ukip and split the vote when they have been doing well. Sargon will be standing for Ukip in the probable upcoming EU elections. Edited by Stirlingsays (12 Apr 2019 8.06pm)

It is a move that won't help either win any seats but I suspect that this wagon is only designed for protest.
