There will doubtless be lots of huffing and puffing but it won't change anything. Only a GE to choose who represents us really matters.

There's nothing on their website that explains what they will do once elected and when ask supporters on here they are equally clueless. They just want brexit, what happens after that ? Who cares....

That has zilch to do with whether you voted Leave or Remain. It is simply a fact. Have we switched to proportional representation then? Absolute slice Edited by ChrisGC (11 May 2019 1.26pm)

As a matter of interest to those that don't know the Brexit Party's biggest donor is our very own Jeremy Hosking I think that's right really, much as it was the case with UKIP. The Conservatives received a battering at the local elections and will certainly be on the receiving end of another one at the European elections. A party can only take on so much damage before it unites on something out of desperation.

'Researchers gave 11,225 volunteers psychological tests before the referendum and asked how they intended to vote. Results suggest that leavers tended to be less numerate, more impulsive and more prone to accept the unsupported claims of authoritarian figures'. We have seen this research before, and it couldn't be more true than in the instant rush to the brexit party, without any thought, by leavers. They weren't 'betrayed' they never had a clue in the first place.

Originally posted by DANGERCLOSE [Tweet Link] There's been plenty of silly, arrogant stuff from both the EU and the UK. The danger of taking this chaps approach is that a lack of any compromise will result in a pure remain or leave situation, and by the behaviour of the government I don't see the latter getting over the finishing line. Getting an imperfect deal over the line, at least results in leaving in some fashion and that can then be adjusted down the line. It also helps to adjust thinking to a point where many realise that the sky isn't going to collapse around them, hence making the idea of being outside of the EU more popular with the national as a whole. There is a danger in all of the current dithering and desire for a perfect and precise outcome that the moment is missed.
