Ahh - I see.
Not confused, I'm well aware of idiots on both side of the political divide and they all piss me off. Had enough of the petty bitching and infighting and the sooner we get rid of 'party politics' the better. It's all just petty back biting and blaming the other side, rather than 'let's see what we can do to make it better'.
To my mind the only way forward is with 650 independent MPs.

She'd also bring a fresh racist mindset to the role which, it would seem, is okay if it's a Labour politician.seth plum said:
One improvement is that Abbott does not seem to have the 'hostile environment' kind of mindset that an evil Tory like May has.Big_Bad_World said:
So it's out of the realms of possibility that Diane 'Carol Vorderman' Abbott could do worse than Theresa May?ShootersHillGuru said:

Vince Cable should be having a long hard look in the mirror as well. Lib Dems should be on 25% plus with this abysmal Government and pathetic opposition.4

"MPs will vote on the UK's Brexit deal in the week beginning 14 January, Theresa May has told Parliament.kentaddick said:corbyn bottles no confidence vote.
Prime minister and the leader of the opposition are both gutless cowards.
The vote was due to be held last week but was put on hold after Theresa May admitted she was set to lose.
Announcing a new date, Mrs May said the EU had made it clear the Irish backstop was "not a plot to trap the UK" and urged MPs to see Brexit through.
Labour had threatened to force a confidence vote in the PM if she did not set a date for the vote".

She's played a blinder but perhaps for a different reason. She can't get more than 200 to support her WA so she will have to " reluctantly" allow MPs a free vote.letthegoodtimesroll said:I’m starting to think May has actually played a blinder, albeit not necessarily intentionally. The longer this process drags on, it’s beginning to look more likely the EU and the Euro are going to go into a meltdown. We could step in and propose a new type of EU to sort it out, a sort of common market...beats me why we didn’t just sign up for that in the first place,..
Revoke Article 50, no deal or a referendum are the options... and it appears that there's a majority for a People's vote.
Corbyn and Labour won't support the WA and they haven't got the numbers to win a no confidence. So perhaps they will go for a People's vote which is, of course, part of their policy.
There are plenty of other possible outcomes but this one might deliver a soft landing?
For those interested this piece in the Guardian talks to the policies of Sanders and Corbyn. https://theguardian.com/books/2018/dec/17/the-next-left-socialism-in-the-uk-and-the-us
We should all recognise that there's a broad spectrum and that many voters will not shift home immediately, even if it's actually in their interests. Corbyn and Labour were stuck on 26% back in 2016 and the combined Tory UKIP vote exceeded 55%. They've lost 10% in three years or five million votes!
Back in the 1990s New Labour toned down their message so as to attract the centre but we are in a very different situation today with centrists being hammered at the ballot box across Europe.0 -
