The Brexit Party may be able to garner some leave votes in Labour areas but not enough to win any seats from Labour (imo).

The big thing for me is for the Labour Party not to let this GE become a proxy second referendum, and hammer home that the Tories are destroying this country Bexit or not. The NHS, education, foodbanks, universal credit, austerity, these are the issues that will win Labour seats.

 

That’s all well and good but you have to think that all those leave voters who don’t vote in GE’s but did turn out for the referendum will do so again. I think it will become a proxy second referendum like you said, and there’s not much that can be done about it. 

 

The majority of long-standing Labour voters will vote Labour. The ‘once in a lifetime voters’ so to speak that were fooled by the Leave campaign lies will come out again and vote for the Tories or the Brexit party based on that one issue. The media will see to that. 

 

Hopefully enough younger people that weren’t old enough to vote in the referendum have been inspired and energised to vote Labour but I’m not convinced.

Looks like the Tory rebels have told BoJo to fuck off and the opposition parties have agreed not to back a GE. Let's see what the Labour rebels do later. Hoey, Stringer and Flint are cunts and I wouldn't trust them not to fuck this up.

She has said she will vote with the government. Also did not rule out standing as an independent/Brexit party candidate at the next election.

Corbyn and his team can't help themselves, talking about an election in his post-meeting statement. An election will solve fuck all. He needs to wind his neck in and not let Johnson off the hook, the sheer lunacy of an election now will see us end up with Johnson in office for another 5 years. Absolute Muppet.

Fuck her, her voting record is atrocious for a ‘labour’ MP. 

 

Although I’m sure she’s previously said she wouldn’t stand at the next GE.

Amazes me the amount of people who still love Farage in the UK. But that is the crux of the problems we face in the political World we live in these days. Most people aren't arsed about it until some Nazi money grabbing wank stain like Farage comes along and aligns himself to their views.

In fairness I think his popularity is more media driven, I don’t know anyone who can stand him

He legitimately just said “I will never surrender” in the commons.

 

A young toff’s wet dream brought to life.

 

Just marvellous stuff. What a dignified nation we have become.

Thats all he can sell his ideology to the working class who he needs to vote tory. Appeal to the great old war sprit. Unfortunately the thick racist twats will lap it up.

Enough do mate. Reality may dawn come election time when FPTP stops Farage and whichever shit party he is in fails to get too many seats if any at all, but don't kid yourself about the level of support the wanker has.

I'd expect many more Churchill type references over his tenure at 'House Mordor.' The cunt is just playing to the crowds who love reminiscing about shitty times long past, easy to do when you weren't the poor bastard stuck in a Trench with bullets flying over your head. Probably why these fuckers are fine with war as long as they ain't involved themselves.

Imagine, an Opposition leader talking about getting rid of a Government with no majority. 

 

Worra cunt.

Churchill was one of of the prime movers of post-war European unity and his grandson is an MP who opposes Johnson's No-Deal.

'Surrender', it's appalling language and really reveals the populist (fascist) mindset. Despite all the kudos of what a brilliant strategist Cummings is, it does rather look like a dying government with two pretty awful general election routes available. Go before Brexit and be consumed by Farage or go after a no-deal Brexit and risk an election during a national crisis. On the assumption Labour fall for it that is?
