Why do you need a party leader to tell you how to vote in the referendum? Can you not make your own mind up?

 

The people negotiating the deal will be negotiating acceptable terms on which to leave.  My understanding is that talk of the party "remaining neutral" means that MPs will be free to campaign to leave or remain.

 

It's a good-faith position that respects the electorate. 

My understanding is that they will tell you how they would like you to vote in the new referendum once conference decides. 

 

My problem is they wont tell the electorate how they would like the referendum to go in the prior General Election. Its all very wishy washy and designed to fudge it with the electorate for fear of losing northern leave voting seats

I'm not arguing against another referendum just that, as a voter, you should know what a parties policy is on something like remain/stay. As Rico stated, as a staunch remainer, how can he now vote labour? Just as if you are mad keen to leave, how can you vote labour? Far better Tory or Lib Dems.

 

Seems like a daft tactic to me.

Because if he votes Labour he gets another referendum. If he votes Tory he gets Leave. If he votes Lib Dem he gets leave.

 

It’s really not difficult to understand.

1. I dont support Rangers. There is no relevance anyway, please knock it on the head

 

2. It isnt labours policy to state their preference until after the election.

 

I'm beginning to think that perhaps youre just as thick as me

Number one makes me feel better about you.

 

The last line, mate I am thick as fuck. Arguably the thickest person on this forum after CT. 

 

Up the Rebels.

Havent the Lib Dems not stated that they would revoke article 50 and just stay? So therefore Tories leave, Lib Dems stay and Labour another vote

 

As you say, its not difficult to understand

I have no idea who you are but I must concur with what Stig said about you earlier.

I have no idea who you are either, but - you said vote Tory - Leave, Vote Lib Dem - Leave, Vote Labour get another referendum.

 

I just pointed out what the actual policies were.  If that makes me thick then fair enough.

Thick, or disingenuous, which is a posh way of saying that I smell a troll.

 

Anyone voting for a party that won’t win, doesn’t get their policy. And they are the only party offering that option. Apart from the Greens, who also won’t win.

 

So realistically, people will know that the best chance they have of remaining is to vote Labour and get the 2nd referendum.

 

I’m not suggesting that it will work, politics these days is beyond prediction, but as a policy it makes complete sense. Anyone who can’t see that has a questionable motive.

How am i trolling by stating that i think labours policy is wrong? I suggested they should come out and say stay, that would make them a viable alternative and peoples best chance of staying. I suggested in a reply elsewhere in the thread that Labours policy is a fudge designed to hold on to leave voting northern constituencies. In my opinion it will back fire because, some people do vote on principles not just on who they think will win.

 

It does come across as a tad arrogant and ignorant that someone who doesnt share your views is a thick, disingenuous troll with questionable motives. Though fair play, you did pack a few in.
