I don't think there is a Brexit deal that doesn't damage the economy and the NHS. I've yet to see any evidence that one exists. On the other hand, I've seen plenty of evidence that even the softest Brexit deal will result in a substantial hit to GDP.

 

So we're back to unicorns.

Same people in the Brexit thread telling us it’s a national disaster telling us it’ll be ok because master negotiator JC will sort it.  Madness.

I suspect both of them weren’t serious about anyone dying.  Although you may need a 30 page thread and literally everyone on the site explaining it to you.  Ha, bud.  

Sweet. Feel free to attack whichever Labour personality you like Rico. Not sure why you’re asking me to do it. I’m voting Labour.

"trashing" or "damaging"?

 

The former is Keith Moon's hotel room.

 

The latter can be anything from a stain on the wall on up.

 

One needs a total rebuild, the other a lick of paint.

 

What exactly did Corbyn say?

Corbyn is quoted as saying "trashing". Stronts changed the wording to make Corbyn look bad.

 

I don't think this is unprecedented.

if you want to call the labour candidate all the names in the world and be outraged by her action, feel free. Not sure why you’re trying to bring me into it.

Based on your previous posts I have no doubt you don’t understand.

Well that was a bit pointless, wasn’t it?

I thought as intelligent political analysers we didn't partake in "whataboutery"

I agree that no Brexit will be a good outcome and hope that we remain at the end of the day , but a Labour BRINO would be easier to swallow than the present Johnson mess.and give both sides of the argument a choice at a referendum rather the proscriptive ‘ we know better ‘ policies from Tories and Lib Dems.

 

If the Labour referendum happened I would like to see the party structures and leader remain neutral but MPs and members allowed to campaign on a personal basis for whichever side they favour.

I think it’s consistency.  
 

ive posted in the past about digging up old tweets and the drive for ‘perfection’ Jon Ronsons book on the subject is brilliant.  It’s bollocks as we’ve all done something that someone else would find offensive.  

[aRdja]

Let’s not scrutinise politicians lads because we’ve all done lines of beak.

[A Red]

Reading this thread has made it all ever so confusing for my addled brain.

 

Brexit is terrible, is for racists and will fuck the economy right up however you do it, people must change their minds. Ok, I have. But, actually none of that applies, if Jeremy does it, we dont know and it doesnt matter how he will do it, it will be ok. Lib dems, the only party whose policy is to stay, actually really want to leave so that they can campaign to re-join. 

 

Its real head scratcher for a remainer.

[Bjornebye]

Is anyone watching Swinson on BBC News live here? She is all over the place. 

 

Started her speech with attacks on other leaders instead of focusing on her own party. When asked about Lib-Dems assisting Corbyn into Downing Street she came out with a load of bollocks. 

 

It is obvious Corbyns stance is for a peoples vote if he gets into power. he has said he will go and get the best Brexit deal possible, lay it on the table and take it to a peoples vote which will more than likely see Brexit being binned. Then starts talking about equality and equal rights and brings up anti-semitism and Luciana Berger. Then she mentions him being a threat to national security. 

 

Seriously does she think she has a chance at all of ever being anything than a 3rd wheel? Especially with her bullshit.

Stop pretending that you think any EU election is a reliable indicator of what might happen in a General Election. 

 

Stop pretending if has no relevance at all in an election that will be all about Brexit.

"Liberal Democrats"

 

Do you think it is democratic to revoke article 50 without a peoples vote?

If a government is democratically elected with a mandate to do just that, because the existing government refuses to give us a second referendum, then it obviously is.

Well considering it appears to be Lib Dems only gambit apart from lies , smear and slander then I guess you are right. 

[Bjornebye]

Swinson - She accuses him of being "unfit to be prime minister" and of not giving "a straight answer on Brexit".

 

So, more lies then. 

[Bobby Hundreds]

I thought the  whole point for Labour was try to get a better deal (which will still be worse) and then put that against remaining in a referendum. Which hopefully most people will just vote remain.

Thats exactly what it is. 

 

Don't tell the resident yellow-tory spin doctor though. He might get dizzy.

So what's the point of trying to negotiate another deal . Why not say labour will offer referendum on  Boris J deal V  Remain ?

[Denny Crane]

It seems to me the Lib Dems will only be satisfied with a referendum with remain against remain as the two options. Attacking Labour for offering a referendum with remain as an option when it was Lib Dem policy for a few years seems fitting of a write-up in the Daily Mash. 

 

[Bobby Hundreds]

Im guessing Boris deal is essentially a hard brexit for ordinary people and Labour at least want a deal that has certain protections in it. Not that they would have any more chance of making such a deal. but I suppose at least the intent is there. Fuck knows.

Because what is the point of taking a risk on Boris Johnsons deal? Lets say they use that in a referendum and it somehow passes? Fuck that.
