General Election/Brexit BoJo really is playing a dangerous game of chess. He now wants a general election before Christmas. We are all okay, as long as "we" are the ones living on top of the empire of eternal war. - Jaawwnn | |

Boris is a pinball kicked around, without any course or plan. a this point it is impossible to predict what can or will happen Ideally speaking, the President of the United States and the dumbest person in the country would be two different people. Oh well.... money can't fix stupid | |

this sounds like a sensible alternate solution: Easier than Brexit: all countries except Great Britain are leaving the EU to form a new allianceBrussels, London (dpo) - With Great Britain obviously being unable to execute its exit from the European Union in an orderly manner within the planned two years, the other Member States have now decided to take a different, more straightforward route: They want to carry out a so-called EUxit.

Oh no! Looks like it's gonna happen. A December election. I hope people will put Brexit aside and vote according to how well they think the Tories have done since 2010, but I fear they won't We are all okay, as long as "we" are the ones living on top of the empire of eternal war. - Jaawwnn | |

Corbyn fights a good campaign and, obviously, as someone to the left i'm a big fan but I wouldn't say i'm optimistic about a Labour win. | |

This. The problem is that Corbyn hasn't offered a clear party policy re Brexit. Therefore the Brexiteers might vote Boris in the hope that he'll ensure Brexit happens, and the Remainers might vote Lib Dem as they've promised we won't leave, leaving Labour somewhat in a grey murky area. I really hope that people don't suddenly forget the shit the Tories have put us through for the last decade, and I hope Corbyn could win, but I'm not optimistic either. Sadly, I think the Brexit party and fucking foul-face Farage might rise from the ashes and swipe a load of votes too.

Well don't despair either, Farage has a habit of losing, right? They were predicting a landslide for the Conservatives last time and close to the opposite happened. | |

Are there a large amount of voters that now see voting for Brexit was a huge mistake and can transfer that realization to thid upcoming vote? "Families are torn apart, men women and children are separated. Children come home from school to find their parents have gone missing." - Anne Frank | |

Maplenpg could probably answer better but my understanding is that this is the question no one is sure about the answer, there are many who say it would be voted for again, possibly in even bigger numbers as a large number of people just want the government to get a move on and leave the EU. You could call it the Trump vote, the protest vote against elites. Edit: sorry, to answer your question, it has become messy where to transfer your vote. The lib dems have basically become a single-issue party (stay in Europe) while Labour would prefer to talk about changing the country. Labour have said they will back a second referendum but took a while to say it definitively, and Corbyn has a habit of being painted as the devil by the media, so it's an uphill struggle.

I agree with much of this (although I do like Corbyn, especially Corbyn at his best), however I really hope that this doesn't become just a Brexit election (I know, it will). I certainly won't be voting based on my Brexit stance that's for sure. I'll be voting based on the last decade of rule in this country, which has been shockingly bad. We are all okay, as long as "we" are the ones living on top of the empire of eternal war. - Jaawwnn | |

This will certainly be the election to decide that alright. The narrative of the media will be 100% this is a Brexit election, which yeah it is to an extent, but it's up to Labour to make it more than that, because it should be more than that. But then again, it's an election, it's about winning. | |

Interesting that BoJo and Farage want Trump's endorsement to raise their chances, yet Corbyn uses Trump's criticism of him to raise his chances We are all okay, as long as "we" are the ones living on top of the empire of eternal war. - Jaawwnn | |

Farage not standing as MP, instead he will support 600 other Brexit Party candidates, and tour making sure people know what a terrible deal BoJo negotiated. This could be bad news for the Tories (and some Labour voters too no doubt). We are all okay, as long as "we" are the ones living on top of the empire of eternal war. - Jaawwnn | |

The LAST time you were wrong?? WTF! You are one hilarious MF. No wonder you're such a fan of that asshole Trump. He's never wrong either. | |

Do you know Only, if you had stopped the sentence at "It looks like Brexit is dead", then we may have had a conversation. Instead you followed it with a big load of bullshit, which just made you look stupid and ignorant. I think you are better than the ridiculous comments you are posting more and more frequently nowadays, it's a pity you keep proving me wrong.

no, not really. I do point out when people make up lies... I also do not believe he did anything impeachable... the tape of biden saying what he did and hunter's admission he got the job because of his dad... and the treaty... seems like that was a legal request.
