You see, these are the kind of throwaway comments that make me want to tear my hair out. Was the NHS all rosy under Labour? NO! This same old argument can be used time and time and time again... ad infinitum. It's the Tories, it's Labour, it's all there faults. They wheel out a new Government...

If there were a second referendum it has to be more than a yes/no vote and the British public need to be fully informed as opposed to soundbites made from the first referendum. Many, on both sides were quite simply fooled into the hype. Incredibly startling how quiet Johnson has been in the past...

Yes, I think you're talking national as opposed to local politics? I am saying that every MP should vote on behalf of their ward and the majority consensus view and not for their own selfish ideals. It makes a mockery of democracy if they are voting for themselves. This is a vote to leave, not a...
Ok that's fair enough, but surely if the MP is voting on behalf of their constituency they should be voting for the larger percentage of votes for or against, surely that is their duty? If they don't then they are not doing their job? They are voting for their own self fulfilment and ignoring...
I hope Trotsky Corbyn does call a vote of no confidence. When he loses he may just find out no matter how unpopular the Govt, he is disliked even more. I look forward to his humiliation.
I think this is now the third or fourth time this has been said on this thread. He has one assist this season, again said for the third or fourth time.
