[Politics] Brexit
- Thread starter KingstonSeagull
- Start date
Depending on the phrasing of the question, imho it would be decisive rejoin. I’ve only known movement from Brexiteers who voted in good faith / not realising real world effects on them, who regret it.
At the GE Reform got 14% of the vote, Tories 24%. I know many Tories who are consistently (lifelong) pro EU. In the other direction add x percent of Red Wall voters who went back to Labour, but are very anti EU in Wales/Midlands/North.
70/30?

The difference being what I said was true, what you spewed was not.

Watching a pair of globalists who consistently call everything wrong, balanced yea OK.
I dont watch GB news but you must if you have such a strong opinion unless you are crying.
But stick with the Guardian which ran away from X because it was getting fact checked....a lot.

You haven’t a clue what media/social media sources I use, other than I found GB/Talk cringy.

So another day goes by, another large chunk of Labour political capital spent backtracking their former position, this time on the WASPI women.
Add this to this list of Winter Fuel Allowance, Employer NI hikes, Inheritance Tax for farmers, 2-child benefit cap, the Green Investment Pledge.
They're creating a political capital "Black Hole" of their own making by insisting that the Tory Brexit remains in place for the foreseeable future. The £100 billion hit to the economy annually would pay for all of the items I listed above with spare change for improving our defences against the Russian / Chinese threat.
It is staggering that Starmer did not leave his options open on Europe. He is cutting off his nose to spite his face. It is now time for the Lib Dems to ramp up the heat on this issue.

Can only think LibDem polling shows the vast majority of people have no interest in Rejoin and the issue being at the forefront again (I know, sad that most don’t care). Also they won a load of marginals where Brexit was popular.
LibDem politicians themselves were passionately pro Europe. Must be uncomfortable spending years biting your tongue on Rejoin for the party’s greater good, when it means so much.
