I dread to think what bubble you live in.
On his own in his underpants on a cheap sofa in a B&H smoke filled grubby living room with a big screen telly?
I dread to think what bubble you live in.
Taking into account the recent opinion polls what realistically would the Tory majority be expected to be and would it be an overall majority or just largest party?
You do realise less than 25% of the population actually voted to leave? Why would supporters of the mostly leave supporting opposition parties vote for the Brexit Party?
Never had the chance to vote for them to date. We did have a fish-finger in our constituency last time round. Given the chaos at Westminster, I might be tempted.

This tells us one thing and one thing only. Which is that nobody knows anything
Don't believe polls. Don't believe anyone who says they know 'the mood of the nation'. Everything is in flux. Everything is up for grabs.
Apparently, if Boris Johnson doesn't get his general election, he is threatening to remove his Withdrawal bill, and the government to go on strike.
Fun times ahead.
If we join the EEA via the EFTA pillar then we fulfill that cursed referendum and can all move on and live happily ever after - except the racists, obviously, but "c'est la vie" as their French mates say.
This Brexit saga could have been so simple and over and done with on time by the March 2019 deadline.
A plague on the Borg Queen's arbitrary red lines.

All we had to do is keep the Vote Leave promise to the people of being part of the "free trade zone between Iceland and the border of Russia".
A plague on the Borg Queen's arbitrary red lines, and of the breaking of that promise.
Becoming a little frustrated with the EU.
They appear to be enabling our head idiot Johnson and his antics by waiting out what Parliament votes before offering extension.
If they really wanted an end to this mess, the EU would give Labour the green light to vote for the election.
I don't see Johnsons bill passing against more scrutiny. Hell, some Labour MPs only voted it through to allow them more time to read it properly and think of amendments. When all the bad stuff in the deal gets out, it'll be dead in the water like Mays deal.
You've only got to look at the Peterborough by election to see that.
Their Labour MP had gone to prison, so they voted to recall their vote. Labour put up a new candidate but the Brexit party were very sure of taking the seat as Peterborough had voted to Leave.
The new Labour candidate won the seat.
It was similar, in some respects, in Wales, but there the LibDem won from the Tory, despite Wales voting out in the referendum in 2016.
Yes, Switzerland are negotiating Financial Services access from within their EFTA membership, so we'd clearly need to do the same after the initial basic stage is done.I know you keep pushing EFTA, but as i pointed out to you yesterday (or day before ?), there is absolutely nothing for Britain's very significant services sector. (Norway tried, but failed to negotiate something for their financial services).
You have repeatedly said that you really want to leave causing the least economic damage, in which case single market and customs union is the way.
I still can't see the benefit of the economic damage and loss of control that any of these 'Soft Brexits' would cause and that's why I believe we should remain.
The longer the opposition hold out the better. As soon as an election hits the disinformation starts again, with full support from mainstream media. They must resist and force an amendment to the deal that can pass.
I'm just excited to find out who my new Tory MP, for whom I will not have voted, will be...
As I have said before - in the parliamentary democracy that we live in, this, or something like it, was the only realistic route open to her. Especially once she'd f*cked up the election.
We could have had a version of brexit fairly easily, and painlessly. And most sensible people would have accepted it (barring the few extremists on both sides). Indeed, 99.9% of people would not even have noticed it had happened.
But she chose not to as she knew it would require her having to work with Labour, and would tear the Tory party apart.
She put her party ahead of country.
Boris then took over on a promise he knew he could never keep. And deserves to take the blame for knowingly raising that false expectation, in order to stir up further division that he thinks he can, ultimately, take advantage of.
And yet somehow, in the minds of many - it's all Corbyn's fault.
