Sayeeda Warsi defects to remain because she's spotted Brexit is a popular choice for xenophobes and racists. Now call me a cynic but I could've told her that before the word 'Brexit' was even invented.
So that's Johnson and Gove promising they won't call for Cameron's resignation if there's a Brexit (yeah right) and now another Tory MP trying to limit career damage.
Who will be the next rat to leave the sinking ship and make for shore?0 -

That is the same Baroness Warsi who has quit the govt at least once and was never actually campaigning for leave and yet according to the bbc is a massive defection....
I notice Mr Murdoch is covering all basis leaning one way with the times/sunday times and the other with the Sun :rotfl:I think....0 -
What does Warsi actually do? She's never held an elected position, just hung around the Tory party because she ticks a couple of useful boxes.
I'm puzzled as to what's "racist" about the Breaking Point poster? Can we not discuss the implications of tens of thousands of migrants tramping across Europe at the specific invitation of Merkel?They are an EYESORES!!!!0 -
Indeed.
If as is likely Brexit loses, then expect a Scottish Nationalist style reluctance to let the 'dream die 'by the Brexiteers.
This issue is certainly not dead post 23th June.
Maybe not dead but in a slumber.
The SNP, of course, could never let the dream die - independence is their reason to be.
This is a completely different situation where most Brexit supporters don't have the same single issue focus. Johnson and Gove won't pick up the baton - they'll be trying to rescue their careers from the rocky shores of Europe where many a Tory has been wrecked.
There's always UKIP I suppose.0 -

Yes but ukip only got 4m votes at the last general election so why should anyone care about them?I think....0 -

If I don't reply to your post,
you're probably on my ignore list.0 -
the vast majority of these quotes are from people like you .
it avoids having to address the actual problems
-do 3 million foreigners in London affect proprety availability and the ability of young families to live in a family sozed house?
-do 3 million foreigners in London have any impact of transport there?
-do 3 million foreigners in London impact hospitals, doctors etc ?
-do the 9 million foreigner in the UK impact on our high balance of payments deficit : although unfashionable at the moment, as the deficit is funding by selling our industry and foreign borrowing, it will come back to bite us soon.
You and the remain campaign purposely avoid stating the facts
So your main hope after brexit is that the government will ignore the democractically expressed wish of the people.
The one thing that has really surprised me about the whole campaign, is the consistent belief of the 'remain' people that democracy doesnot matter at all and their belief that bureaucrats are better (or in some cases the racist view that EU politicians are better the those form the UK).
whatever happens I doubt this referendum will see the matter settled.
Why don't you just say what you actually think Clapton?
What kind of "foreigner" is allowed to live in London, in your brave new world. The ones who work in the NHS? Investment bankers from New York? Asylum seekers who are nothing to do with the EU?
Which people are you and your neo-brownshirt movement going to expel first?
Wouldn't houses be so much cheaper and everything so much nicer if we just got rid of everyone you disapprove of?
Vile.0 -

Its worse than that he knows and accepts that leaving the EU isn't going to make London houses affordable for the nurse or police officer yet he keeps going on about foreigners causing house prices to go up.0 -

This from a guy who is happy with unlimited white christian immigration from the EU even when that obviously diminishes the number of non-white, non-Christians the country will take from anywhere else.
And then accuses others of double standardsI think....0
