But lots of Brexiters loved to shout that Britain was only the first, that many other countries would soon see the writing on the wall and start leaving etc etc etc. Yet none of that has materialised. Mmmm....

Instead the likes of Italy's populist government, Hungary's far-right government, Austria's far-right government, and more are working to destroy the EU from the inside, mmmmm .....

So we should leave & let them get on with it?


What could possibly go wrong?

I'm not asking what it's policies are for after we leave. I'm asking what their policy is for the process of leaving.

They are a single policy party. Is it really too much to ask what that policy is?

Is a vote for the Brexit Party a vote for the hardest possible Brexit.

YES or NO. As you say. It's not that difficult

Seriously you want a yes or no answer?

The policy is gain maximum votes and seats in the European election. Use that as a publicity springboard to gain as many seats as possible at the next GE. If it wins enough seats to hold a balance of power, steer policy towads a simple clean no deal exit. Putting a no deal squarely on the negotiating table means we'll negotiate a better deal than May's wet wipes.

It's a disrupter party, if you're looking fo a neat and tidy answer you're not going to find one.

It's a single policy party. If it can't or won't be honest about what that policy is, it doesn't deserve a single vote.

And in news that surprises no-one, privileged, prancing dilletante, Boris Johnson announces he is running to replace Theresa May as PM.

As a Labour supporter I can only thank the Tories for their sterling efforts to destroy themselves.

Labour aren’t doing as badly but Corbyn/Abbott is something I’ll never vote for and I’m not averse to some of labours policies so I could be persuaded if they got their act together.
My forces/ex-forces friends will never vote for Corbyn.
You need people like Keir Starmer and previously I would have said chukka Umuna.

Not messing it up as badly but they are not gaining from the Tory failures eithers.
If you look at the local elections labour lost seats.
Not as many as the tories but they still lost.

Excellent.

Boris PM.
Rees-Mogg Home Secretary.
Mark Francois Chancellor.


That should finish off the tories for good.

I fear not.
Boris is like cat-nip to any given electorate. In any subsequent election involving BJ and Corbyn, there's only one winner.

Hard wto brexit then, that wasn't so difficult?

Is that a North Korea WTO, or Farages leave-then-negotiate plan?

It'll certainly be simple and clean to do, but it's going to be a nightmare to manage the side effects.

Personally I think we should drop out and then have negotiators in Brussels until we get a deal we want.
