When I comment on what you do it's always to simply explore alternatives, you know I'm a just the type to flip received thinking and see what happens. (Maverick would be the flattering term but bloody awkward is probably more appropriate). It would be a bit audacious to outright challenge you on these things, afterall I'm on your forum rather than you being on mine

First rule of warfare: Never attack when your enemy wants you to.
No party is likely to get a majority in the current climate so why gamble now when the cost could be 5 more Tory years. Much better to wait for a better opportunity.

But as you've just said the political landscape hasn't changed. Cameron plunged a divided nation into a generational decision.ShaunWhite wrote: ↑Tue Oct 22, 2019 8:03 pmNow all we need is for everyone to think that, and then a 2nd referendum
Totally selfish, Tory stupidity.
And there is no way out. We can only hope that the UK is stronger than all this cobblers.
Labour will lose votes to the Lib Dems and the Brexit Party - Conservative majority imo

Everybody will take and lose votes from everyone else. Because a general election will be used to decide a single non party issue. It would be an abuse of the principals of general elections. If there's to be a vote on Brexit that needs to be the only thing on the ballot and a general election then used to decide the way forward from that.
Common sense seems to have prevailed tonight, move forward but with due constitutional diligence.

My gut says you're right. But then I've been wrong at every point from the Scottish Referendum onwards. All I know is the idea that leaving will reduce bureacracy, imigration and increase uk govt control is absolute nonsense.Naffman wrote: ↑Tue Oct 22, 2019 8:27 pmLabour will lose votes to the Lib Dems and the Brexit Party - Conservative majority imo
