Had they won the election, in spite of what Harman claims they 'heard on the doorsteps', I doubt very much they'd have given two hoots for what they now 'accept' the people want but there we are. Say one thing, do another is in their DNA...
Anyway, I just hope this isn't going to turn into a replay of the Scottish referendum. This is a massively important issue and we need good clear information on which to base our decisions. I want to hear the arguments for and against properly articulated, without the sort of pathetic hysteria we've heard from those opposed to change who'd have us believe that life outside the EU could only be catastrophic. Equally I don't want us to be fooled into thinking that leaving would be a panacea for all our ills. |
This will be the first of many U turns they will do to try and con there way back into power at the next election.
