Seeing as we're now in a period of great change and upheaval, they may as well do it now whilst it'll be lost in the general melee.
If they pick right, they*may*stand a fair chance at the next GE.

Give them what they want, we all know it's going to neverendum forever otherwise, the next one is #indyref2 apparently.
Shame they didn't get it right last time, it would have stopped a whole bitchfest.

On Scotland I agree. I am surprised how Wales voted though as they do very well out of the EU. London is no surprise or Ken.

Another Davie? Yea I think he'll have another go if there is a challenge to Corbyn. Never thought he was right anyway.

One area of doubt, for example, is how the current EU funding will be replaced for the Arts, etc.. Campaign promises are one thing. It will need concrete and visible legislation proposals to allay the Remainers' doubts.

I don't recall Leave making any promises on the Arts. However if we are to become a great power again they too will have to be funded as with Science. I can't see any reason why they won't get what they get back from the EU.

Both large parties seem to have lost their way or their original founding principles, it's a really weird time for politics of late.

That all started when Labour became New Labour and the Lib-Dems were formed. Seems to have gone downhill since then.
