“Doesn't really matter, does it? You are a vile, treacherous b**tard if you bote [sic] for this deal. You are nothing to do with the Labour party.

May you be hated by many for ever.”


very disturbing

I think she will win the seat despite backing Boris.
Regardless of any MPs position on Brexit that is an absolute disgrace. No one should be subject to that abuse.

I would come back to the representative vs direct democracy discussion and argue that this highlights that the general public has a distinct lack of knowledge of how our political system works.
