Well we're still in the EU. so we could ask them to sort us out.
we've been out of paractice for about 40 years of how to look after our selves.

I wonder if America can help us?

Looks like a lib dem government next time round

The Liberal Democrats will campaign in the next General Election for the UK to re-join the European Union, the party has announced.

Only the lib dems could come up with that one

The Lib Dems won't won but the pledge might help them get more seats which is their goal.

What has Jeremy Corbin failed to do? Talk Labour voters into voting remain, when in their hearts they wanted to leave?

Shouldn't the Labour party be respecting the wishes of their voters, not telling them what to vote?

The Remain Labour MPs need to get over the referendum result and recognise that a sizeable chunk of their voters wanted to leave.

Seem that Jeremy Corbin got the mood of Labour voters right with his 7-7.5 support of being in.

Well the majority of Labour voters voted in and Labour believe he could have done more to increase that number. He failed to lead the Labour party and he failed to make a dent in the campaign. The stories coming out of the party are absurd. He wouldn't campaign with other parties, he dropped EU messages out of speeches, he didn't go to campaign in areas he was asked to campaign in, they refused to share voter information with the IN campaign and the party even had to beg him not to go to Turkey to make a speech promoting the idea of open borders between them and the EU!

Apparently Blair and Brown were sent in to make speeches to activists because Corbyn wouldn't.

No need for abuse Michael, I was trying unsuccessfully to lighten the mood, as the last week has certainly depressed me for one. If we all kept our stupid remarks to ourselves it would be a bit quiet around here wouldn't it ?

I really think the last few years of politics have been a giant prank that has got out of hand.

Exactly. that's what I said.

Resignations reach 10 + Hilary B, this is now half Shadow cabinet walking out, because of JC.
