I think there should be something implemented that in effect forces manifesto commitment to be binding.

Both labours/conservatives proved complete nonsense.

how has Labour's been "proved complete nonsense"?

That won't happen, simply because it'd be total madness. Brexit will be kicked in to the long grass first.

Indeed, the common sense thing to do right now is revoke the Article 50 declaration, then reinvoke it following a General Election and possible second referendum on the type of exit, meaning that the transition period is the countdown after we formally request Brexit.

That was the mistake in the first place for the Brexiteers - sheer impatience and demanding Article 50 being triggered as soon as possible instead of looking at the hand you had to play first. The EU were always in a position of power on this issue; the Tory backbench racist brigade didn't care.

That won't happen as the Tories are split they are not that stupid .....

It was complete fiscal fantasy land - example - they were in full damage limitation to bridge the gap, knowing they'd never be held to account.

I just think a manifesto shouldn't be so easily veered away from.

So not "proved" at all, then.

Yeah but the thing is Corbyn would have actually attempted to do it, bankrupt the country, left with a shrug of his shoulders and left the mess for someone else to clean up.

So it wasn't 'nonsense' in that it would have went unfulfilled really.
