Current Affairs EU In or Out

Yes I can just see radicalised momentum supporters voting for Swinson - not.

Do you personally know any "radicalized momentum supporters", whoever they are?.

 

[Kev The Rat]

if it helps, I doubt you have a Labour point of view

I have - not Corbyns though. I do have the ability to look at things objectively

Corbyn would be very silly indeed to agree to this.

he’s at 25% in the polls - polling lower than Michael Foot.

I'm not a flag waving unionist at all but I'd be upset if NI and Scotland left the UK. It is very myopic if people think we will be better off splintering off into different parts.

The four countries together have done great things to make this one political entity what it is today. It be weird to think in future that a Scottish invention or achievement would have no or limited sense of pride this side of the border when we all share this fairly small Island together.

But you don't. Unless I'm very much mistaken, NI, which isn't actually a country because it is part of another one, is on a completely different island.

This is why the assertion that the UK is 'an island nation' is fundamentally flawed. Either that, or people who use it don't even realise that NI is in the UK.

....he’s Jeremy Corbyn, the Labour Party have not been clever enough to shift him and I can’t see his popularity improving.

5 more years of Johnson.

Agree he should be booted for Starmer.

I cannot vote Labour with him at the helm

Not really. The UK is made up of sommet like 80 islands, plus one that is part of another island. Cant see how being an island nation is flawed even a little bit.

It's really quite simple, GB is an island which contains 3 parts of the UK. The 4th part is on a completely different island which means that when you add them together they are not an island nation.

Would brexit not have played a very big part in a increased desire to leave the union, it wont necessarily be down to nationalism as it will a far more rational desire for a better future. I don't know by the way, just a suggestion.

Well yes, I understand where you’re coming from, but surely the great irony here is Sturgeon trying her level best to quit the Union to be ‘independent’, and then trying to join up with the EU, therefore diluting said independence? I mean she won’t even have a currency to use.

...i’ll still vote Labour but voters they need to win the election will not vote for Corbyn to be PM. Folk on here continue to defend him, but the reality is he puts voters off.

This is a dreadful Tory Government, but this Momentum Labour Party will struggle to shift them.

Calm down edge .... you’re giving @Joey66 a semi lob on here lol

I thought you would be after sheep......

Stella Creasy talking down an election from Labour pov

SNP saying Johnson is a caged animal and Parliament would be mad to let him out

 

[Joey66]

Yeah, a real drain on UK resources are the Scots, what with their massive financial services industry and the contribution North Sea oil has made to UK Plc.

Unreal.

The oil and gas has diminished since the Barnet formula was calculated.....
The UK imports gas from Europe now.......even Russia....

No chance of an election

the caged animal anology is a good one
