Fair rate would reflect well financed and well run public services, this includes NHS Councils Police Fire service etc.

Don't disagree but before taxing individuals more is there a better way of pulling in more money by going after the dodgers and efficiency savings? I.e. stop spending billions on a no deal Brexit (or any Brexit for that matter) and billions to NI due to a dodgy political alliance.
 
No one knows yet. IMO, Tories will vote for Tories. In Tory Remain areas they may go toward LD but definitely not Labour or Brexit Party. In Tory leave areas, the Tories will still vote for Tories because they hate Corbyn. In Labour Remain areas Labour will still be voted in. In some Labour Leave areas, now we have a debate, because some the Tories will never win but the BP just might with conservative support....but who knows.......

I really don't think the Brexit party will harm the Tories as much as is feared.
A lot of Brexit supporters are over the moon with Boris for at least having a go and
getting a revised deal with the EU against all of the odds and defying the naysayers and defeatists. They
will therefore vote for Boris / Tories. The Tories are now in the minds of most Conservative voters 'The Brexit Party'. 100%. Farage's dalliance with Trump will also not do him any favours either.

I believe its Labour who will get skewered by the Farage & the Lib Dems.
The current odds are:
Most Seats: Conservatives 1/6 (on!) Labour: 7/1
Overall Majority: Conservatives 6/5 (shorter than I would have thought). Labour 16/1.
Hung Parliament: 5/4 (that's pretty short!)
 
One things for sure Labour's promise of a Brexit negotiation in 6 months with the EU then put it back to the people is ludicrous as they will relay to vote Remain - its a killer policy absolute laughable .....
Also Diane Abbott for Chancellor lol
Gove, Hancock..... must I go on....

Yeah, the BXP are finished. The Tories have lurched so far to the right they are essentially the BXP. Johnson's deal is a hard brexit and it still leaves no deal on the table, it ticks all the boxes for BXP voters (none of them care about NI). I can only see a Johnson majority. It depends how much of an arse Farage wants to be, if he really cares about brexit he wont feature much.
