September makes sense. He will have to try and get a majority in parliament and can't leave it until after Brexit hasn't happened on 31st October. It will become a de facto Brexit referendum, and Labour will have no chance unless they take a clear position, offering to re-negotiate Brexit with the EU around a permanent CU, and to then put this back to the country in an actual referendum with Remain as the alternative.
Except that I forgot the Brexit Party, which will get lots of votes but probably not so many seats. They might enter some kind of death cult pact with the Tories.
Yeah I doubt Farage would go up against a Johnson Tory Party. Not much benefit in that when he can just shout from the sidelines. Anyone who votes for Farage’s mob in a general election isn’t arsed about the future of this country.
HumanProgress.org@HumanProgress 5h5 hours ago Why are wolves increasing all around the world, lions decreasing and tigers now holding steady? Basically, because wolves are in rich countries, lions in poor countries and tigers in middle income countries. Prosperity is the solution not the problem.
It's hard to see the UK as a victim of the "ravages" of world capitalism, when London is the international centre of finance, and there is no credible suggestion that this will change after Brexit. The UK continues to be an attractive country for foreign investors to invest in.
Labour using the aptly named Carter Ruck, how many more feet can they shoot themselves in? They must resemble a centipede...
London was at one point without doubt the centre of world financial affairs but that was 16 years ago Since then things have changed a lot and Brexit will mean a lot of change Monitor the drift away it carry on dreaming The penny will drop soon enough
In a nutshell the Brexit has and always be a protest vote .. still absolutely no substance in policy post brexit
The £ currency market values are reflecting where the financial/economy world sees the UK going with the recent increase likelyhood of a no-deal Brexit with the Tory leadership contest. As they did with the Brexit vote. The Pound has now lost almost a third of the value it had against the Thai Baht right before that vote.
If there are UK victims of the increase in globalisation, it is in the North since they don't get the benefit of the radius of London. That featured in the Brexit vote, the rush to centralise power in Northern Europe, making individuals more and more remote from key decision makers. It needs to be addressed in the UK post Brexit.
Labour MP and Brexiteer Kate Hoey to step down at next election. Boris could do far worse than hire her in some form. She's competent and her heart is fully behind Brexit. She was always far too good for Corbyn's abject project imo.
