The EU debate - Part III

No snowflake comes from the term snowflake generation and therefore relates to an age group.

 

Generation X are people born after baby boomers. Those born in the '60's and early '70's. which probably includes you?..

 

I agree, Snowflake does seem to describe you, you, you as your attitude is **** the rest as long as I'm alright. Pete is more like a snowball.

 

Bye bye Labour Party
This chart shows what an 'electoral mountain' Labour must climb to win the election

'unless something totally drastic takes place.'

Can anyone think of something drastic that is likely to occur in the next 4 years?

At the moment the headline rates don't appear to be telling the full story. The local election results since Brexit have shown a polarisation which means a lot of tory support is being concentrated in a smaller number of seats, it also shows a similar story for lib dems who have won 18 seats in traditional tory areas that voted remain, while tories have lost 16. I don't for a minute believe Labour will turn it round, but I'm also far from convinced it's a foregone conclusion with so much still to happen.

 

My own view is, and always has been, that Labour will never win a GE with Corbyn at the helm.

However, that doesn't mean the Tories are a shoe-in for the next election. Far from it. I do honestly believe that there's an appetite in the country for a Centre-left party who are genuinely pro business ( I don't believe Corbyn & co are), but still believes in creating a fairer, more balanced society.

Lib-Dems, get your act together for once, and who knows?....

 

late 70s, whats that Generation XXX?

 

Yes thats basically what I said, in a sort of nutshell around about way

The ****** generation

 

They are worse than Labour

 

How so?...

 

Lib Dem policy's are all over the place, will not accept Brexit (so going against 52% of the vote) thats just for starters.
and dim Tim is no leader.

 

I did say, 'get your act together, for once'.

As to the Brexit vote, I'd agree that making another referendum part of your manifesto is a stupid idea. To make it party policy to ignore a democratic vote of the people is electoral suicide. Other parties would rightly ask, if they're prepared to turn over this vote, they're obviously prepared to overturn any vote they don't approve of.

That doesn't mean that final, not further negotiable terms of the separation should not be put before the British people for their final approval before that final step is taken, in my view.

 

Asking for a referendum on the terms of Brexit once they are outlined isn't the same as ignoring the referendum.
If the Tories come up with an excellent deal then surely a second referendum would be a formality.

 

There's no comparison between Corbyn and Fallon compared to May.

 

I agree with you. May doesn't give a **** about the vast majority of us.

 

What has May done so far other than show some very slopey shoulders?

 

This is what the tories do

Push poor people into debt without providing an alternative that would be cheaper for tax payers and those in this position.

 

She definitely doesn't give anything to inadequates who wont help themselves and want to rely on handouts.
The other two are incompetent.

 

What do you mean? She gave a 'job' to Boris didn't she. I don't think there is anyone more inadequate than him getting a state handout.

 

He got a classics degree from Oxford. So much for your view of him as being inadequate.
Shock, horror: More loony left delusion!
