"Come on Arlene!" funny and politically ambiguous

 

Do you refuse to vote Tory while Boris is in charge?

 

I haven't voted Tory for years. I did vote Labour last time but I feel I can no longer do so. I'm just sick of this full stop so I probably won't be voting in the next general election.

 

The important thing at the moment is to stop a No Deal Brexit, which would have happened by default if Labour had voted for an early election. It still could. You aren’t looking at the bigger picture, but just repeating the knee-jerk stuff spouted by the Tories.

I do agree that Corbyn’s stance on Brexit has been confusing to say the least, but at least he has now unequivocally backed a second referendum. I know he has said he could get a better deal than Johnson but when it comes down to it there is no possible deal which doesn’t inflict huge damage on this country, so stopping Brexit altogether is the only possible way forward. I’ll be marching in that cause on Saturday, and I urge anyone who loves this country to do the same.

 

you were asked to list your reasons, without repeating the disproved lies that are regularly written or spoken by the right wing media. He did put country first before his political career by refusing an election before no deal was ruled out. You might thank the "knob" for doing that later on

 

I'm not a Corbyn fan and want a general election but it was the right call to block it until after the extension is passed, especially without a set date for the election as boris proposed as he could simply set it after the leaving date and dissolve parliament until then as is required during an election.

 

Perhaps we should all acknowledge the "knob." Without it we would not be here.

 

There was/is a specific reason a general election hasn't been called. It's been widely publicised there's no election before an extension. The Johnson can't be trusted not to have pushed through a no deal brexit. It would have been playing into his hands.
The labour party is insisting on a new referendum. Get that done it's result dealt with and then properly run and supervised campaigns for the GE in 2020..
I'd like to see a change of leader Keir Stammer my favourite.

 

Not a bad choice. Then when Umana has secured his seat as a Lib Dem, I would love to see him rejoin the Labour party where he rightly belongs.

 

Hopefully not. He is the leader of Her Majesty’s opposition and his job is to oppose these fools.

 

In what respect? I couldn’t imagine two more dissimilar individuals, in belief or in character.

 

No extension will be given then

no deal Brexit it is then

 

I don't believe a word that comes out of either's mouth.

 

The blame lies with the arrogant Cameron, and his incompetent government for getting us in this situation. Then with May for paying the DUP off so she could cling to `power`. Arlene is milking it for all she`s worth for her party and NI - she`s getting away with it because of the Tories.

 

Don't disagree at all. What is galling is when the blame is put on Labour, the Lib Dems, SNP, PC, the Greens, and a few Tories.

 

Revoke Article 50 it is then

 

Let's hope it can be done in time...this could now be the most important political decision made since 1939

 

Can you provide an example, a quote from JC that you don’t believe?

 

nothing would make me happier.....but all the Brexiteers at work are adamant we will leave with no deal.

 

You work with idiots, clearly. If they think anyone other than the super-rich will benefit from Brexit at all, let alone a no deal Brexit, they are certifiable.
