Thanks to the mess the Tories have created i can see Corbyn and his lot getting in at the next GE

And then get blamed for the cluster **** that has been left behind, if only we had Boris, the guy who changed his stance on Brexit to spite Cameron
 
Where's this taken from? It's strange that it hasn't been reported in the media. If you look at most polls over the last year, there is no clear change between Leave and Remain

Granted it's a social media thing but that's quite a number of votes... and on a pro Farage page.
 
I hadn't seen that. Where's it reported?
Yes it was a fantasy island poll Goldie. take it with a pinch...
However

latest Sky data poll
Would Jeremy Corbyn be competent to negotiate Brexit 22% competent 71% incompetent
Would Labour be competent to negotiate Brexit 25% competent 68% incompetent

I actually surprised that Corbyn got 22% I would have had it at about -100%

However
75% on a poll think the government is doing a bad job on Brexit

British public opinion has shifted sharply against Brexit, according to a new Sky Data poll.

The survey reveals:

:: The government is haemorrhaging trust regarding the Brexit negotiations

:: Two-thirds of the public - including a majority of Leave voters - now think the outcome of Brexit negotiations will be bad for Britain

:: A significant increase in the proportion who think Brexit will negatively affect themselves personally, the economy and the country overall

:: Most people would like to see a referendum asking between the deal suggested by the government, no deal, and remaining in the EU.

A key issue would seem to be whether, if May loses the vote on the Brexit deal she presents to Parliament, she can continue in office. If she can, we may be headed for no deal. However, it is possible that if it's clear May can lose the vote and continue, some Labour MP's may vote for her deal in order not to trigger a no-deal. It's a game of chess...

It's a shame how our democratic vote is being sabotaged for political gain by some. I believe it will happen but if we get cheated out of Brexit many parties/MP's will lose their jobs and millions won't trust the establishment again and will not vote at elections taking us into chaotic times.
AS I said some time ago we should have got Farage to do the Brexit talks with the EU and none of this would happen.

Yeah he's called for a second referendum more than once

After calling out for Farages advice i wonder if @ELLERS agrees..... <whistle>

Farage is one of the most disingenuous ****ers about, married and employed a German woman because no English woman could do the job.

His attendance record in the EU was one of the worst

He had a Father Ted/Arthur Fowler thing going on
https://www.theguardian.com/politic...-eu-salary-docked-claim-misspent-public-funds

Lost a 100k law suit from talking **** and this time someone standing up against him
https://www.independent.co.uk/news/...nt-ukip-lose-withdraw-statement-a8054276.html

It's easy to shout things from sidelines, suggest how he would have done things... With his track record he's hardly the most reliable or believable and see no reason why 'man of the people' Nige could be trusted to open a can of beans that had already been opened.

Many fear him and will say anything to stop him or belittle him. People need to remember he was instrumental in winning Brexit and our freedom while others sat and did nothing but give our country away to unelected mafia boys in Brussels. He has been spot on with all of this as well from both sides of the argument.
