    The mention of any MPs not having difficulty in getting anything done fills me with dread. The most incompetent bunch of ****tards ever to be voted into office

    I’ve just looked at it’s website. There is nothing on it except for how to volunteer and how to donate. Their only publically stated policy is standing in the EU elections if the UK hasn’t left. It’s current well known membership is eight ex UKIP MEPs (elected of course as UKIPPERs, no question of them standing down and seeking re election). If it’s a one issue party and aims to stand in a general election, doesn’t that convert the election into a kind of half arsed referendum?

    Weird scenes inside the goldmine.

    If there is a GE it will be a proxy for a referendum. Brexit will be the single most important issue.

    I don't think it has to be that one. New party, in the same way as Tigs. As you've said, break offs from Tories and Labour. Possibly with Farage?

    Do you think any Labour MPs would throw their coin in with toadface Farage ?
    They’ll be adopting the ‘Horst Weissel’ song as the parties anthem quicker than you can chant ‘gas ‘em all’

    Farage is in that one now though. He only left UKIP in December. TIGs are all over the place, not even registered as a party yet and apparently no plans to. They’ll fall apart after Brexit anyway, not a natural home for the Tory faction in there without the people’s vote stuff, all the rest are primarily anti Corbyn.

    Politics in this country has reached the lowest point I can remember.

    Every knife sold in the UK should have a gps tracker fitted in the handle. It’s time we had a national database like we do with guns. If you’re carrying it around you had better have a bloody good explanation, obvious exemptions for fishing etc.

    This is what our mealy-mouthed self-serving c*nt-faced MPs have done to 17.4 million voters last night...

    MPs vote heavily against second referendum. Thank **** for that, the absolute worst thing we could have done.

    Doesn’t mean it’s definitively ruled out permanently though.

    It depends on the Brexit outcome. Injustice and independence are massive motivators and there are 17 million that could be nursing grievances

    So now we have voted to delay brexit to End of June ( assuming the EU allow it) do we have to vote for EUPs.
