Deny democracy and insult 52% of the electorate, strange times we live in.

^ There ya go.


They may be insulting 52% of the pop, but they're being quite smart.. They know they won't win on leave, so they're still going for remain. This will get all the remainers voting for them, surely? Which is potentially 47% of the population.

Your link doesn't work presumably because the AB filter has starred out the naughty word.

That’s just confirmed who I’m going to vote for on Thursday.
Thanks, TTT ;P

Well they have little to lose and 48% as of a few years ago DIDN'T want to leave the EU, so it's a natural home for them since Labour seem to be doing a cracking job of being the Tories helpmates. Might be a savvier move than people give them credit for.
They are however an uncharismatic party with no figurehead anyone would really want to get behind and a history of sideswitching and getting into bed with the Tories so how much of the electorate who is pro Europe fancies voting for them remains to be seen.

Calico, if one assumes that the majority of the 48% will vote for a party that advocates remaining in the EU then it is reasonable to assume that the majority of the 52% will vote for a party who advocates leaving.

[naomi24]

^Sounds about right.

[Zacs-Master]

Who would that be then?

[dannyk13]

ZM, The Brexit party, who I expect will do better than the Lib Dems.

[CrapAtCryptics]

The degree of immaturity having a title like that demonstrates only reinforces my belief they arent worth my vote

[Calicogirl]

I don't imagine a fraction of either will bother to vote, but it's not a stupid a manifesto as people are suggesting because they are the only major party with a Remain stance. the other problem being that there is a large contingent of UK voters who like a 'Ring Master' character, so the likes of Farage appeals to them almost regardless of his proposals. We have the same schtick here with Trump.

[Kromovaracun]

I thought UKIP were going more for the "maybe I'll rape you" line.

[Zacs-Master]

I prefer my party to have a manifesto before I vote for them and not have a political butterfly as its chief.

[dannyk13]

To each his own ZM.

Of course you did.

[naomi24]

Calicogirl, //they are the only major party with a Remain stance//

That they openly reject the result of a democratic vote should worry their supporters. And you think Brexit Party voters are stupid?

[Zacs-Master]

Naomi, should that be ‘worry just over half of its supporters’?
