Did anyone see this?
Ahah! Your arch enemies making your passport :mustafi:
Passports and fish.
He seems to have forgotten the word āsomeā in that sentence
Shouldnāt āsomeā be āmajorityā?
Brexit is a pain for Labour. Not sure Corbyn if doing much wrong in relation to the public mood and Brexit though. There simply isnāt a majority for a second referendum
Seems to depend on the metric.
Either way the statement I criticised isnāt accurate, evidently. Unless you want to argue that Labour voters uniformly are against Brexit
Fairly sure that if Corbyn wants to win the next election he needs to focus on more than just the views of Labour voters anyway, no?
After his failed leadership bid, Iām more surprised that this didnāt happen sooner.
Hard one for me, because I think Smith is correct.
Wonder what their headlines will be like when Brexit doesnāt happenā¦
I think the key to the next election for Labour is drawing the support of other left wing voters with a soft or even anti brexit stance.
The core policies of the manifesto is basically sorted. I doubt other policies are likely to attract voters in huge numbers
Will Brexit even be an issue at the next election? Assuming it is in 2022 the chances are that Brexit will be over and we wouldāve left the EU and the transition period.
Itāll probably be much more about trade and social care etc
The reason people didnāt want to vote for Labour was that it was a party in disarray. Thatās why they polled so low and why the election happened in the first place. I think thatās why going against party position shouldnāt be coming from the front bench. At the end of the day this is opposition politics, itās not everyone have an opinion and bang on about it. What people want is a credible government with some kind of unity in their vision and a leader with a team not going against them.
Anyone opposed to Brexit would sensibly vote Labour next election, so I wouldnāt be too concerned about winning that vote. If anything a I would prefer Labour to try and win some of the pro-Brexit vote.
Ultimately Labour have the NHS, schools, all these types of issues in the bag, their success next election will come down to itās economic platform. Another strong manifesto to put to bed the false narrative that the crash was down to Labour and that Tories are a safe pair of hands. Cut into that and Labour will win.
Not much to see here really and tbh whether the money was spent legitimately or not the votes were still cast so I think itās a stretch to say the democratic process has potentially been compromisedā¦but still this is interesting all the same.
With the final vote count being so close, thatās what makes this overspending meaningful.
Iām no supporter of Brexit but remain had much more money and the support of the political elite in the UK and aboard.
This is an attempt to undermine the vote.
Itās not about how much you have, but how much you spent. Thatās why we have these spending limits.
1.3m votes difference isnāt close.
