QUOTE (je suis Charlie @ Jun 7 2019, 01:47 PM) If the EU did nothing you'd complain. "Under EU rules, no country should have a budget deficit larger than 3% of gross domestic product or debt above 60% of GDP. Italy‘s public debt was 132.2% of GDP in 2018 and is forecast to rise to 135%."

"Boris Johnson is the only Tory leadership candidate capable of beating both Jeremy Corbyn and the Brexit Party, according to new polling which suggests he would win a crushing 140-seat majority for the Conservatives at the next general election if he was elected Prime Minister." According to the Telegraph.

According to the Telegraph. It doesn’t seem to make sense to me because all it will do is take votes from Farage. It seems to me. As mayor he may have done well with the electorate but he wasn’t so divisive then as he is now. I just wish Labour could ditch Corbyn. Any one else would walk it.

Johnson and Farage have already stitched it up. Wait for the announcement as soon as BJ is crowned. One proper right wing party. One proper left wing party. The question is.. Will a charasmatic centre ground politician emerge to challenge?

I agree, Corbyn would be a disaster for this country as he will be to the labour election prospects if BJ is elected tory leader. Looks to be a straightforward decision made difficult by the 8 or 9 unknowns who think they can do better than Mother T.

Corbyn for a term would be less disastrous than even a soft Brexit under the Tories because we would maintain the customs union. Economically there is no upside to Brexit. No one even claims there is any more.
