QUOTE (je suis Charlie @ Dec 13 2019, 07:18 PM) I hope she can help bring the party back to the middle ground and fight not just for the party ideals but also for the people she is meant to represent. I think that is something that we can all agree upon.

QUOTE (Andy Capp @ Dec 18 2019, 06:04 PM) Yes.
However, 'she lost' some of her majority, but I think a teddy bear would have polled about the same in Newbury as she did. So what happened to the 'youth quake'? or all the 'voiced support for the other parties? Look at the candidate Labour put forward, scruffy unshaved kid, shows they didn't even try. But yes, a true blue seat.

Gammon. And proud!

QUOTE (TallDarkAndHandsome @ Dec 19 2019, 04:50 PM) Never mind newres. All your predictions about a 2nd referendum and the end of Brexit.. all spot on as usual...😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣👍 Ironic really, because it was within the grasp of those who wanted one. They just had to refuse the election. But history now. It's time to move on. We are where we are and we just have to hope Johnson acts responsibly since all Tory MPs swore an oath of allegiance.

In spite of three years worth of remain enthusiasts explaining why Brexit would be a horrific mistake the Party to staunchly maintain its Brexit position and made it its flagship policy wiped the board. What don't the LibDems and Labour understand about public opinion? The Country, outside the metropolitan bubble, simply wants out of Europe.

Quite and all the bollox about including labour as remain is just that...a lot of labour leave voters would have still voted labour. So my guess 52% leave... funny that it's almost like people are not persuaded by tosh on social media... (and newres)

QUOTE (newres @ Dec 22 2019, 08:00 AM) West Berks voted Remain. In the 2016 referendum yes. Not, it would appear, in the 2019 "people's vote"!
