QUOTE (Turin Machine @ May 5 2019, 06:01 PM) It's not surprising that if newres considers himself to be the remainer creme da la crème that most of them were to lazy / stupid / apathetic to find their way to a simple petition. 😅 😂 You have to give him some respect... if I kept on being proved wrong I may have given up.. not sure if he is just a WUM or incredibly stupid. Probably the latter...

QUOTE (Turin Machine @ May 5 2019, 10:23 PM) And you said it wasn't a party. It’s a single issue lobby. Even more so than UKIP. If we get to a general election it will merely split the Tory vote. There’s no evidence of it attracting Labour voters.

Yeah no chance of any people in Labour areas which were 70% brexit at the 2016 election...voting for the Brexit party...😂😂😂 Do you actually think before you come out with the effluent that you type?

QUOTE (newres @ May 5 2019, 03:28 PM) DJDick was brilliant yesterday. All that Daily Mail reading exploded yesterday all over his keyboard. How does anyone get that angry just because someone has a different view? He didn't get that angry "just because you have a different view". If you read his post.................... "With your inept social skills, inability to put forward an intelligent view rather than attack other's in a childish way, and your general predisposition to be an idiot." He also said.... "If there are any Remainer adults here I'm perfectly happy to listen to them."So, it appears it is your attitude and rudeness that prevents him and many others from posting their views on here for MATURE debate.

There’s no evidence of it attracting Labour voters. It's a party, look, they even left you a hidden clue, they called it the Brexit Party. Tricky to find I know but then that's the trouble with dem pesky little brexiteers, sneaky like weasels.

Do you actually think before you come out with the effluent that you type? Which areas were “70% Brexit”? Very few, besides which it doesn’t mean people will vote for a party in a general election that has just one policy. They aren’t all stupid racists.

I see you modified your post after finding out some areas were over 70 percent...😂 https://www.shropshirestar.com/news/uk-news...-eu-referendum/And then got all upset and called everyone a racist again...🤣🤣🤣

Learn something every day, 78.6% of people in Lambeth are racists! Who'd a thunk that? Probably a nazi stronghold as well.

QUOTE (je suis Charlie @ May 4 2019, 09:12 AM) UKIP virtually died when Nigel quit, however, saying that, their strength has always been in sending MEP's to Brussels. Now we have the Brexit party who are widely tipped to do the same. What I and others were surprised at yesterday was the almost catastrophic failure of labour to punish the Tories. The lib Dems turned out again to be the party of the protest vote with surprising results for the Indies. Mays election will be interesting to watch. I was thoroughly entertained by yesterday's events, it's an (interesting) time for politics. Actually, having looked at the results your assertion re ukip is only partially correct when compared to 2015. Compared to 2018 the Conservative and Labour vote share fell equally by 7%, while UKIP gained 1%. Given the enormous swing to the independents and the fact that Labour came out for a second referendum before the polls, this seems more like an anti-politician result than anything obviously Brexity.
