The key factor is that we now have a govt with a decent majority - you will not get the same three years of shenanigans that crippled parliament.
It also means for the next five years it is unlikely that we will have another election - again more certainty - there is a big possibility that the Tories are in for the next ten years unless labour sort their shit out.
Yes we donât know what the trade deal will be, but now we have a unified govt, the EU has lost leverage and can no longer divide and conquer like they have over Brexit.
Another factor is that Boris is likely to get a longer honeymoon period whilst Labour fanny about with their leadership. He has seen May squander her first year, he wonât do that. He has momentum, he has the votes he needs in the commons and I expect him to try to get a lot done quickly.
He got 12m votes when promising to respect the result of the referendum, 10m votes when he didnât.
You know how much of a JC fan I was, but ultimately, I think the Labour Party needs someone with his values but is more of a cunt thatâll hit the things JC avoided head on.
Heâs to be admired for trying the collegiate approach, but lesson one for the incoming leader is to purge. Purge like Stalin. The opposition are going to call you Stalinists anyway. May as well get some use out of the term.
Besides, Boris set a big precedent with withdrawing the whip from those 21 MPs. Can you imagine where weâd be if Corbyn had done the same? Most of the AS attacks came from within his own party.
The party was too busy defending its reputation to be able to articulate on its policies.
To this day, I have no idea why a positive, left-centric case for Brexit was not made, especially because a good deal of Corbynâs policy platform required the bending or breaking of EU rules.
Uhm⊠This isa generalisation, but some truth in it I suspect, but I think there are differences between how folks view and left and right politicians depending on your underlying POV. I suspects Tories and closet tories, see Borisâs embarrassing âanticsâ as those of a typical rakish rogue, its just japes, as is his casual racism and lies, all a big forgivable joke, because they donât see those traits as something to be shamed byâŠThey care more for his âdecisivenessâ etc⊠Left wing supporters are appalled by similar allegations and behaviour and its why the unending campaign against Corbyn has worked⊠the anti-Semitism smears etc⊠tories donât give a shit, but many on the left were worriedâŠ
Its not looking for anything, was merely pointing out a fact that challenged your point⊠we remain equally divided, that is for sure, irrespective of how the FPTP divided the seats, that is an indispuatble fact based on etc voteâŠ
I donât have to accept anything⊠its called âprinciplesâ Barry, remember those, ever had any?
There is nothing I can do about at this time, but that is not âaccepting itâ
That is simply called maturity of thought and conviction, which as we have seen, many of the electorate seem to have ditched in favour of voting for a complete cunt
We shall see⊠If there are minimal changes, why is business so happy to be âfree of the shackles of the EU?â seriously, this is about those shackles and they will be stacked in favour of the owners, not the workersâŠ
Well I suppose they have removed any uncertainty that at some point soon, there will be more âfreedomâ for business⊠whether this is a good or bad thing will depend on where you are in the company hierarchy⊠or the consumer.
I suppose, given how poor many folks are, cheaper imported horrendously produced poultry might come in handyâŠ
My partner and I were talking about this, this morning. Would it have been best to go âyou voted leave, we will agree to sort that and here and some really good policies to help those that need it mostâ.
Would they have all gone to Libdems or Green? Or would they just accept that this has to happen but if it does they would prefer Labour doing it than Tories.
I donât think Iâd have jumped ship but it would be good to see how many would have.
They knew that most of their target seats voted Leave. Whatâs the point in pissing them off, the only seats that actually matter, to placate folk in metropolitan heartlands like to vote Labour anyway.
.and the point is? you miss it completely. It may have been far from perfect, but do you think the elite, advocating Brexit and the freedom for business are going to make it better, or worse once all the regulation shifts⊠that allows, for example goods in that are cheaper but lower in quality standards than we have now?.. meaning putting our producers at risk? Seriously, what part of âBIG business elite backing Brexitâ are you not getting? Are they doing this for the social good, or to seize more opportunity to line pockets?
