Fullerene Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 3 hours ago, Day of the Lords said: I'd substitute "some" for "most". I've genuinely never seen a positive case from a Brexiter for leaving other than hiding their obvious dislike for foreigners behind a desire to "take back control". Anyone who still wants Brexit either has a vested financial interest or is a racist thicko. Some voted Leave 3 years ago and feel we need to get it done and out of the way so we can back to normal life. Absolutely no idea what leaving the EU (especially without a deal) will actually mean in practice. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sooky Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 Any chance of the ousted mps forming an anti Brexit party?Can see a new political party tbh I don’t think so. The thing about most of the rebels are that they genuinely regard themselves as conservatives and that their party has been taken away from them. So I think for most it’s either stand as a Tory or don’t stand at all. Which is what makes their stand last night all the more remarkable imo, essentially voluntarily ending their political careers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The geriatrics like Clarke and Soames, perhaps; there's nothing to stop the others standing on an independent conservative ticket in their own constituencies though, particularly if Tory HQ plan on parachuting in a 100% certified gammon candidate to replace them.

A lot of Labour folk think the same. Funny, innit? Not funny ha ha, both parties have moved to the right.

Soames is a typical Tory xenophobe and bigot. Given the absolute scum Davidson has been happy to fill her party with during her tenure, it's really no surprise she admires someone who openly hates women and 'foreigners'. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
