Voting Intentions

I suppose it's only logical that folk who voted for Brexit despite there being no plan on how to implement it. Will then vote for a Brexit party with no plan on how to implement anything. Having said that I certainly wouldn't be voting for the Tories or Labour if I was voting in England.
I certainly don`t intend to vote for a party whose only plan is to stay in the EU.

Which party is that then?
Tories - have a whole manifesto of policies and a membership that’s spilt over Brexit
Labour - likewise.
Lib Dem - oppose Brexit alongside have many other policies.
Greens - plenty of other policies
SNP/ Plaid - likewise
Change/ TIG - oppose Brexit, claim “politics is broken” (who would disagree with that?), and have published a manifesto, I understand, but I’ve not read it yet.
UKIP/ Brexit party - both oppose being in the EU.

There is absolutely no doubt in my mind that the E.U. MEP elections will in effect be the 2nd referendum.

It is highly likely that the Brexit party will win a lot of seats, maybe even more than UKIP did in 2014.

Virtually everyone who voted Leave will vote against any party who either dithers or states they want to Remain, PLUS a whole load of others who are sick of it all and want to move on.

So it’s no good the Tories, Labour or any of the other parties pretending this isn’t a 2nd referendum and carrying on as if is an irrelevance. If they were to ignore the results and to try to continue to stay in the E.U. , they will find that as most of our MEPs will be Brexiter’s , it’s pretty much a waste of time remaining in AND the rest of the E.U. will regard our continued being part of it a huge thorn in their side.

So much so, that if I were the E.U., I’d tell us to Bugger off and stop wasting their time as well as ours!

Then they’ll come back offering various deals, which we can decide whether to take or not.

Probably will. A great deal of that delicious pie in the sky that was promised! Talking of promises - Fat Boy Johnson's preliminary court hearing for being a lying slime ball is tomorrow at 14:00.

On a scale of 10 who are the most slippery?
Adonis, Chakrabati (excuse spelling), Corbyn, Gove, Starmer, must vie for top marks
Note,this is only about who you wouldn't buy a used car from, not who you dislike.
Any others?

Have a look at the Companies House listing for "Farage Limited" and then tell me you'd do any sort of deal with Nigel.
