Brexit has well and truly begun!

[G-Unit]

I think it is a bit more complicated than that.  Why have so many Labour Voters decided to vote Tory?

They want Brexit done.

They want Brexit done.

Also, they felt that Corbyn is unpatriotic.

Incredible to think he is still Labour leader isn’t it??

You ain't seen nothin' yet... just wait until flat-vowelling Mancunian Mrs. Merton takes over...

I do hope the next labour leader is Jess Phillips, that really would kill the party off IMO

She hates men & can barely string a sentence together.

I wouldn't even rape her....

Topic please everyone!

And a very Happy New Year to one and all as we enter a brand new decade.

Faith, can you explain why only one Labour MP has been returned to represent the entire Scottish electorate if he is the champion for the working class and the  public services and the decents days work etc.
Jeremy to blame?

If only.  I'm not holding my breath.  But something good always comes from disasters.

I’m afraid you’d have to ask the Scottish voters that question Erngath. However Labour’s dwindling fortunes in Scotland predate Corbyn by quite some years, the biggest loss of seats being in the 2015 election under Ed Miliband when they lost 40 seats. Talking to my friends who still live in Scotland it is Scottish Labour’s performance rather than the national party as a whole that has been the vote loser.

The pound sterling is bouncing back already as predicted, the only way is up for the UK now!

If things develop the way I think they will, the UK won't be last country to ditch the EU.

I really don't think so.
My husband is from a very strong Labour support family/ background and there is no doubt that the UK Labour party with or without Jeremy has lost their stronghold in Scotland.
I would never have ever envisaged a time when only one Labour MP would represent the entire Scottish nation at Westminster.
I read today that Monica Lenon ?  now wants to institute a separate Scottish Labour party away from the UK one?
Perhaps a way torward for the Labour party n Scotland?

France has been very good to me.  Far more kind than Britain ever was.  But then France has always largely ignored The EU.  Such a pity that Britain didn't do the same.

Let’s hope you’re right John.

I can only comment on the conversations I have had with my friends as I said but I absolutely agree that Labour has lost their historical support in Scotland and tbh without that support it will be hard for the party to regain power in the whole of the U.K. I’d would be interested to know if your husband and his family voted Labour in the last election and if not why not ?

Let’s hope that you don’t suffer in France any of the abhorrent xenophobic behaviour that many of my Eastern European friends have had to endure here in the U.K after we leave.
