What the hell is Labour's Brexit policy?
 
http://www.politics.co.uk/blogs/2017...icy-part-1-467

It doesn't actually appear to have one - or indeed one it is prepared to be honest about.

Livia 17-05-2017 09:24 AM

Doesn't matter, really. Their Brexit policy could be that w'ere going to tie helium balloons all around the coast and float Britain further away from Europe. They're never going to be in a position to have to implement it.

Don't count your chickens.... Remember trump?

Livia 17-05-2017 09:39 AM

Corbyn is not as popular with the people as Trump... which speaks volumes in itself.

Some of Bernie Sanders campaign team are now assisting and advising the British Labour party. Pfft you may say. Bernie Sanders didn't do so well in America!

Bernie Sanders, a relatively unknown presidential candidate before 2016, appeared on 57 ballots and gained a whopping 23 states in the first primary. How did this man gain such huge popularity... was it because he had one hell of a campaign team?

Shame that the Labour Party need such support. What does that say about the standard of British Labour Party politicians and campaign teams? Don't quite cut the mustard putting it mildly.

It does it shows there are more idiots around than I thought. Hopefully there aren't as many here and more see through this tory omnishambles of an election campaign.

What is clear is that his manifesto is not as open and honest as he implies. Why not I wonder - couldn't be he has something to hide perhaps!

And we could ask, why doesn't Corbyn get invited on to BBC chat shows with pre-prepared questions. Did you see "The One Show" last night? It was the easiest interview ever but May managed to misjudge pretty much all of it. Why are Labour always expected to work off the hoof with non-scripted questions and answers, whilst the Tories get to do the "cuddle interviews?

Its very easy to give a reply like this but if you are so knowledgable about this statement, then please tell us all, why it is clear?

I look forward to your informative response.

I didn't see it so difficult to comment. I don't even know if there is any substance to your comments, other than personal opinion.

I'm sure if you'd seen it you would disagree and that's ok. What I saw (and yes, this is my personal opinion) was an idea that backfired terribly. She appears to have given up on being part of the Conservative Party and is presenting herself as a "strong and stable" Presidential Candidate. She came across as strange, out of touch and "weird and wobbly". It was like listening to an "Apprentice" candidate bigging herself up.

I respected May when she was Home Secretary but as La Presidenta she is sadly lacking.

And she thinks she has what it takes to negotiate Brexit? What a joke!

user104658 17-05-2017 10:48 AM

What the hell is the Tory Brexit policy?

Kizzy 17-05-2017 10:59 AM

TS... Don't play dumb... It's BREXIT! brexit means BREXIT.

Tom4784 17-05-2017 11:01 AM

Brexit is irrelevant, it is white noise. This election is about whether or not you want the NHS to survive. All other points are irrelevant in comparison because this issue is the one that will cost lives if handled wrong.

Brexit will happen either way and, tbh, you're more likely going to get the kind of Brexit you want with Corbyn's government then May's who has already shown she folds quite easily.

Ah well, if only everyone was as intelligent and enlightened as you, eh?

smudgie 17-05-2017 11:04 AM

As much as I have seen is that there will be no cap on freedom of movement.:shrug:

I bet you do - to attempt to rip it to pieces no less. Unless any of us on here are claiming to be political experts our comments are based on personal opinion and/or posting articles from well informed sorces which is what I did.

So rip away if you believe you can. At best all you can do is post another informed well source that says differently. I await your informed source with interest.

Two blokes have wrote a blog called politics .co .uk... is this your well informed source?

How is their opinion any more valid than DRs?

Absolutely right again.

I also agree with TS too asking what exactly is the Cons brexit policy.

When two people disagree on a topic, that's in principal a factual matter, but in practise rather subjective to interpretation, there are a few possibilities. They know more than you, you know more than them, their brain doesn't work, or your brain doesn't work. Nobody ever assumes the last one!!

Out of interest Dezzy have you read up about the EU and their Transatlantic Trade & Investment Partnership, which is irreversible, CETA and TiSA which are policies based on privatisation of public services including health. The EU would have privatised the NHS sooner or later. So you see the NHS is not an issue as privatisation is inevitable in the EU.
