That should have sent warning lights blaring but the people that voted for the tories did so anyway. If any of their voters are unhappy with the way brexit is going then they can only blame themselves for ignoring the signs that the Tories would inevitably backpeddle.

Any attempts to blame the left is just pure diversionary bull****. People ****ed up by voting tories because they bought into the 'strong and stable' **** despite all evidence showing that the Tory government go back on everything they said they would do. Too many people chose to vote in ignorance of the facts and a likely soft brexit is exactly what they voted for.
A common theme in many of your political posts are "only have their selves to blame", Trump, Tories, Ukip, Brexit etc etc

In other words your disdain for anyone who does not think like you is actually rather disturbing

What ifs are meaningless, what MIGHT have happened if Labour does not lessen the fact that the Tory voters that voted Tory thinking they'd get the brexit they wanted did so while ignoring the signs.

You're talking about possibilities but the reality of the matter is that we are most likely getting a soft brexit and it's exactly what the people voted for whether they like it or not. They voted for a flip floppy government and they got a flip floppy take on Brexit.

Who else could they vote for. An antisemetic hard-Left hypocrite. Knowing what we all know now about both I expect a vote would be very similar. Lack of choice is the real issue.

Seems to me if we are to believe that the left is supposed to reign in their own extreme influences, then the principle should be that the right has to reign in their own as well... it can't be put all responsibility on the left. Not all our issues can be blamed entirely on one side, naturally, but we all share a bit of responsibility in keeping the whole thing more towards the center... is my first thought.

An irrelevant one since they arent running the show. Trying to attack me by bkeating on about labour is ultimately a waste of time.

People still voted for this government and their approach to Brexit. Crying about what ifs as a distraction is pointless.

This country is not a two party country. People cant complain if they vote for a party with a history of flip flopping and then they flip on an issue. We were never getting a hard brexit with May yet people voted for the tories. Votes have consequences.

A vote for one of the other smaller parties would likely have led to Corbyn getting in which would be an even worse disaster in the minds of many. As I said a lack of choice.

There was a choice though and many people that wanted a hard brexit went for an option in which they wouldn't get it.

I think it just goes to show, you should vote for who you believe in, you can't vote against someone because you'll end up in this situation where you lose anyway.
