First Past the Post
never makes it easy for New Party's

UKIP did well with 2 MP's, back then,
that were Hissed at
as they sat down in Parliament,
Back then before David Cameron
rushed to call the in and out referendum



As 2 more Conservative MP's
were getting ready to jump over to UKIP



So David saved his Party
thinking he could win it
Dragging in the then USA President
made his case worse

Corbyn is being cunning about Brexit. He wants a soft brexit but refuses to be clear bc doesn't want to alienate remainers.

Under the first-past-the-post system a new party will always have an uphill struggle to get a decent representation in parliament.
Anyway tho, I'm not sure there's a need for another centrist party (LibDems being one already). The other two parties regularly move towards and away from the centre and would periodically squeeze out the new party making its life even more difficult.
