I just wish Leavers would actually enter into some sort of debate about what sort of Brexit they want. I'm still not hearing any. All they do is stumble between denial and rage.

Fed up of repeating myself, Brexit means Brexit lol.

Denial.

Maybe they simply don't want to debate with you, which is their right.

Brexit means brexit means frreedom of movement and access to the single market (perhaps with contributions to the EU). What's all the argument about? Couldn't be clearer. Surely we can all agree with that?

Richmond By-election result last night was remarkable. Remember UKIP weren't standing too. Labour lost their deposit and are floundering

What it says to me is that that "Leave" Tory MPs in "Remain" South-east areas are now looking over their shoulders. Theresa May is in a similar type of constituency. As May, like Johnson, seems to be far more interested in her own career than actually standing up for her principles, I think her mind might have been brought sharply into focus. Less chance of a General Election now. Their slim majority has got slimmer.

As I keep on saying, Brexit is fascinating. The Leavers' "magic wand Brexit", just isn't going to achieve a thing. The government is in disarray. May is trying to control the message - except there is no message.

I just wish Leavers would actually enter into some sort of debate about what sort of Brexit they want. I'm still not hearing any. All they do is stumble between denial and rage.



Then try reading and listening to what others have said on this very thread.

You might have to extract your head first though.

They sound terrified:

Conservative MP and Leave campaigner Michael Gove

"I think one of the striking things about Richmond Park is that it is a part of the country that voted very heavily to remain during the referendum as the rest of the country voted to leave. So given that the Liberal Democrat candidate - and congratulations to her - secured less than half the vote in a  70% Remain constituency, I don't think we can interpret too much from this particular result about Brexit. This was a local by-election with specific factors. Congratulations to Sarah Olney, deep commiserations to Zac Goldsmith but it would be a profound mistake for anyone to over-interpret the result."

 Seems pretty simple to me.
 Before the referendum 52% of voters were disenchanted.
 Since the referendum only 48% of voters are disenchanted.
 Sounds like a result for any government to make progress.  8)
