OUT WITH A DEAL EATING OUR CAKE AND LOVING IT suck it up remoaners
And like a typical anti democracy remoaner he decided the will of the people should be ignored the minute the democratic result was in total fecking hypocrite 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Despite it being voted in to law by the commons the spineless two faced remoaner MPs have totally abandoned any morals and decided to ignore the will of the British people.
It will be remembered and no election or referendum will ever be the same again in this country.
The one thing that will come is a massive surge in the popularity of UKIP or a similar party in the future who stand for the 52%.
Happy Days.

General election 2019: Brexit Party will not stand in Tory seats, says Nigel Farage
It’s a bit weird this one.
Because he’s still standing in the seats the Tories have to win to gain a majority given their likely losses in Scotland, NI (via a unionist pact) and London. And he takes more votes from Tories than from Labour.
I’m not certain the impact is what he describes. Which is quite possibly absolutely deliberate on his part. A sop to his supporters who want a pact with the Tories, while still making a hung parliament a possibility, keeping him in a position of media focus.
A cynic may say that his supporters are being played for fools...

Maybe this is just the first stage, and will still pull out of seats where the Tories may have a chance of turning over a small majority.

The Tories have an issue with losing seats to LibDems though. And anything which looks like they are in bed with the brexit party gets centrist Tories to the LibDems instead.
In Tory / Labour marginals they will still struggle to find Labour leavers voting en masse for the Tory party.
I suspect this is all about optics (and possibly they simply don’t have enough candidates).

The swings and roundabouts of politics. Who knows?
Personal opinion I think it's more about your last comment

Okay
Does this make much difference?
Johnson needs to win seats he doesn't currently have..
I think only in that last week he was saying that the Johnson deal wasn't delivering Brexit and he would fight them in all the seats but now he's unilaterally given way to them. So does that mean he now thinks the deal is ok ?
Tesla to site European headquarters in Germany. Billion pound investment in Giga plant and engineering research centre. UK was ruled out due to Brexit. Well done Farage.
I'll correct you there. A small portion of the whole of the UK decided to ( REMOVED) things up for future generations all because they don't like immigrants.

People in port Talbot jealous they didn't have a steel job, people in the north east jealous they didn't have a Nissan job,etc etc, working class people supporting an extreme tory view which will result in their lives being even worse, Murdoch did a good job on them

Nah, he's just a shit house.

That he is, massively so, but we shouldn't lose sight that this is good news for Johnson and his merry band of islamophobes and racists. It reduces their down side on their own patch, which was a real risk. The odds swing in their favour now.
Today's scandal is that BBC are doing a leaders special featured on Farage next week. That's just outrageous given his party isn't a national one any more than the Communist Party or Monster Raving Loony Party are.

I agree that the odds have swung in Johnson’s favour. I think that the Brexit party will now leak support in the Labour and Lib Dem held seats that they are contesting as well. Where those votes will go is crucial but I suspect the Tories will get a net boost in those seats too.

It’s not only Farage. It’s the Tory party and people who shout ‘we want brexit’ every ten minutes.
They wanted to put the factory here. Johnson thought he’d persuaded them to do so. Which is one of the reasons he’s doing a speech in an electric car factory today - he thought he’d be able to announce Tesla as the decision was being made this week. Which is an enormous investment. Not only cars, but batteries as well.
But it’s all been thrown away.

On newsnight last night, Richard Burgon mentioned Thatcher twice in a minute or two.
I think they’ve a new strategy aimed at people in the North, Wales etc who are thinking of voting Conservative that they’re not only voting for Brexit or Johnson, they’re voting for Thatcher. Hoping that it makes them think twice given the continued toxicity of her name in many places.

That's all well and good, but you're supposed to be watching him act out making a cup of tea. Please try and keep to their script
Duh, that was supposed to be in response to the post on electric car plant visit, that we may not get to hear as much about now.

That may be worth a try as is the “Johnson’s a puppet of Trump” line. Unfortunately not only is Thatcher’s name toxic in many parts on the country but Corbyn’s is as well.
My (now grown up) children have often asked me how Thatcher kept winning elections. I think people will look back on this era and wonder how Labour kept losing them.

If the Labour Party was led by a moderate, they’d win an absolute landslide.
Unfortunately, Corbynites seem to have decided that they see no difference in a moderate, left of centre government and a hard right government. None at all.
10,000 direct jobs at that Tesla factory. Tens of thousands more in the supply chain. At the forefront of new technology. And all thrown away.
