Agree with your points on Brexit, and as I said, an economic jolt is likely, and we can never predict its consequences. Think you'll see the Johnson shift the Conservatives to the middle, but simply based on arithmetic, I cannot see any prospective Labour leader looking at the next five years and seeing it as anything but an interim position.
That voting system is no better the Brexit vote proved that.
That system also Elects extremists and leads to a constantly hung Parliament
which would be terrible for the Country, look what coalition governments did for Italy.
Well spotted !Hold on, worst Labour leader since 1935 and followed by a ginger. Now why does that sound familiar?
Doesn’t really matter. Labour are finished!
A new party needs to come out of this “The People’s Democratic Centre Left Party” for want of a better name.
A lot depends on what the 'hung parliament' see as their main task - too many elements just push their own political agenda and take little account of what is best for nation - party first, people second, and that's only where there are two options. Add more in, and the people get shoved further back down the line.
No offence taken. I am a dyed in the wool Socialist, I truly believe it is the best way for our country to be run. I don't want another Blairite or a right wing Labour party, it is anathema to me. I am what I am, I will remain what I am and I will live in hope that one day people will see things the way I see them.
Johnson is on the telly talking about thumping majorities, yet only 45% of the those who bothered to vote, voted Tory. Our system as you quite rightly point out needs drastic reform but the system suits the governing party so it will not change.
The system also suits Labour - that they do not support electoral reform is a damning shame on that institution.
