To be more accurate, Corbyn and Labour say they are going to have a spending spree. Bribing the parents of middle class university students doesn't come cheap and that is just one item in the shopping basket.

Do you really think that one is not connected to the other?
If the transition deal goes through we can then try to get a final deal that could drag on for years if the EU wanted it to and could potentially end up with us just saying **** it in the end anyway. If it does not go through! Who knows what could happen? The thing is that nothing will be settled whether the transition deal goes through or not.
Bye the way the transition deal going through (if it does) does not mean we are effectively out of the EU it just means that we wont have any say in what happens in the future of the EU while we are trying to get our final deal.
XDXD change the record Kerr, it really is getting quite tiresome, do you actually think that constantly repeating the same unfounded tripe ....Corbyn this, Corbyn that....1970's......unions......middle class students...... and repeat, actually means owt to anyone.......;DXD
etc etc
I voted remain but I think it was mainly out of fear of what the likes of Mogg, Davis et al on the further right of your party would do to employment and environmental rights and standards if free of the EU.
My ideal situation would be a leave on soft brexit Norway-ish terms with the EU, protecting the single market and cu as far as possible to protect the economy but with a labour government under the direction of the last manifesto so that we can improve our rights and protections further than possible under eu legislation. Obviously the ability to negotiate these under our own laws would depend hugely on what compromise we could reach if that ever became a possibility. But that's the ideal!
Next option would be to Remain so we retain eu protections on rights and environments from the nut jobs on the exteme of your party. This would restrict their ability to further erode workers/social/environmental rights as they would so like if they really overthrow May and get their No Deal.
Final option is the May deal but hope that Big Lad's paranoia turns out true and tat the evil eu keep us locked in the customs union and single market until we're all dead.
So, no, I'm not remain, no. Bit more complicated than that.
Kind of where i'm at, the thing with kerr and gm and any other torys though is this, they're so obsessively focussed on Corbyn and ever so willing to accept the tripe that's been thrown at him in an orchestrated campaign through the media, that they're missing the real enemy, the real enemy is in among their own party, the mogg's and Johnsons and any other ultra right wing loon who care very little for the country at large, let alone it's people, and they really should take a long hard look at what these loons are really after....i won't hold my breath mind you...
