    A New Political Force?

    Thankfully Corbyn’s Labour is now finished.

    The gang of seven are also dangerous for the Tory Party.

    Although I’m not a “Remainer” I do think that a new party of substance would be very important in this country.

    I’ll admit,I like Chukka and I think he’s an impressive guy.

    I sort of hope they kick this Trotsky Labour to death and bring some realism to the complacent Tory Party.

    I can see Tom Watson either leading a coup against Corbyn or joining the new group.

    So many things to be envious about from Oz but 7 PM’s in the last 10 years is not one of them. Try popularist policies all the time but still can’t keep themselves in the job for any length of time.

    I hope so, I truly believe the two party system we have just doesn't work for us anymore. Labour & Cons are too far from the centre ground.

    The fact this is the worst government in living memory, and they are still ahead in the polls speaks volumes about Labour.

    I'd like to see some more moderate MPs join from all parties. If not, all this will do is split the labour vote and probably strengthen the Tories.

    There is no democratic mandate for a no deal Brexit. Which is where we're heading.

    Stop hijacking the word 'democracy'. It's not undemocratic to have a democratic vote.

    Thats strange because my voting form said either leave or remain in EU. There was nothing about a deal. Did you have a different form?

    I fully understood when voting that we could end up leaving with no deal.

    This fact was obvious and not hidden.

    Do you think every one of the 17m people voted for a no deal Brexit?

    Its not leave voters' fault, the referendum was flawed.

    A vote to leave doesn't give any mandate for parliament, as we are seeing now. If it did they would have implemented it.

    And if you are so keen to just 'leave' then you must surely be supporting May's deal, as this is what her deal does. Did all 17m people vote in favour of that?
