    I haven’t voted in a GE since 2001, neither has my partner. It’s make your mind up time for us. Worst thing would be a minority government or another Coalition one.
    So many issues that need sorting besides Brexit.
    It could well be a People v Parliament Election.
    True there’s other issues other than brexit but ever since the last election the only argument labours been banging the drum on since then is preventing brexit and like iv said before until brexit is sorted other issues will take a back seat. I voted labour last time because I think they had some great ideas and respected the Eu referendum, but to be honest I’m not sure I can trust them to do what they say on other issues when they can’t do what they said on brexit. Does that make any sense?

    Haven't the other parties been banging the brexit drum with equal fervor though Silly? It is by far the most prominent issue affecting everyone's live in the upcoming years. I think labour have been supportive of leaving the EU and respecting the vote, but the problem is that their preferred method of leaving the EU is quite different to other parties, and the other parties are quite different to Labour's. That's why it's all so ****ed and is most likely to be despite a GE, simply because I can't see an election, where people revert to voting for traditional issues as well as Brexit, returning anything other than a minority government and each of the parties simply taking up the arguments that they had before the election. Unfortunately. But hey, let's give it a go.
