"I was talking about this with my son last night and he made the point “what does it matter what one person (Corbyn) wants in terms of remain or leave if he is going to put it to a referendum”. -Matt" So true matt, but many people need that assurance. Its was correct for him to give them that. | |||

"I was talking about this with my son last night and he made the point “what does it matter what one person (Corbyn) wants in terms of remain or leave if he is going to put it to a referendum”. -Matt" It's been in mind a somewhat too. The party makes it clear how they decide their policies and overall direction, so really only those who choose to remain ignorant of that, or who like to buy into the scare tactics of the right wing media, must get obsess over it. The party is fairly moderate and it really becomes apparent how moderate they are, when compared with the extremists who are hell bent on quitting the EU. | |||

Also, extra comedy value if you read it as typed. So no punctuation, no pauses. Just blurted out in one angry stream. | |||

"If the labour party are going to re negotiate a deal its nice to know if they are for leaving or remaining before they do." Why? Even the best possible deal is still a shit sandwich. | |||

"If the labour party are going to re negotiate a deal its nice to know if they are for leaving or remaining before they do." Neutrality is a position, and then carrying out the will of the people is more important the JC, because listens to both sides. He wants to bring us back together. Only extremists would want you to choose a side. Level headed reasonable people compromise. Are you an extremist? | |||

"If Swinson hadn't have turned up the headlines would have read "Corbyn annihilated"" You are right the headlines probably would say that....why? Because media outlets and newspapers are all owned by very wealthy people who would have to pay a bit more tax than the rest of us. Ofcourse they want to do anything they can to stop corbyn and have been doing that since he became leader. | |||

"The whole system is a joke !!! We vote them in based on the promises they make they don’t deliver and are not accountable for any of it !! It needs to change and if this election goes wrong we will have people taking to the streets just like we see happening in other countries because everyone seems very passionate about this subject more so than ever before, we constantly get lied to and fed false promises !! Make them accountable!!! If they don’t deliver on at least a certain amount of what they promise within a certain time then take it back to another vote !!! We have a huge gap for a new party that people can relate to and trust !! Personally I normally go labour but really think we will be taking a huge step backwards this time, I don’t actually mind Boris but struggle to vote conservative so my vote will be going to a smaller party that I feel are in touch with things that are important to me " . You know that 100,000 signatures thing... Well I reckon along those lines would be good for the public to throw out a sitting government, or force a party to ditch there elected tool... I reckon 100,000 might be slightly chaotic so better make it 12 signatures | |||

"The fact that Corbyn has said he will be neutral is a relief that we can at least see a way to ending brexit ,,, get an actual agreement with The E.U. (it could even be Mays or Johnsons deal but I hope not ) then have a vote so people aren't voting for something written on the side of a bus but an actual document ,,,, then ....the crucial important part ,,,,,The Prime Minister of the day ( in this case Corbyn) implements that vote ( irrespective of which way it goes ) the very next day ,,something the conservative party should have been ready to do in June 2016 instead of giving us 3 years of dither and delay ,with their own MPs ( eg Johnson ) voting against their own deal ..there will be no scope for any MP to stop brexit under Labours plan as they will immediately implement the result the following day " To be fair the Tories couldn’t have implemented Brexit the very next day in 2016 as they hadn’t the foggiest of a plan. -Matt | |||

Why people found that so difficult to grasp is beyond me | |||

"In fact they were an incredibly informed electorate. " That’s the reality, politicians cannot hide behind bluff and bluster like last time. More people are questioning what is being said, who’s its being said by and their track record on issues in the past. The electorate aren’t going to be taken for a ride like in 2015 and 2017. | |||

"cant believe theres any people on here that would actually vote labour can you imagine abbott doing the sums for the country we would be skint after the first 6 hrs are you all fucking stupid they will bankrupt the country within 3 month One of the 5%" What is wrong with being one of the 5%, are you against ambition? Consider this connundrum. Lets assume someone living in London is one of the 5% but brings up 3 young daughters paying for their everyneed, the youngest having special needs. He has never asked for help or receives any. He is considered an enemy of the state by Corbyn even though he pays more paye than the average national wage. A young couple both earning £40,000/ annum with no ambition but massively better off, will moan about the inequality of it all and how can one person earn so much. Morons will point at the guy in the 5% and say he is gready and needs to pay more tax when all he is doing is looking after his family and will do whatever he has to do to acheive it. Shows how detached people who just look at a number are from real life and resentful of those with ambition they are. | |||

It’s laughable when a man turns around and says he never asks for help, thinking they are self made. Well him, his wife and kids have to go hospital and get treated and medicated for illnesses? For free?, does he take his rubbish to the dump by himself, does he educate his children also by himself? How about the streets? Did he build a road? Does he police the streets also? If the man thinks he is self sufficient, he’s so stupid. One more time from the top for the thickest in society “YOU PAY TAXES FOR SERVICES!” If no one paid their fair share then the services disappear. Which has happened consistently under the tories for 9 years. If I ever earned 80K + I would be happy to pay my fair share, if because that me doing my civic duty. And yes to that man you’re being a selfish cunt! | |||

Why people found that so difficult to grasp is beyond me " Because until last night he had avoided answering. He had been giving the mantra of referendum, fairness and implementing what the people want every time he was asked it. It was only in the last minute of questioning he said he'd stay neutral. It's no different to his criticism of May for the past 3yrs (in all it's forms), though it is worse as we do not know what the deal is going to be. Instead we are to take him for his word that - he will be granted an extension from the EU for 9 months, that he will fathom a deal, that it will not only be better than the present but it will pass through parliament given the division and the public will not be influenced one way or the other by his campaigning. To stay neutral whilst campaigning, knowing you want to keep your job, knowing the economy depends on the outcome, knowing 1/2 the electorate wants to exit, knowing your unions want to stay, knowing MP's want to stay and leave, knowing your supporters are for and against you means political pressure will dictate he will get off the fence very quickly. It is an impossible position to stay neutral which shouldn't need explaining, though I could be wrong as he's proven to dance on it very well in the past. | |||

To often I hear the same old line that people can't be trusted to vote on complicated matters, yet Switzerland manages just fine, they have referendums on practically everything, if you treat citizens as children don't be surprised when they throw the toys out of the pram. | |||

"How can he be 'neutral' when he's been going to Brussels meeting with any number of the five unelected EU presidents and Barnier, among others? Sir Kier Starmer had already stated publicly on The Vine Show, that he'd deliver a Brexit that would favour the 48% remain vote. So Labours main Brexit negotiator is anything but neutral. Any Labour campaign would have to be approved by Jezza. So how can he possibly remain neutral? Neutral = cop out " What version of Brexit did you vote for ? The Boris deal, No deal?

Brexit was doomed from 24/06/16. When you have 16+ million and both Westminster houses obstructing the political will of 17+ million, one champagne swilling Islington Socialist sitting on a fence isn't really going to make much difference or change now is it? To give you an idea, YouTube Luke 'Ming' Flanagan MEP and TTIP also the Sinn Fein MEP video, neither connected to leave or remain in the UK, then Prez Obama and his appearance on YT in relation to the EU & TTIP. Add to that, 5 unelected presidents, three if whom are or have been investigatef for Fraud, Tusk is the latest EU Army Lisbon Treaty EuroGendFor deployed in both Paris & Catalonia The multi million shuffle between Brussels and Strausberg that costs European taxpayers millions everytime it happens Mass youth unemployment across the EU I don't need any Westminster politico or party leader to influence me, I do my own research SBD then act accordingly. Sorry to be a bore but you did ask. And yes, my family is staunch, coalfield Labour, but even they're doubtful about saint Jeremy. | |||

"If, and it's a big IF. IF Corbyn does become PM, he says, he will hold a Referendum, and accept the result, and the will of the people. What will his Campaign message/strategy be? Or, will he go into hibernation on his allotment. Or, will he stay at home making Jam, till it's all over. Only surfacing when the result is known. We deserve to know.

Or, will he go into hibernation on his allotment. Or, will he stay at home making Jam, till it's all over. Only surfacing when the result is known. We deserve to know. " Its simple. He will spend 3 months negotiating a deal with the EU, All the details of that deal will be released to the public, then a referendum on that deal or remain will be put back to the people. Labour wont be campaigning for either and will stay neutral and let the people decide, which ever way it goes the very next day labour will implement the result. JC does not need to campaign for leaving or remaining because which ever way this goes one half of the country will be pissed and better we have a PM that was neutral over boris who is die hard brexit or jo swindon die hard remain...there will be no bridging the country if either of those got in. JC is taking the best and most commom sense stance on this, a second referendum is the only way this can move forward with the least civil unrest. Brexit aside the labour manifesto is pretty good too. Torys release theirs tomorrow so lets see how they compare. | |||

"I am a life long labour supporter. I have been involved with many industrial disputes over The years for workers rights. I voted leave. On a simple vote in / out. No backstop no trade deal no border. In or out I voted labour 2017 on the commitment to up hold the referendum. My local mp has opposed every step of brexit. Mr C now says second referendum he will honour the vote on either stay or leave on certain terms. That is not being neutral that is a loaded question a win win for remainers. Sorry i will not vote labour again. Plaid cymru even worse than the lib dems. Tory no way so it will be the brexit party for me" Well done mate....you obviously understand what democracy means | |||

Mr C now says second referendum he will honour the vote on either stay or leave on certain terms. That is not being neutral that is a loaded question a win win for remainers. Sorry i will not vote labour again. Plaid cymru even worse than the lib dems. Tory no way so it will be the brexit party for me" You should have said you were voting for the brexit party at the top of your post. Then we wouldn't have to have continued reading. | |||

"It's exactly that dismissive attitude towards right wingers / Leavers that is causing such a surge in Tory support. You won't be laughing after the election. Labour are going to be crushed." I'm not a Labour voter/supporter. I'm not predicting anything positive to come out of this election. So have no expectations that I will be laughing. I disagree that a dismissive attitude is causing a surge of support for the Tories! | |||

No backstop no trade deal no border. In or out" Wait. This part makes no sense. Unless you were involved in the industrial disputes, and we're fighting against workers rights? Also the simple vote in/out. Sure. But did you not realise that there was a fuck load of stuff to sort out on order to leave? IE a deal, border with Ireland etc etc etc. | |||

If it was only leave voters who were effected, fair enough, but you've inflicted this onto the whole country, those who were too young to vote, those who didn't vote and those of us who voted remain. | |||

"Removing red tape" was one of the points the leavers campaigned on. Removing environmental protection and workers rights are the primary reason the likes of Aaron Banks and Tim Martin backed leave. I mean, are you seriously suggesting that removing this kind of red tape isn't one of the primary reasons behind brexit? It's not only about currency trading, tax avoidance, shitty trade deals with the US, and destabilising the UK and Russia. | |||

And maybe think harder about why there is a housing problem in this country. Is it. A. Some pesky foreigners. B. Tory, and before them Labour party policies that fail to address the issue in any meaningful way. Answer as if you've never read the Daily Mail/Express/Sun. | |||

"How do you know we will be poorer." We are already poorer. 600-800 million pounds a week poorer thanks to brexit. Do you think having less money in the economy won't make us poorer, won't leave less money for housing, NHS, schools, roads, etc etc? | |||

I'm dyslexic, so the typos make your post too difficult to read. Why are you obsessed with the specific rights which will be removed? As far as I know, none have been specified thus far. And aside form you, I don't know anyone suggesting that this isn't one of the primary drivers behind brexit. | |||

Many of them chose not to come because they didn't want to start a course that they may not have been able to finish. That was based on their perception. We all have self motivation to stay.

"So where do your students come from I don't have any students. I'm not a teacher or lecturer. You quoted an 80% drop in overseas students that will close the company after brexit. No, 80 drop was in a specific college in Devon. As an example. I've been pointed to some information which shows a net increase in foreign students. Especially form China. So I need to read that. And the company I work for is winding down. I'm trying to help. But I don't know what it is that you don't know. China is not in the EU" A+ in geography. | |||

"Who is attacking anyone. You dont like the replys you are getting thats up to you" So to bring the conversation back to the topic, I have a couple of questions for you. How has membership of the EU damaged your life? The reason I ask that is because the EU invested huge amounts of money in developing Wales and I am intrigued that so many Welsh people just don’t acknowledge that. Secondly if it is true about the council houses going to the EU citizens before your daughter didnt you think to take it up with your mp and mep because if it was council policy there would have to be a policy document to justify it. Perhaps your daughters need wasnt as great as the others or maybe somebody wasn’t telling the truth. If you cant get a council house then maybe its not the immigrants fault, maybe it’s the fault of the cunts who sold them all off and then stopped building any new ones? | |||

The only difference they'll be taking from the small and medium size businesses, the backbone of this country. And cripple the economy many small business will fold due to the taxing them.

Use our social funds to claim everything and demand free dental treatment. Driving any driver must take a uk driving test if they stay in the uk for a year. I drive for a living i own a car which i tax and insure. How many " visitors " are insured" Ah ha.

Are you calling non-british people visitors, and suggesting that they don't insure their vehicles? | |||

"Corbyns neutrality over brexit is a sign of a weak leader to me ........He’d liked to say he doesn’t want brexit but knows he will lose all the labour voters who voted to leave .........The way he panders to the student ...ban the bombers....anti English voters is pathetic......I’m a life long labour voter who voted to leave .......Why don’t labour seem to think we don’t count anymore?????" Corbyn wants Brexit more than Boris, he won't be able to persue his marxist and nationalisation policies under EU law. Remember he is a Benn acolyte from the era when the labour party vehemently opposed joining the EU in the first place. It's his party that don't want Brexit and he is just trying to placate them cos he doesn't want a leadership challenge against him. His ideal scenario is boris gets us to leave with no deal and he wins election and can blame everything on conservatives and Boris and set himself up as saviour | |||

"It really says something about labour when their latest brexit policy is to have no Brexit policy. WTF ? They have a clear Brexit policy. The idea it's hard to understand is just a lie sold by the right wing." . The brexit policy of the Tories has been so well thought out that they are on their 3rd leader since the referendum and it is the current leader's votes in parliament against his own parties deal that means we are still in the EU , with the current plan to place a border between the UK and the UK . although it might not be because the brexit secretary said there would be no checks then said there would and the prime minister who agreed to checks in the deal told businesses in northern Ireland to put the paperwork in the bin ,,so brexit means brexit , unless it doesn't , well it might do , I think it does or perhaps it doesn't | |||

"Are you actually reading my replies Yes. And you're not being clear. So I'm trying to figure out why you don't like Eastern Europeans. Something to do with car insurance and dentist appointments?" I have a friend who comes from an Eastern Block country who flies back to his home country for dental work because it is cheaper, quicker and the standard of dental care is higher. The net profit from taxes is statistically higher than benefit costs despite what the local rag is telling you. And there is a demographic in this country who are not even foreigners who are a law unto themselves. So now it's winter and the leaves have fallen look to the side of the road and see all the plastic thrown out of car windows. Who threw that? Foreigners? We all love our country so much but treat it like a giant dustbin. Who are ww going to blame for all our problems when the "visitors" have gone? | |||

Any opposition has been on the basis to get into government by any means. Labour has not wanted to touch Brexit, on the basis of a nationalistic agenda - not on the basis of upholding Brexit, which is what we are seeing now. | |||

We have a huge gap for a new party that people can relate to and trust !!

Personally I normally go labour but really think we will be taking a huge step backwards this time, I don’t actually mind Boris but struggle to vote conservative so my vote will be going to a smaller party that I feel are in touch with things that are important to me So a wasted vote is better than JC getting it? Okay.... " The problem is they make election promises. We vote for them. They break their promises. We vote for them again next election. If breaking their promises put voters off for life then they would never do it. But my question is how can the ruling party make promises? If there are amazing things they can do to make the UK better why haven't they done them already. For me its simple. Forget the promises. If you are happy with the way things are then vote for who you have now. If not vote for someone else. | |||
