"I actually want it to be Boris now I want the EU to absolutely destroy him, there will he a huge amount of satisfaction in watching this unfold Every cloud, silver lining .... " I'm sure Boris who has only ever gone from strength to strength will give the EU a bloody nose while bringing back favorable terms in excess of our benefits we have now with the European Union along with £39 billion in his back pocket and 93 free trade agreements swinging from his belt. | |||

"The place to compare and contrast the contenders... While I've yet to look at each in detail it seems to me they are all similarish 1) have an idea which solves Brexit. That feels like everything we've seen before 2) will carry out on a no deal exit. 3) token headline pledge elsewhere to differentiate Has anyone come out on and said no deal is the way forward (rather than a plan b they'd carry out on) or have a plan b which isn't no deal? " It is mind boggling some of the stuff that these people are coming out with as they try to appear more misguided and out of touch than their competitors. The world looking on must think we are collectively losing our minds as potential Prime Ministers joust to see who can inflict the most damage on the United Kingdom and its people. Meanwhile, us mere plebs, oiks and riff-raff continue to argue over whether life would be better with two feet, one foot or no feet as some threaten to chop off both their feet because they were not initially allowed to chop off just one. I think now that this will end up with some kind of political revolution in this country because we are seeing first hand that our political classes are not up to the job of making strategic, long term decisions. Short term, populist policies have worked as long as our politics have been shielded from real scrutiny because of our EU membership and because of the FPTP electoral system of winner takes all. I suspect a few things are about to get overhauled - no matter what happens. | |||

"It's clear why Boris has been keeping a low profile, compared to his natural style, as it's realised that he's a danger to everyone, including himself. " An accident waiting to happen. If his team has worked out he is the clear favourite with the grassroots, avoiding interviews means no public gaffes. | |||

"whoever the new pm may be may have to deal with a massive spanner in the works.... labour are going to apparently use their opposition day debate tomorrow to seize the order paper for tuesday 25th june..... the reason, they are going to then try and force thru legistlation effectively making it illegal to leave the EU without a deal in place..... they are going to use the excuse that since Rabb and Mcvey have said they would be prepared to suspend parliament to force thru a no deal..... that this would block that action.... if that happened... then all the brexiteers who reckoned on no deal on october 31st..... will have to come up with a plan " You make it sond like a soap opera although it might be lol | |||

"seen most of the campaign launches... most impressed with rory stewart... but way too sensible to actually be a contender and the sajid javid opening video......" To be fair some of them are talking more since than others surprisingly one of those is Give who at least seems to have taken in board that Leaving with a deal after 31\10 is better then Leaving with no deal before. Unfortunately none of them, including Rory Stuart (probably the best of the bunch) seems willing to tell their party the hard truth that there is no deal other than a deal like May's, any deal will leave us worse of and with less control and say than we currently have and that 'no deal' doesn't really exist. | |||

"Hancocks pitch to Tory MPs , Conservative Party Members and The Country was priceless -- not a word-4-word quote but was on the lines of " vote for me because I haven't been on the front bench of the Tory party for some time , so this catastrophic mess is not reall anything to do with me "" . Sorry , my error , it was Harper not Hancock , just seen Harper interviewed on Channel 4 ,,, oh dear !!! ,,, how on earth is he a MP ? how on earth is he in the top ten Tory MPs ? How on earth could he become PM ,,, this leadership debate is beginning to sound quite frightening ,, | |||

"First big gaffe for Johnson is a gift for the Scots Nats. Johnson says he will cut the tax bill for the wealthiest and fund it partly by raising NI. National Insurance rates are reserved to Westminster but Income Tax thresholds are devolved. So that means Scottish taxpayers will pay more in NI in order to fund tax cuts for the wealthy in England and Wales. And they wonder why they don't want him doing interviews? Lolololol" I'm sure plenty of people behind Boris came up with this. So less a gaff, more a tactical ploy | |||

Teresa May also blamed Labour for not getting her Brexit Deal through The Commons , which was quite strange , because with the money she had sent to The DUP it actually meant The Conservatives have a majority , so if every Labour MP and every LibDem MP and every SNP MP had voted against her deal it would have passed because she had enough Conservative votes , so the MPs who have actually stopped Brexit are the Conservative MPs that keep banging on about Brexit ,,, Brexit had been stopped by Brexit supporting Conservative MPs | |||

Most of the people from slightly right of centre to just short of hard left don't like Corbyn stance on BREXIT because it's not Remain enough. Labour will loose some to most of those voters to the LibDems, Greens and SNP. The Conservatives will loose a lot of their BREXIT voters to The BREXIT Party and a lot of their Remain voters to the LibDems. The actual result is hard to call but both Labour and the Conservatives could be down to about 100 seats each or possibly even less for the Conservatives, with the LibDems being the biggest gainers and the BREXIT party some way behind. In short we would have a hung parliament but more Remain MPs than Leavers. The real problem the Conservatives have is that if they go for a General Election before they've delivered some sort of BREXIT they could be decimated by an exodus of both Leave and Remain. On the other hand if they do deliver BREXIT they probably won't be decimated but will definitely loose the right of centre liberal vote which is very pro EU, and the Conservatives can't win a General election without them. When whoever is the PM and it comes down to choice between a General Election, Referendum or Revoke 50 they will, if they have any sense at all, choose the Referendum option and that will be the end of BREXIT once and for all. | |||

"Boris will be fine, BREXIT will be delivered, and the whole world, including the EU will be competing to do business with us. That is my prediction, not my wish list. I’d prefer some Treason May mark 2 to get the job, attempt to further fudge BREXIT, and another general election where the BREXIT Party sweep into power and sort this mess out toot sweet. How does that song go? You can’t always get what you want, but you can try some time..." How's that other one go by SuperTramp. Something like:- "Dreamer, you know you are a dreamer, Well can you put your hands on your head, oh no!

"Johnson on Brexit: "We have to threaten them with no deal in order to get a good deal" Tick, been there, done that, did not work "Labour needs to realise this is an existential threat to both parties if we do not deliver on Brexit" Tick, been there, done that, did not work. No new ideas, no strategy, no suggestion of doing any different. Still, I guess there are some who will happily forget the last three years ever happened and that cake is back on the table." You forgot the cherries. There has to cherries on the cake both before and after we've eaten it but still got it. Without cherries how can we possibly cherry pick? | |||
