    Sometimes there isn't a strategy. If they go for the Remain vote, they're waving goodbye to much of England, even with a credible leader. Scotland is unrecoverable. The boundary changes will cement this structural problem. The Tories will basically need to shoot themselves, so that apathy delivers a hung parliament; the pinnacle, now, of Labour's ambition.

      Which is why I don't bet on elections. Spectacularly. Wrong. Always.
      I really should be the next head of YouGov. I'm already highly over-qualified.

        Whinging moaning lying git: Nigel Farage says he is 'frightened' to leave his home because of liberal media | The Independent
        Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

          He's got a talk show on a radio station where there are some left wingers like James O'Brien, some central rightists like Iain Dale but there is also Katie Hopkins. In other words he is part of the liberal media.

              Apparently Paul Nuttal has pissed of Arron Banks so he may pull UKIPs funding.

                The Daily Express has been a joke for years thanks to their Diana stories.

                  It's the equivalent of the Independent so everything is spun to the extreme.

                    yeah its not like the left ever commit violence is it? Heathrow, London Riots (pretty much all of them)

                    He had an opinion, he offered it to the electorate and lots of people supported it. You may not like the opinions but they are neither illegal or as far as I know racially motivated.

                    I'm failing to see any politician that stated outright immigration would be so high or provided a financial case for it. They decided to do this without asking the Electorate or working out how to pay for it.

                    Now which is deserving of contempt, the one who instigated a social change without asking people or the one who asked people and got them to vote for a social change?

                      Yes, and if you disagree with him you can phone him and put your point of view (if you feel brave enough). I disagree with you that he is part of the liberal media, they gave him a nightly slot and he sets the agenda. That's quite different from the agenda being pre-determined by an editorial figure. (The radio station is LBC btw, if anyone is curious).
