    The Tories have a political and moral obligation, as a party of government, to follow their manifesto. Tory MPs also have an obligation to act in the interests of their constituents and of the country. What if these two obligations are contradictory?

    Labour do not have any obligation to follow their manifesto, as they are not in government.

      I don't think I have ever said that. I have my reasons for wanting to leave the EU and I never saw any of them pasted on the side of a bus or anywhere else. I made my mind up about leaving long before the referendum was even twinkle in David Cameron's eye.

        But labour do have an obligation to follow the line agreed at conference by their membership - which is giving the Labour leadership a bit of grief at the moment.

          That's a matter of internal party mechanism. Certainly interesting.

            Yes but which internal party mechanism?

            The anti semitic one
            The anti Brexit one
            Or the Momentum one

              To bring this full circle, will you be voting for the IRA sympathiser Claire Fox, representing the Brexit Party in the North West?

                No and why should I. I will not be casting my vote in the North West.

                  Just to be clear. The individual, or political party, I choose to vote for at the up coming EU elections is between me and the ballot box and absolutely no business of yours.

                    You’re right, it’s not my business.

                    It would be hypocritical in the extreme, though, for you to vote for a party knowing that you are voting for a known IRA sympathiser to represent you.

                      One might throw similar accusations at anyone voting for a Labour candidate given their anti semitic problems within the party.
