    Maybe they're just sad at seeing their homeland that they possibly wanted to return to at sometime, go to the dogs...

    When Hard Brexit is dead and you end up with "Soft Brexit", what is the difference between that and membership, except for the fact that you've thrown away your influence. That is a debate that is probably going to be had.

    Good ol' Hezza. He'll come to terms with it eventually. Or not. One or the other. In the mean time, I do enjoy the shifting sands of terminology surrounding "soft".

    Whatever you think about Corbyn, the Tories are simply unfit to govern.

    What's the alternative?

    No thanks.

    A lot will realise this if he gets into power. Free everything for everyone and if he can't collect enough tax he can always requisition stuff. Just remember kids all property is theft.

    The gruadian

    The non-ruling Tory party is riven so deeply within itself on Brexit that it is ungovernable as well as unfit to govern. The meat of this parliament is contained in eight Brexit bills, covering everything from customs, trade, immigration and agriculture to fisheries and nuclear safety. The “great repeal bill” has lost its “great”. The genuinely great question is whether any contentious Brexit legislation can ever pass through this parliament and these Conservative MPs. This is the impasse parliament.
    Whatever you think about Corbyn, the Tories are simply unfit to govern.
