    They’ve already killed a fair number of them

    keep trying scoff and sooner or later you'll convince yourself..rural leave,urban remain

    as i said on the day of the referendum everyone i spoke to (except maybe half a dozen) voted leave, it was like a carnival they couldn't wait to vote.On here I was told i was wrong when i said leave would win by a landslide in this area and........... we are urban..

    that democracy for you,its a shame this whole brexit thing is eating away at you and you are being taken out against your will.

    i voted leave(i've been anti eu,like mr corbyn, all my working life and not just for the duration of the 'bus') but still voted labour in the GE,because the last thing i wanted was another term of the tories

    Thanks for your concern Dek :)
    Don’t worry, not eating away at me. I accepted that we’d be leaving the EU and my primary concern is how we rebuild the country when it’s done. :)

    I have posted a similar response to the one that started this on a few occasions to people who have suggested that ‘without Corbyn’ Labour could have won the last election. As a rule they never respond when I ask them to explain how that might possibly have happened.

    On this occasion, a couple of Labour supporters have engaged cos they believe I was somehow having a go at them o_O

    In the 2019 election labour were dealt an unwinnable hand, but we really should put that behind us now and rebuild for the future :)

    WTAF??? Read what I’ve written and tell me where I’ve said you aren’t a traditional labour voter? I think you are reading things that aren’t there!!

    Here is the paragraph I wrote below - I’ve highlighted the point I think you are on about:

    Maybe Labour wouldn’t have got in at the last GE on a Brexit policy, but why not try, instead of the leadership being happy to lose the traditional supporter who wanted Brexit in order to appease those who wanted to Remain, even though the chance of that happening was next to zero at best?

    Does it not clearly state ‘happy to lose the traditional supporter who wanted Brexit’? Not ‘happy to lose all traditional supporters’?

    The Tories could have voted with May, that was their job - they were in government:)

    Implicit in your statement - traditional who wanted to leave those that wanted to remain.

    Whether that was a subconscious framing or accidental or whatever you believe it to be. It’s implicit in the language you used :)
