Farage said that now that's he's stepped down he won't be constrained when answering questions and "the real me will come out". Jesus Christ, what exactly is he gonna do?

So I'm seeing a lot of dark, vague muttering about Leadsom. Apart from retweeting that one racist tweet, what makes her significantly worse than the Tory average?

I hope you weren't a member of the Labour party when you supported a candidate standing against a Labour party candidate

Though honestly it's kind of a silly rule for a party supposedly in support of organized labor to have an issue with people withdrawing support based on lack of fulfillment of responsibilities by those dependent on that support.

You know, this situation reminds me of something that happened in another Labour party, way back in 1904...

I can see why Corbyn's aides dosen't want Tom Watson to talk to him as he's actually in Glasgow right now.

Panorama on BBC1 right now with people repeating the usual rhetoric of Eastern Europeans coming over, taking everyone's jobs and pushing down wages. These people's views will NEVER be changed until they're all kicked out.

Maybe they should focus on making their alliance based on changing the voting system by ganging up on the Tories in elections. But then i realised that UKIP would get more the votes so LOLNOPE.

If Brexit is any indication, UKIP having power would make people more opposed to them. Better we get lovely parties through engagement than through apathy.

I've long since thought that the best way to get progressive change to the voting system would be for Labour, Lib Dem, Green, Plaid and UKIP to make a rainbow coalition standing on the basis of 'if we win we will reform the electoral system and rerun the election' but that kind of co-operation would be basically unheard of. Helping UKIP is a small price to pay for making the permanently fractured left able to actually be represented. Especially given that at least some of those UKIP votes will be protest votes. Stupid protest votes, but still.

SInce I'm the only one watching Panorama, here's the highlights: Leave voters: "I have nothing against Poles/immigration, but" Remain voters: "Wahhh our futures, all the Leave voters are massive idiots"

I think that's how the US ended up in it's two-party hellhole, though, the (formerly) lockstep morons vs Everyone Else, and it's really hard to get Everyone Else to agree on anything.
