and before anyone says "oh well his successor will campaign on being pro-eu" lmao

brexit has 55% support, a blairite would have done the same thing corbyn is doing and support it, and blairites are cucks who will do what the media wants (which is brexit)

and even then, they tried being racist in 2015 and it didn't work

since the fixed term parliament act of 2011, a two-thirds majority or a vote of no confidence is required to call an early election. my understanding however is that only a simple majority is needed to repeal the act, meaning May could just repeal the act and dissolve parliament just like the old days

It's all irrelevant anyway since both Labour and the Lib Dems have said they will vote for elections anyway. TBF everyone said that FTPA was poo poo at the time anyway for exactly this reason.

Melenchon only wants the top bracket at 90% not 100. Not sure why there's been that discrepancy from French to English media.

Also Jez is Labour's best chance of winning in the UK which just shows what an awful place it is.
