tragically history turns on more than the actions of one individual, regardless of who they are - even Jeremy Corbyn come to terms with your own powerlessness

I can't believe members of the Conservative Party would tell lies.

True freedom includes the freedom to be abused and exploited. Heh. Guess you lefties just aren't ready to accept the real price of liberty. *works a backbreaking 60 hours a week, dies in poverty*

Hentai Jihadist posted:labour's plan seems to be to just let the tories drive us off a cliff and then wrest the wheel off them while we're in free fall so they have enough time to be blamed before we hit the rocks I think the argument is that we basically already drove off the cliff when cameron committed to a referendum with no safeguards and/or the condem coalition destroyed our economy with austerity and/or forty years of hell neoliberalism. the actual process of brexit is the free fall

I thought the theory was cameron was expecting another minority result and another coalition and included the referendum in the manifesto to see off UKIP and quell tory leavers while intending to cancel it as part of negotiations with the lib dems. when the lib dem vote collapsed cameron was left with a referendum he didn't want to have, and it had to be a straight up yes/no question with no thresholds because that's what he gave the snp in their referendum in 2014. either way, it doesn't hugely matter - this isn't solely an internal tory issue that can be exploited with no externalities. the EU has been a handy hobby horse for the right-wing press for decades, and the referendum has only exploded the issue to include everyone in the electorate. labour perhaps could have taken a sensible stand on it if they were in a stronger position overall - but not only were labour on the decline for years beforehand, but *ahem* certain people were also suddenly quite happy to actively sabotage the party when their chosen faction fell out of favour with the membership and the UK as a whole

jBrereton posted:yeah he played the long game by loving the country completely and then quitting in disgrace, good one mate. yes, and your idea was even worse than that, you stupid gently caress. loving just lie in the manifesto about a referendum that is also a cripplingly divisive issue in the parliamentary tory party and a personal bugbear of the newspapers on which the tories are dependent for their popular support. I'm sure no one would mind the prime minister casually breaking an election pledge for no good reason. should be easy to pass laws after that. nigel farage would just give up and go home. you idiot. you witless fool.

I don't think the Tory attack line of "Gordon Brown spent all the pounds" is particularly reflective of reality either.

I thought he lost his money making lovely computers in the 80s and his wealth is based on manufacturing satellite dishes for Sky, a business arrangement that had nothing to do with his (successful) vote to award broadcast rights for Premier League football to Sky in 1992
