If May has the balls to just tell the British people, Look, it's a complete mess, we're calling it off, I'll vote for her.
Got to agree with this. It's a total clusterfk, nobody has the slightest idea what to do, how to do it or what the consequences may be, looked at impartially the only sensible approach is to call it off and try to work out what the hell is going on.andy_s said:

I clicked Brexit Party but it would be a toss up between UKIP and Brexit party depending on which one is the more genuine Brexit party. I think UKIP have gone a bit too Tommy Robinson to qualify as a decent party but if the current government won't enact what they were voted to do then we'll vote in one that does. In any case I suspect May knows the deal, so to as speak, and will get us out of the EU with a minor delay.
Really?For a General election - not a trivial little protest election like the Parish Council or the European parliament but one which hands over the power to the party that wins to do everything, set tax policy, defence, run the NHS, transport, policing, absolutely everything important - you'd really, honestly be willing to vote for a party with no candidates, no leader (she just resigned because she got caught being "a bit too Tommy Robinson") no policies, and no track record, purely for their attitude over Brexit?
I'd like to think my track record on here is one of reasoned debate rather than attacking individuals, but that's just absolutely, completely and utterly batst fking mental, and I'm absolutely lost for words!!!
"None of the above", MPs on all sides have demonstrated in the last couple of weeks that they think they know better than and will ignore their constituents, so there seems little point in voting any more. Most of the people I speak to day to day are now seriously delusioned with it all.
Decades of damage has been done to democracy in the UK in the last month or two by the current set of MP's behaviour. A complete restart is needed.

I couldn't vote for anything Nigel Farage is involved in after he was photographed with Fraser Anning.
I would never vote tory or Labour as they don't represent the electorate IMO and are more focused on Party survival than the people they serve. I would head towards one of the parties with a good social and green manifesto but most importantly, a focus on jobs. Is there a party that can offer that?
Based on your previous posts, I would suggest you wouldn't vote for Farage regardless of who he's photographed with (not a dig, just an observation).I would never vote tory or Labour as they don't represent the electorate IMO and are more focused on Party survival than the people they serve.

Unfortunately, due to the nature of the media (both social and MSM) anyone who stands for the Brexit Party, particularly in a higher position will be subject to having every SJW in the country trying to dig up dirt on them.If it weren't for this fact, I'd put myself forward, but there are things in my past (from a long time ago) that I'd rather like to keep in the past.
They will be under far more microscopes than any other current MP or candidate, probably even more so than a UKIP candidate (UKIP was properly sunk when they brought in the likes of Tommy Robinson).

I don't think the current Labour cabinet are even fit to run my local council but they were on the ballot the last time.Yes - wait and see what happens if the Referendum and pledges that both parties (Tories and Labour) in the last GE are not honoured. I think we entered 'batst mental' terriotry when we started being subservient to an unlected rabble headed by a drunk Belgian and his ex-commie sidekicks .. FFS we're not a banana republic!

Actually, "None of the below" at the top of the ballot paper would more suited. Virtually guarantee it would gain more votes than the rest in many instances.

The plain fact is the referendum has broken British democracy. Granted, many of the fault lines pre-existed, but the vote blew them apart.
There is no single outcome that is going to please even as much as 20% of the population.
Hard to argue with this, although there are options that would at least acknowledge the wishes of 52% of the population.There is no single outcome that is going to please even as much as 20% of the population.

A European election I could understand, but a GE? It makes absolutely no sense whatsoever, and I honestly don't believe even a fraction of those people would actually vote for "The Brexit Party" on the day...
Honestly no idea anymore.
I voted remain, accepted the result and considered the Conservatives would be more competent than Labour at managing the withdrawal process. Therefore they got my vote last time. However, they have fked up big time and are unfit for office, as are Labour.
My local MP Peter Kyle is Labour and seems to do a decent job representing his constituency and is a thorn in Jeremy Corbyn’s side. But I cannot bring myself to vote for him as vote for Labour would only encourage Corbyn.
I just want someone sensible in charge!
