  • He could have pointed out a hard brexit was disastrous and use that as a rational to not use a triple whip on article 50. He just bowled over, which may have been the right thing to do in hindsight.

    I am also not impressed by the immigration ballix of Labour during the campaign (visa for EU nationals?) and their stance they can get the single market but limit EU freedom of movement, but they will soon find that out.

    It wasn't off his own making obv. And the LidDems still got punished for being in government with the Tories...

  • But then he'd have lost a load of votes from people who view immigration and control of borders as an important issue.

  • Exactly, but he went with this anti EU immigrants narrative against all the facts.

    I totally understand the electioneering, but I don't think it's a principled centre-left position to take.

    They may compromise on this to stay in the Single Market.
