  • I think he's confident that Corbyn has destroyed his own base with his Lexit position sufficiently that if Johnson out-Brexits the Brexit party he can see off the threat of the SNP/Lib-Dems, with the Labour vote collapsing in the background.

    He may well be right. I don't see how I can bring myself to vote labour right now. I am definitely not alone in that view, as evidenced by the EU elections.

  • The EU elections, really, were a single-issue election (despite that, Labour still got a respectable number of votes considering they hadn't really taken a position.)

    In a general election, there's too much at stake to not vote Labour in a seat where it matters.

    What if Brexit is seen as more important than who is in power for the next four years?

    Once we're out of the EU then it's a right-wing dream for the next fifty years, they'll cope with being out of power for 3-4, most especially if that means that they can then nail the recession, outflow of companies etc as Labours fault.
