New Centrist party, Already Polling 8%
by Guest Tue Feb 19, 2019 9:33 pm
First topic message reminder :
The pollsters have been quick off the mark to gauge the level of public support for a ‘New Centrist Party Opposed to Brexit’, even though the new Independents Group has not yet formally formed a party. Survation found that the theoretical new party would already attract the support of 8%, jumping straight into third place ahead of the Lib Dems:
Helpfully, they also conducted a second poll at the same time without the new centrist party, which gives a good indication of where their votes are coming from. The Lib Dems are hit hardest, losing almost half of their vote share (4%) to the new party, while Labour lose 2% and the Conservatives drop 1%. Not a compelling argument in favour of the Tories softening their position on Brexit…
Worryingly for Corbyn, the public is broadly supportive of the MPs’ decision to splinter away from Labour. Survation found 56% thought they were right to split, with only 20% opposed, while a separate YouGov poll found a 46%-13% split on the same question. On the question of which “best represents the people of Britain”, Survation found 40% favoured the new Independent Group while only 23% chose the Labour Party under Jeremy Corbyn. For the few, not the many…

The answer is no, it doesn't mean we rejoin the EU at all!!!

of course it isn't, But what you are wishing for is a left wing government always being in power through coalitions. But a government that can govern is far preferable to one that has to horse trade their principles away. I would prefer a labour gov, to a lab/lib/snp gov just as I would prefer a tory gov to any other sort of coalition.
Not strictly LW. The Liberal Tory coalition was not LW but was certainly the best option at the time. Better imo than the Tory majority that followed it and the Labour govt (under Brown) that preceeded it. A similar coalition could happen again.
And still did a better job than Labour from 2005-2010 (when they had a majority), and the Tories from 2015 till now (2 years of which they had a majority)

since 2010 the uk has seen record employments rates, a constantly falling deficit, youth unemployment falling and this month the biggest surplus for many years, I think on the economy the tories haven't done too badly considering the position they started in. Brexit well it's been pretty dismal in getting any progress.Eilzel wrote:The Devil, You Know wrote:

they have also said they will prop up the tories should another no confidence vote be called. Of course they will as the first sniff of an election and it is p45's all round, although with a rather more generous payoff than most of us can expect.
if they last the full three years they can expect pay of at least £230grand plus expenses, which in soubreys case last year was another £190grand.

I wonder, could it be because they are worried, that their constituents would not elect them again, and that they would lose all that lovely money, and a chance to fiddle more of it ? Surely not possible with those "HONERABLE" Members ?
