        He can agree with the referendum and say we won’t join whilst he’s leader. But to say lifetime is a long fucking time

            I don’t credit that one bit. Going back is an increasingly popular view, and then there’s the whole Russian interference angle; it was a bad idea with a fumbled execution. Why commit, because it’s gone so well for us?

        He just needs to keep his yap shut for one more day and he can start fixing things. And our absence in the EU is something that needs to be fixed.

          and he can start fixing things

          Lol, he has given absolutely no indication in his political career of any intention to fix anything (that matters to you and me, rather than capitalists and the rest of the establishment he represents, that is).

          You want him to be quiet, but he keeps telling you over and over and over and over again who he really is, why won’t you listen???

    Try harder Starmer. We’re only voting you in because a lot of the other parties are full of bastards, do something worthwhile!

      I really strongly disagree with this sentiment. I think this man will be a very successful progressive prime minister who really leads the country back towards the left and a compassionate state.

    in my lifetime.

    What a fucking arsehole. I’m 53, so the UK joined with a 74% yes vote. And left again on a fucking close vote. Within my lifetime.

    Based on that history, what the fuck right does anyone have to predict that far in the future. It is just arrogance. And has 0 relation to democracy.
