the bandwagon has an 8% lead over May according to Survation (Sunday Mail).
Survation were the only polling firm to call the last 2 elections correctly.
They also report that 62% want a referendum on the exit terms.

May's administration is hanging by a thread. The party is riven with disputes. The DUP are threatening to pull their support at any sign of compromise with the ROI. The tin whistle sash adorned brigade never pass up the chance of self destruction.

Unless somebody makes a screeching u turn soon there will be a GE in 2018 and we will have a new set of deck chair attendants. The ship will still sink. John Redwood is right. Right b'astard and from the land of the swivel eyed right but still right.

The emasculated trade unions are not in a position to protect anybody.

When they come with the battering ram to open your door at 3am nobody will come.

I have not read enough to know what's happening in the social policy spectrum as I've had too many other things to do recently.

However, I have a long memory and wonder what happened to the 'spending more time with the family' labourite Alan MIlburn who seems to be the main stirrer here for Jeremy. Gillian Shepherd in on the act too - I would say sour grapes but I'll have to read more.

I see Nick Clegg has put his oar in too - and we all know how ineffectual he was when he had the chance to change things.

I think it may be a sign of the times because I doubt very much whether Labour or Lib Dem could do any better without upsetting someone - financier or taxpayer or anyone else.

I believe all three of them have had their chance and they made no better fist of it than the current lot are doing so I'll wait to read everything before I jump onto their bandwagon,

I see a huge mess caused by the arrogance of David Cameron who gambled on his imagined understanding of the psyche of a population who had recently voted to call their prestigious polar exploration vessel Boaty McBoatface.

It was interesting to watch the tactics employed by different individuals to avoid being landed with the job of creating some sort of order out of his chaos before Teresa May, for reasons I will never understand, allowed herself to be burdened with it. I can only attempt to imagine what would have happened had she not taken it upon herself.

I do not understand and have not taken enough interest to make any comment upon any other aspect but it is would appear that a Brexit policy was never constructed on the assumption that it would never be needed and that the social policy was still being considered and implemented piecemeal.

It takes some people a long time to grasp the truth but they get there in the end.
Remember and reflect 9 November 1938.
