150,000 people have registered to vote since Monday, with the majority of them being young (under 45s). This probably happens every September - it's the students registering at term-time addresses. Owain |

That is entirely down to Boris. It was his insistence on a no deal Brexit that lead a number of Conservative MPs, his brother included, to put the national interest before their own careers. He single handedly lost the government's working majority and, having lost control, nobody trusts him enough to give it back. But actually he hasn't insisted on a no deal Brexit. If he had, Farage would not be saying at his conference that he will fight the Conservatives in every seat in the land. What Boris has done is insist on no deal being an option. He at least appreciates the first rule of Negotiation 101 that you have to be prepared to walk away with no deal rather than a bad deal. He knows that he probably wouldn't win another referendum, He doesn't have to.* We've had the one that mattered. Aside from the fact that the evidence is that public opinion now favours remain over leave, that referendum only gave the government a mandate to leave the EU. It did not give it a mandate to leave in the most damaging way possible. It gave the government a mandate to leave the EU in the way the government saw fit. The referendum set the direction and handed the matter back to the government to implement. People have a right to the sort of Brexit that the Leave campaign described, which is not what they would get with a no deal Brexit. The people were not going to be consulted after the referendum. That much was made very clear. 'The government will implement what you decide' said the leaflet that came thudding through our letterboxes. And it was supposed to be a 'once in a generation' opportunity for the people to decide. Besides, there are many who say the original question was too difficult for voters to understand. Heaven alone knows how the public are supposed to understand all the nuances of the different sorts of Brexit there might be. If Boris wants to be able to claim that the people back a no deal Brexit, he can only do so if he gets a clear mandate for that option in another referendum. but thinks he could win a general election Well, that's better surely than Corbyn who is running scared of one. He isn't running scared. he simply isn't going to dance to Boris' tune. Labour has already said it is quite willing to support a general election in mid-November. Never before in history has an opposition party spurned a chance to have an election that could see them elected to power. It's supposed to be what they want. There's no getting away from it. Corbyn was unequivocal about wanting an election and being ready for one just four days ago: "When a government finds itself without a majority, the solution is not to undermine dedmocracy. The solution is to let the people decide and call a general election. It is the people, not an unelected Prime Minister, who should determine our country's future. An election is the democratic way forward." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mN1gBxAfZh4 (from 3:02 in) Now that one has been offered, it turns out he didn't really mean it at all. He's running scared and denying the 'democratic way forward' he so nobly espoused so little time ago. |

I believe this is more likely to be student mentality as I see this with students quite often regarding course work. Studetns want the lap open longer hours so we opened at 8am instead of 9am while most turn up after lunch and wonder why we aren't willing to work until 6pm or even midnight, as some computer labs are open until 2am like the local take-aways. |

I suppose it is no different to someone who tries to pretend he isnt a racist having supported special rules to prevent those with Asian names getting a job. Meanwhile, I see Boris has (unsurprisingly) caught you all napping. It is a pity he doesnt read some of the tripe posted by the Remainers on here, hed find it hilarious. |

The masses believe what they are told by the capitalists. And the psedo intellectals believe in what they are told by te radical ,arxists, who always lie. Marxs view of production is completely invalidated by the 20th century rise of automated production. He saw wealth as ultimately produced by human labour. It isn't. Today its produced by a few clever people designing machines that run on fossil fuel that have totally replaced labour. At a stroke Marxism has becime totally and utterly irrelevant along with the so called working class it purported to represent. Which is why socialism has been modified and adapted to appeal to the people who think they are smart - the technicians of the world, and given a moral ringe to appeal to women and feminized men. -- If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.

He called it because he thought they could take enough votes from the Conservatives to lose them a general election. The same applies now with TBP. If Boris is going to be the one to take the UK out of the EU, he needs to win Labour marginal seats in Leave voting areas. At Peterborough, the Brexit party took Leave voters from Labour, but far more from the Conservatives, with the result that Labour won.

That is just Nigel throwing his toys out of the pram, because he isn't getting the media attention he thinks he deserves. Even more flagrantly dishonest than you usually manage and thats saying something. If it were about Brexit, rather than about Nigel wanting to feel important, he would say that The Brexit party would not be putting up any candidates in a general election and urging anybody who would have voted for them to vote Conservative. Even more sillier than you usually manage and thats saying something. David Cameron didn't call the referendum because he thought that UKIP would ever be a serious force in parliament. He called it because he thought they could take enough votes from the Conservatives to lose them a general election. Nope, he had the referendum stupidly assuming that it would produce a result that would shut up the Tory brexiteers. The same applies now with TBP. If Boris is going to be the one to take the UK out of the EU, he needs to win Labour marginal seats in Leave voting areas. BULL**** given the Labour poll results. At Peterborough, the Brexit party took Leave voters from Labour, but far more from the Conservatives, with the result that Labour won. One seat proves nothing, stupid. Had TBP supporters voted Conservative, it would have been a decisive Conservative win. The same is likely to happen in any Labour marginal in any Leave area. Even more sillier than you usually manage and thats saying something. There's no getting away from it. Corbyn was unequivocal about wanting an election and being ready for one just four days ago: Now that one has been offered, it turns out he didn't really mean it at all. He's running scared and denying the 'democratic way forward' he so nobly espoused so little time ago. As I said, Labour is more than willing to have a general election, but when it suits them, in November, not when it suits Boris. We'll see... |

So, if that keeps up through the next few weeks, the demographics at the next (very imminent) general election will be somewhat more considerably left-leaning and remain-leaning than even in GE2017, particularly so when you factor in the natural wastage of older right/leave voters. Looks like Boris goose is cooked. Change is coming. Not all of the new registrants will be 'left leaning' by any means. This is just a myth propounded by Remainers.
