Why would the people of the UK benefit from a Labour Government?

@SW-User I'm not gonna engage in insults. I'm just gonna ask you what you want and expect as an outcome from Brexit. My previous post explains what I think will happen and why.

@Burnley123 you , me or anyone else has no idea what will happen as we've never been in this position before. But you buy into project fear. And that scruffy old bastard now says he will re-negitiate a withdrawal agreement then ask the country to vote against it. The man is a coward , out of his depth and a disgrace. He doesn't realise that outside of his Islington North bubble that many Labour leave constituencies are ready to abandon him and his party

@SW-User Johnson was not to blame for us not leaving , it was the same people who for 3 years have done everything to keep us in EU , the public are not stupid and they know this, as Johnson as hardly been slated for not taking us out that tells you something

@SW-User both withdrawal agreements were clearly in contradiction to the Labour 2017 manifesto promises, largely around remaining in customs union etc
So he and Labour MPs were purely voting in alignment with the mandate they were given at that election. I don't see that as a betrayal of the electorate. The opposite in fact.

I come from Burnley in East Lancashire so I know a bit about Labour leave constituencies. Probably quite a lot more than you in fact.

BTW Islington is a place which middle-class Tories like to see as a place inhabited by latte-drinking liberals. Some people like that exist there sure, but it also has a lot of poverty and many working-class people.

Ignore all economists though, because nobody can predict anything. But you also predict a Corbyn government will be bad for the UK, though not for any reasons that you quite understand.

@Burnley123 think this post was meant for princessk

@Burnley123 and I'm from Lancaster , also a leave constituency with a Labour MP. Check your facts before claiming you know more than others

@SW-User Yet you are a Conservative who claims to speak for Labour leave voters. You don't.

If you wanna get into a debate about facts then please start by providing some. I'm gonna ask you for one piece of evidence or expert opinion which says that Brexit will benefit working-class people.

One economic forecast or article with evidence. That is all I ask.

@Burnley123 I'm not a Conservative. I voted Labour in 2017. I want to see the will of the people carried out. Overturning the referendum would be a betrayal of a democratic decision. And the day that happens we will no longer be a democracy. Never mind economic forecasts respect the people's decision

@SW-User OK. Please, can I ask you to read my previous pinned post on the consequences of a Conservative government Brexit. If you are not a Conservative, then there is not a lot there that you would support.

@Burnley123 I'll make my own judgement on pledges and policies over the next 6 weeks

@SW-User OK, but its there if you wanna read a different perspective.

@Burnley123 I'll read the party manifestos first

But as a remoaner here is the second referendum you've been whinging for

@SW-User I can't speak for others, but I've said all along that you have a mandate for a soft-Brexit.

@ArtieKat Nobody holds back anything on SW. Its all part of the fun.

@ArtieKat the old buzzard needs to buy a razor and a new suit. Scruffy old goat

@Burnley123 I was taking the mickey out of @SW-User. We've been friends from the very start of SW :-)

@ArtieKat So I gathered.

@Burnley123 I'm not falling out with you and respect your views. I've just got no time for your boss

@SW-User I can't agree that this is what the People's Vote want.
A general election is not a referendum on one key issue. It is where people consider the things they believe are important to the country and the direction they want the country to take over the entire range of policy issues. Then they vote for the candidate or party they believe is their best compromise.
However, in the UK today's horribly muddied by our first past the post system as then some weigh up as above and realise they really don't want party A in power therefore they decide to vote tactically to stop that candidate potentially winning in their constituency.
In the last election I voted Labour in a Kent Tory stronghold. If I'm anti tory rather than pro Labour, say I prefer the greens, for me to prevent a tory return Labour is my best bet. Oh for proportional representation like we had in the EU parliament elections when my vote counts more meaningfully.
For those reasons I have a real issue on the brexit question calling this a proxy referendum.
