I’d agree. The Brexit policy was awful and should never have gone ahead. I just don’t think at that point Corbyn had the political capital to pull it off as it requires trust from both sides. He had that in 2017, but his personal rating took a nosedive between 17 and 19
(I'm scared of turning this into the other thread, that shall remain nameless).
The Brexit policy was awful because it alienated leavers, remainers, and everybody in between as it tried to please everybody.
Had Lib Dems not panicked and lurched into a revoke at all costs, they'd have probably made more inroads, as their initial policy was pitched about right to get concerned floaters.
What they should have all done, of course, is resolved it before an election - be that a referendum, a soft Brexit, revoking, a hard Brexit. Then the election could have been fought on actual policy.
Anyway, we are where we are. I wonder how many people are feeling like
@skybluesam66 atm... although with a large majority, it doesn't really matter how any of us feel now. The only threat is to Johnson himself if the Tories feel he's expendable, the threat is not to the government.
It would be nice if we had some of the more competent Tories (yes, there are some!) allowed a role in cabinet however, regardless of ideological difference.
