That’s not the point - the quote came from the BBC electoral pundit who you frequently quote on here
Apparently it is when it comes to the Tories and Labour manifestos from the last election. Some posters are trying to have their cake and eat it on this point.
The SNP stood the last election as a clear remain party, stood the council elections as a clear remain party and stood the Euro elections as a clear remain party and has seen its vote share grow since the last election.
I’ll try again - how many members are there in the Labour Party
The conservative Party has a manifesto totally committed to leave

Because Brexit will be the first step in managing to control migration, in time that SHOULD{ but that's debateable} lead to a control of all migration. Migration is important and necessary but has to be controlled and targeted to ensure that the UK isn't just being sought after as a quick route to our welfare state, NHS, schooling and established infrastructure.How will Brexit help constant consumerism if the theory is we will do trade deals with different countries instead?

It’s irrelevant using your own logic on a different post. You’re trying to have your cake and eat it to clutch at straws. I at least have the dignity to acknowledge that both parties are split and discount them from my conclusions. Even when the split favours remain.
Now you know more than professor John Curtice amazing
Someone I seem to remember you dismissed at the general elections. Again having your cake and eating it. John Curtice actually said last night that if you discount SNP and Plaid then England and Wales are split 50/50. If you then factor in Scotland and Northern Ireland it’s only an indicator that the mood has changed since the referendum.
Leavers are the only people being listened to? Are we on the same Island???Of course some will but the reality is we’ve been trying to leave for 2.5 years. All we ever hear is “will of the people” etc. Farage has pushed this narrative of betrayal and people not being listened to but it’s madness. Leavers are the only people being listened to and it’s used as ammunition for harder Brexit.

I don't blame people at all for wanting to come here, I don't have issue with their motives or the people themselves but there is only so much on this life raft before it sinks taking everyone down.
Anti EU parties won last night in Britain, France and Italy
3 of Europe's power 5 countries, let that sink in

As I see it, the results show:
- UKIP vote all went to Brexit
- Leavers for Tory went Brexit
- Remainers for Labour went Lib Dem or Green
- I wouldn't read too much into this for a GE. It was a free hit protest vote because these MEP's are probably only going to be there a few months.
- Farage stated after the last Euro elections UKIP would be a huge force to be reckoned with in a GE and when we had one shortly after they made very little headway in FPTP and they actually had a manifesto on issues beyond Brexit. Brexit is "leave the EU with no deal". That is it.
-If the younger voters came out in larger numbers I think the greens would do quite well for them, and Lib Dems would get a small improvement but still nowhere near where they were pre-coalition.
-Labour and Conservative would lose votes, but would be protected by FPTP.
-There would be quite a high likelihood of a hung parliament, but if one party were to win outright I'd expect it to be Tory, especially under a new leader, and esp. Boris.
Nope he didn’t and the results mirror the map of the way the country voted last time
It’s one man one vote in a referendum. How the votes are spread is irrelevant. More straw clutching.
No one has ever shown me an unbiased report on the true economic effects of mass migration. Most I've read suggest that the tax receipt benefit is outweighed by the strain on services and infrastructure, NHS, Schools, roads, environment, crime and security. Again I don't blame individuals but our successive governments have allowed systematic abuse.Firstly, we can manage migration now.
Secondly, as I pointed out migration has a positive affect on NHS and welfare. The idea that those systems are under strain due to migration is a complete falsehood that has been pushed by politicians because it’s believable at first glance.
Thirdly, if we want trade deals with countries outside of the EU immigration may well be one of their demands. The irony is Brexit may just lead to immigration of more people from outside Europe and a bit less from inside.

Good points but I think Brexit Ltd will do better than UKIP in GE. Question is by how much and how their influence changes the conservatives.

Obviously we aren't then. Or you have very selective hearing.Their voice dominates the conversation while remainers (around half the country) are labelled traitors. Brexit has dominated the nation for years. To say leavers are dismissed is absurd.

Without immigration the NHS will struggle a lot more as they lower the average age and on average pay more into it. This is the dirty secret politicians don’t want to discuss, as a nation we are on average too old and immigration keeps us going.
The money sent to the EU is far lower than what we’ll lose in trade if we leave, again to supposed solution will exacerbate the problem.

Remainers tend to forget that they've had the media, social media and most of Parliament on their side trying to brainwash the nation for 3 years with their totally pro remain bias, Its a good trait to have being willfully ignorant of what's actually happening
Anyhow. Parties with a clear remain stance far outweigh in share of the votes parties with a clear leave stance. Maybe the country has changed its mind afterall.
Tony, the national front in France are anti EU Pro European, what on earth are you jibbering
Honestly I've been told for 3 years us leavers are the thick uninformed ones
Social media is dominated by leave except twitter.
The media has not helped the remain cause at all. Farage is fawned over and Brexiters are allowed to shout nonsense without being challenged. Question Time audience is full of UKIP candidates who are given a chance to speak and then shared by their social media teams.

lol what maths school did you go to?
immigration puts a massive burden on the nhs, housing and education.
the more people in the country the more pressure it puts on the services. if you live in cov and walk through it’s city centre it’s full of foreign women with 2 - 3 kids in tow. I’m all for immigration if it helps the economy but most immigrants don’t. also if you worked on the building sites. the poles will work for a cheaper wage compared to the home born workers which in turn makes its cheaper for the big companies to use cheaper labour. that’s why companies want to say in the EU. the cost of living is rising but not wages. most working on minimum wage is foreign workers. what does that say.
Lol, marine le pen changing a lifetime opinion in 12 weeks... My word who would have thoughtMarine Le Pen did an interview with C4 news on Friday where she said exactly what I just said. Whether that leaves you thick and uninformed I’ll leave you to decide but the weight of evidence straight from the horses mouth is not weighted in your favour.

Do you have any evidence on the Question Time audience comment?
She is anti EU, I don't even know how Tony can deny this.Nothing to do with an election where shed pretty much stated it was her vs Macron I assume?
What she said was she’d propose a series of reforms France needs to the EU - she didn’t say what her stance would be if she didn’t get her way - which she won’t
