The Labour party has won over 400 seats (out of 650) in the 2024 UK General Elections, and Keir Starmer is expected to replace Rishi Sunak as Prime Minister. The Conservatives, in power for the last fourteen years, have suffered a rout, losing over two-thirds of their seats. The SNP has collapsed in Scotland, mostly to Labour, and the Liberal Democrats have gained over sixty seats.

Not going to happen. They even said it’s not going to happen.

I heard that they probably won’t, because they are afraid that they would lose support from the large amount of Brexit supporters that now voted labour.

lol and his soft stance on Brexit was part of why pundits said Corbyn lost. Talking out both sides of their mouths. Party full of fuckin’ snakes.

How do you convince the EU to let us back in?

We’ll need a couple of Labour terms before they’ll answer the phone.

EU demands are the easy part. It’s rather obvious what they would be. Something along the lines of: ‘The UK can rejoin at any time, but without all the special treatment it has been receiving.’

Try to convince the people that’s good. Will another referendum still be in favour of rejoining, if you have to accept the Euro, new immigration laws, maybe the metric system and other standards?

I have some doubts there.

Yeah, Starmer is milquetoast on Brexit. Well, on everything, really
