Time to move on from that one!!! The swathe of blue across middle and working class England won the day, a victory that has seen Cameron resign and should see the end of Corbyn as well!! He completely failed to get Labours message across and the heartland of Labour support was overwhelmingly in the leave camp. This is as muc a slap in the face of Labor as it is the Conservative, in fact this is a slap in the face of every government that has consistently ignored the middle and working classes for a long time now.
It was a free vote St Charles it wasn't like a party political election. I don't think it matters who would be Labour leader in this situation because I still think the result would be the same. The problem is for far too long Westminster and the European Union thought they were untouchable and pushed the public into voting this way because they have had enough and they saw the effects the EU had on there cities, towns and villages with there rules and regulations and what was happening and only now there closing the stable door after the horse has bolted sitting up and taking note. Remain didn't want to talk about immigration as they didn't want to look like racists where as the Leave campaign talked about the issue and probably pushed it too far as well as scaremongering about Turkey joining the EU and painting a picture of Britain outside the EU would be the land of milk and honey and everything would be hunky dory.
Also I know a few people voted Leave because they were giving two fingers up to the establishment and a few thought if they vote Leave it would get rid of Cameron which it has but it also took us out of the European Union. A few people voted for Leave because there friends and family did. I also think Obama and the EU telling us not to leave had an affect as well because when you tell somebody not to do something they do it all the more.
Getting new leaders every 5 minutes like football managers isn't the way to go. I guess Farron should resign as Lib Dems leader because he backed remain as well. The leaders and parties weren't listening to the British public and I'm afraid now they will have to listen to the British public because for too long consecutive Governments have assumed what was best for us instead of getting there ear to the ground and asking us.
