Labour has said it has “no plans for a youth mobility scheme” if it wins the general election later this year.

I wish Labour would have a backbone and stand up to the hard left of their voter base and out right reject this Brexit narrative. Sigh… Not in my lifetime sadly. The two main parties are Brexit parties - one overtly, one covertly.

      Ignore them, they are just gaslighting. It’s an attempt to rewrite history.

      The far left were just as much against the EU with the argument that it removes power from individuals and consolidates it with bigger government, and that due to freedom of movement, you break local labour market power to enforce better pay. Just because you have some alignment, because they smash some big corporations, doesn’t mean that their values will always be aligned and and that point you have lost control.

      I called them morons back then too.

      Yes, those would be the elderly socially conservative voters i was talking about.
