Cameron put that decision off as long as he could. He knew it was stupid.

Strange really, considering who Corbyn has been quite happy to share platforms with over the years.
so your contention is that if Corbyn had share platforms with these people it would have convinced more people to vote Remain than did?
Can I just ask if you have any sliver of evidence....un petit peu?
I would contend the absolute opposite to be honest....no more evidence that that but I would be happy to back mine over yours.....looking at how popular Corbyn is with Blair supporters and vice versa
It might have worked, but how does Cameron answer the "You're here now, with a terrorist sympathizer, he's OK now, is he?"
Re: Tuesday 9th January 2018
On a side note, has anyone noticed Cushelle and Velvet toilet roll disappear from their local supermarket shelves or is it just here?
Feels like a conspiracy as both Tesco and Sainsburys have suddenly stopped stocking them.
Appreciate not strictly political but then again it might be - early Brexit consequences, loo roll shortages
Just curious as to whether it's a local phenomenon or more widespread.

so why did the poster make such claims then if there is no evidence......the poster never demonstrates any doubt in their comments so I was just curious to see if there was anything to back it up
I agree with these things there is no real evidence either way....we will form our own opinions....opinions, not facts!

I felt a bit silly asking but should never have doubted the range of Flythenest's collective knowledge. That certainly clears that up. Though also exposes the lack of genuine competition these days if the withdrawal of one company can halve loo roll choice.

It might have worked, but how does Cameron answer the "You're here now, with a terrorist sympathizer, he's OK now, is he?"
Miliband by joining fores with Cameron and Clegg expended some of Labour's political capital in defence of the Union. This, without doubt, damaged Labour in the 2015 election north of the border as the SNP could present themselves as the insurgents, opposed to the rest.
Similarly, if Corbyn had appeared on the same platform as Brown, Blair and Cameron in defence of the UK's remaining in the EU he would have spent some of his own political capital in defence of the greater cause. Some of his own "outsider" image would have been tarnished buying support for Remain.
Miliband put the greater good above party. Corbyn did the opposite.
You see the same on this board, with some of those who see politics as a sport who *hated* putting a cause, even such an important one as the Union, above the party.
I think Miliband was right, and Corbyn was wrong. But then I voted for Miliband, and didn't for Corbyn, because Miliband led a Labour party I could support. Classic Centrist Dad.

Re: Tuesday 9th January 2018
I guess your confusion Hugo, is because Labour has found itself in the centre ground on Brexit.
I would hazard a guess that most Brits never really knew, and still don't, whether we should leave or remain. It's not a binary thing. And having a political party representing that messy middle is both principled and pragmatic.

Wages rising for about a year before- see we undid Labour's mess blah. May called an election with wages falling, and paid the price. Very rare to call an election with falling wages, apparently.
Skillful use of the Lib Dem "shield". Didn't like the Coalition? You wait till we get free of them.
The SNP.
Shameless bribing of pensioners at huge cost. That alone was where the majority came from.
The referendum promise got lots of UKIP defectors back.

Re: Tuesday 9th January 2018
Labour won the Indie referendum for the union - and for the government - and then cameron immediately shat all over the labour party, much as he spent five years shitting on the lib dems - measuring up their constituencies for curtains for the new tory mps whilst relying on the sitting lib dem votes to stay in. He would have done exactly the same if labour had helped him win his stupid pointless and idiotically simplistic EU referendum.
Labour's leadership campaigned for remain votes in labour heartlands every night. Labour voters appear to have turned out to vote remain in the roughly the same proportions as lib dem, snp and green voters. This whole shitbag is cameron's and the conservative's catastrophe. And the country's, obviously, but not Labour's.
