Don't knock the Weatherspoons breakfast, you metropolitan eletist! When you say "the Wetherspoons breakfast", you do mean four pints of Stella, right? (My nearest 'spoons is in the nearest metropolis, btw... Well, Hereford. Him's what passes for a metropolis roun' by 'ere, him is.) The wetherspoons breakfast has no mention of "stella" just bacon an eggs... im guessing swan would suit better..

Jeremy Corbyn is a total disgrace in my opinion for this reason: faced with the most important choice the country has had in 75years, he has never made a speech or given an interview in which he explains why he wants Britain to leave the EU. That is unstatesmanlike and reveals him as a mediocre politician, encrusted with decades of resentment and twisted logic that he is probably unable intelligibly to explain.

Umm, you say he doesn't, then agree that he does (but hasn't said it) FWIW, the usual Seven-Nation-Army riff was being sung by the crowds on the People's Vote march, but with a slight variation. "Where's Jeremy Corbyn?"

"Where's Jeremy Corbyn?"Here is his one and only speech from the 2016 referendum campaign in full:- labourlist.org/2016/04/europe-needs-to-change-but-i-am-voting-to-stay-corbyns-full-speech-on-the-eu/To me this just makes his failure to make his current standpoint clear even more dishonest. Refusal to explain honestly what he now believes. Simply obstructing without offering workable solutions. Everything Labour does has more to do with party unity than with the national interest. Neither Labour nor the conservatives deserve to any respect for their petty game playing. Unfortunately for Britain cometh the hour, cometh the wrong man and the wrong woman. Not statesmen, just second rate.

(it made me laugh when I read you'd listed the Tories amongst the Leave parties). It's impossible to credibly suggest they're anything but. Only 37% of voters think Tories are pro-Brexit, 43% percent think they're anti-Brexit or neither pro/anti, poll here

"A separate poll - also from YouGov - shows that more than half of those who voted Conservative in the 2017 general election intend to vote for Mr Farage's new party in the European elections with just 13 per cent of Leave voters backing Mrs May's party", Telegraph article here

True enough and the closer May moves the Tories towards/into a Customs Union, especially with Labour support, the more Tory Leave voters will move to Brexit/UKIP.
