sorry to be rubbish but... political parties and the election an idiot's guide

[MissEyre]

have I got this right? (am in England)

1. officially anti-Brexit: libdems and greens
2. "neutral"/confused - Labour
3. officially pro Brexit and the deal - Tories.
4. Brexit party - Nigel Farage - what it says on the tin/what UKIP used to be
5. UKIP - now teetering v close to overt racism/extremism.
6. various white supremacist parties. against everyone, including the EU.

is that broadly it? sorry to be daft, I've stopped watching the news.

Reasonably accurate. If you're a remainer, this website has crunched the numbers on how to vote tactically to get as many remain MEPs in your region as possible
www.remainvoter.com/

Labour aren't confused, they've had the same policy since conference last year. They want a deal that guarantees free trade, consumer, economic and workers protection, and if that's not possible (it's not whilst the Tories are in power, but the EU did indicate that they could be amenable to it), then they want a second vote. They've put forward motions for a second vote twice now, both motions being voted down.

Sick of the media's (intentionally) misleading reporting on this.

Tommy Robinson is not a white supremacist, so you’ve got that wrong.

There's also Change UK which are in the same category as LD and Greens, but seem to be struggling to break through.

NoBaggyPants - we do get confused messages from senior members of the Labour party, with some saying we should have a second Ref and some being much more cagey about the circumstances it would happen. But even if Labour were crystal clear, it is the case that ever since the 2017 Gen Election, politicians have repeated the line "80% of votes were for a party that promised to deliver Brexit". A vote for Labour will be interpreted as supporting some form of Brexit.

Remainers won't want to risk misinterpretation by voting Labour this time. It's got to be LD or Green for them.

Thank you

If Robinson isn't a white supremacist, what is he?
