I am a Labour supporter, but find myself starting to worry about them winning the GE. I think it is pretty probable that the next 5 years will be economically and diplomatically bad for the UK whichever way you cut it, because of Brexit. I don't really understand how either party could make a go of it in the short term, the negotiations and immediate aftermath seem likely to be painful and difficult, barring a miracle. Even if the economic consequences aren't as bad as many predict, how can anyone be seen to get a "good deal" when half the country didn't want Brexit anyway and the other half all want different things out of it?
So given that I believe no party is likely to make a short term success of Brexit, AIBU to almost hope the Tories do win? They can deal with the inevitably difficult and thankless Brexit negotiation period and aftermath and leave Labour in a stronger position to win public support back after the worst of it is perhaps over...can't stand the idea of Labour winning, Brexit going inevitably badly and the Tories crowing that it would never have happened like that under them when it's all bloody David Cameron's fault anyway.
My vote doesn't matter anyway as in the safest of safe seats, and I'm not saying I'd seriously want my party to lose anyway...but I keep coming back to this thought. Wonder what others think.
