To ask if you would vote for The Remain Party

if there was a political party with that name?

Nigel Farage has formed the Brexit Party for the EU elections. Do you wish there was a Party campaigning passionately for the UK to remain in the EU.

Obviously this doesn't apply to voters in Scotland who have the SNP.

Yes I would absolutely. All those saying no as we'll end up with the Tories are presumably referring to general elections not the forthcoming EU ones, but anyway I think it's a misguided position because if berexit goes ahead, especially a hard one, it won't matter who is in power - life will be shit for all but the richest. Corbyn won't be able to do anything he has promised. We have to send a message in the EU elections that we want to remain if we want to protect the vulnerable.

It infuriates me that the pro remain parties won't unite to avoid splitting the vote. Polls show by refusing to do that farage will clean up Angry.

@Easterbunnymum - Well, they did shelve the “no deal” option (not that I agree with it). So obviously not in a hurry to leave.

They haven't shelved No Deal. They voted against it but unless they actually vote FOR something, No Deal is the default.

I would like to think that they voted against No Deal because no deal would contravene the GFA and they believe that signing an international treaty means something. However, I don't think any of them really care about it or even understand it. The complete lack of integrity in Westminster is astounding.

If Tories were really pro-brexit we would have it by now.

Have what? We could leave the EU tomorrow if we could agree a coherent position.

It is incompetence rather than malice which keeps us in.
