People want control of their borders, money and laws, not jobs or food.

doesn’t the fact that growth forecasts and whatnot mean nothing to most people, cos they’re still broke and stuck in shit jobs regardless of how much growth there is, rather emphasize the point that most people are alienated from our economic model and using it to make a point about brexit is redundant?

and also because most of the people who voted leave, like home counties fash and booj tyrants, will do okay regardless and will be dead soon anyway, so they have no incentive to give a shit

Not 100% I’m getting you here, but people don’t care about macroeconomic figures because they’re boring and because they feel detached from the influence they have on their lives. This has been the case for all time though and just because you don’t make a connection with your personal circumstances it doesn’t mean there isn’t one. And there definitely is.

I meant the letter from JC to TM.

Found it.

Not sure how anyone can argue that this means a) he’s ruling out a second referendum or b) he’s not ruling out a second referendum.

Brighton Pavillion’s green. Hove is Peter Kyle, who seems at constant threat of deselection by local Momentum members, so I doubt he’d be impacted by what Corbyn is doing. Kemptown is Lloyd Russell-Moyle, who’s very new and is more likely to impacted by the upcoming boundary changes (where the constituency suddenly takes in a load of tory country villages). Shame, because he’s a good mp from what I can see.

legislation is meaningless.
It brings on many changes.
I can take or leave it if I please.

Sounds like they’re both saying the same thing i.e. outside of the EU workers rights could always be eroded by the government if they chose.

I don’t really get the ‘EU is great for workers rights’ thing. Obvs it could be a million times worse. But Yeah.
