Wonder if Corbyn is so eager to have a GE right now

The Lib Dem’s have, to their credit, always been anti Brexit and consistent about it. However they only polled a measly 7% of the vote in the last GE.

I think at the time a lot of Remainers voted Labour but next time will vote Lib Dem as Jeremy Corbyn isn’t their man after all! The Brexit Party will be for Leave voters.

The Lib Dem = Remain
The Brexit Party = Leave

These will be the two big beasts in the next GE!

These council elections are just the sideshow.

The election results have certainly put massive question marks re 'The will of the people' !

Blow posted too soon. They have however kept a consistent line on Brexit with no weasel words. Personally I don’t agree with them but they have at least been honest.

Totally although I think it’s more disgust at the two main parties than proper support for the Lib Dem’s.

Why isn't anybody surprised they have done so well in the council elections?
