Am minded to agree in some ways tbh.
I get the point but for the large part I don't think it's true and is a false equivalency particularly if recent polls by Tory members on Brexit and Muslims are anything to go by.

Anyway I was being overly harsh as it's not his perogative to take any sides amongst the main parties. It's just easier to wail on the sidelines and come across as superior without being constructive.

Sorry to be picky but I think you mean rail rather than wail, only saying then you know.

It'll basically be, 'Boris is trying to deliver on the will of the British people and deliver on the referendum result, and is trying to defend democracy' etc etc etc.

So and so line-up. Thornberry underwhelming- she even keeps a straight face when defending Labour's uselessness on actually having a Brexit policy.

Under a tree.
Why do remain ever have Thornberry representing them on Question time, I swear she is on it bi weekly. Only Diane Abbott comes across worse.

That was the worst edition of QT I've ever seen and that's saying something.
Yep. I've watch it avidly since Robin Day and that has to be the worst I have ever seen.

Has all this seriously been bubbling under the surface of this country for years, or has it been whipped up in the last 4?

The entrenchment is appalling.

What people from other nations must think I cannot imagine.

From being the bastion of reasoned and respectful debate we are at a point where that video of the brawl in the Turkish parliament is not that far away.

I am so ashamed.

What the feck has happened to us?
