If you think the potential landslide is down to Brexit on 22:46 - Dec 12 by Kievthegreat | The problem is Corbyn. Remain IS still ahead in the polls. Conservatives+Brexit party will most likely receive a minority of votes. |
It's almost like democracy is an illusion! | |

If you think the potential landslide is down to Brexit on 22:56 - Dec 12 with 1645 views | Bent_double | The Tories have made gains in leave areas, and the Brexit Partys share of the vote in a few key areas they have shown so far is up to - surely that points to it all being about Brexit? | |

If you think the potential landslide is down to Brexit on 22:53 - Dec 12 by GlasgowBlue | Jon Ashworth said it when he didn't realise he was being recorded. If he and other moderates had bigger balls and had said it a year ago then we would be talking about a different result tonight. [Post edited 12 Dec 2019 22:57]

corbynistas have been told that they must blame this result solely on brexit. apparently they were massively popular on everything except brexit. corbyn was massively popular and they would have got away with it if it was for that damn brexit. | |

If you think the potential landslide is down to Brexit on 22:32 - Dec 12 by sparks | Quite right. A decent labour candidate would have walked this. But the hard left have potentially wrecked this country with their ideological dogmatism. |
Which Brexit position would this decent labour leader have taken to have walked this election? | |

If you think the potential landslide is down to Brexit on 23:05 - Dec 12 with 1580 views | Swansea_Blue | I don’t think that’s a given. Corbyn was the leader last time remember and nothing has changed with him since then. The Tory propaganda machine has ramped up substantially though. He’s a problem obviously, but a lot of people have also been duped. | |

If you think the potential landslide is down to Brexit on 22:45 - Dec 12 by Trequartista | Yes agreed, but the ones in the North and Midlands are in Labour strongholds which would never go blue in a non-Brexit world. Corbyn will get all the blame for this, and presumably will resign, but he was snookered basically. I don't see a successful Brexit position he could take. And if/when he does go it will be civil war in the Labour party. |
A revised deal without a referendum may have kept Labour supporters onside. He tried to walk down the middle of the road and seemingly got run over. | |

Labour failed to grasp the fact that membership of the Labour Party is not representative of the traditional labour voter. Corbyn may not be my cup of tea, but to be fair to him he did his best. Thinking of where the Labour Party goes from here it might be best if JC stays at least until the spring. | |

I am a remainer and I couldn't vote for the Tories today despite the fact that I have man love for Boris. But even as a remainer I can appreciate that there are some benefits of leaving The EU and I think it is quite right that people can exercise their right to say that they support Brexit without being called a racist. You are a very immature man. |

I think they did when they chose their leader, yeah. Maybe not the traditional voter, but certainly they didn’t consider the more moderate or floating voters, those that they need to win over to secure a majority. | |

he helped cause this by his position on Brexit. Had he actually campaigned for his party's official position, on the original referendum, Brexit would probably not even be an issue. He only needed to take a couple of percent of labour voters with him on remain. | |

How many leave voters voted Labour in the last election though? None of them liked or trusted him then, the press has a field day when May called the snap - “Crush the Saboteurs” I believe was the headline. I honestly think much of it comes down to the fact politics has become about liking narssisists who pretend they’re loveable and relatable buffoons. Trump, Boris, Farage, the list goes on. No one with the track record of Boris before, let alone after, should have been welcome anywhere near politics. | |

You can appreciate someone’s persona without agreeing with what they stand for. BoJo and like aren’t my cup of tea, but I don’t think worse of Lucan for liking him. | |

I’m a floating voter, always have been. I try to have faith in humanity, if that’s a crime, shoot me. And as someone who has had meltdowns over simply being told eating animals may be bad telling me about half baked truths may be a bit deep. I know you often get a free pass here for hypocrisy though so telling you won’t make a difference. | |

Lib Dem, Green, Labour, Labour. If Corbyn got in and didn’t deliver or betrayed his policies I’d go elsewhere. So are you going to admit you’re wrong and apologise? | |

Free pass? No mate. I think you’re too angered by the result here. Which I agree is a piss poor. Lucan isn’t showing any kinds of hypocrisy. He’s just said he likes the bloke. I see Newcastle Central has held firm as Labour. | |
