Brexit *will* reduce immigration. And we won't like the economic consequences.

Very good read http://www.newstatesman.com/politics/staggers/2017/04/heres-why-amber-rudds-barista-vista-load-hot-air

Something that much of the political class doesn't get: the UK has near full employment and an ageing population:

This is going to be a massacre of Corbyn IMO, after the Westminster attack all the Torys have to do is keep bringing up his questionable views and associations with terrorists over the years and it's GG Beardo.

I really want a strong Labour party, in a way this is probably a good thing all round.

Actually all they need to do is say 'Can you imagine Jeremy Corbyn going into tough negotiations with Trump?' and it's over.

My first thought too if they go hard on anti brexit/second referendum ticket in some form or another.

Time to rub labours nose in it and put JC out to pasture!

This year I've made a concerted effort to stop binge consuming politics because it's such a time suck and debating with others rarely is that productive (except on this forum which is a rare exception).

However, no matter how unlikely, the idea of Corbyn leading this country strikes more fear into me than Trump, sigh, time to lose a few friends on social media.
