David Cameron’s legacy lives on. When, in a fit of UKIP-induced panic, the then Prime Minister announced Britain would have an ‘in/out’ vote on Europe, he caused, in that single moment, divisions in the land that may never be healed. This is our ‘War of the Roses’ for the digital generation. And it goes from bad to worse to… who the fuck knows?

But weird things are occurring. Labour is reinventing itself as the ‘remain in Europe’ party. Which is as opportunistic as it is undemocratic. As ‘we’ did vote to leave after all. Yet all the Labour big-wigs have come out this week to state that they want another referendum and they’d encourage voters to ‘stay’. McDonnell was the first, then Diane Abbott followed, probably unaware of precisely what she was talking about but at least it came out ok at the time. Emily Thornberry concurred, piling pressure on Corbyn to adopt the new party line, even though he’s a leaver and always has been.

Corbyn will do absolutely anything to get into 10 Downing Street. Climbing in through an open window at night would be fine. Just get in there. Even for 10 minutes or so before he gets arrested for breaking and entering. Thus his ‘plan’ to call a vote of no confidence in Parliament and become ‘interim PM’ just so we can have another general election and stop the ‘no deal’ situation from becoming manifest.

And you’d think that with a vast majority of MPs passionately against the no deal scenario, Corbyn would be onto a winner. Albeit a short-term winner. Because if parliament is dissolved, the logical ‘stand in’ would always be the leader of the opposition. Who, in this instance, should have no problem garnering the sufficient support because no-one really wants the no-deal nuclear option.

Then Jo whassername, the new leader of the Lib Dems said she would never put Corbyn in Downing Street. And suggested that Harriet Harman or Ken Clarke (what the f***??) should stand for the role as interim leader. Basically, easy as ABC, Anyone But Corbyn. MPs polled for the Times agreed basically that anyone but Corbyn would be preferable. As did the sample of plebs. Well, voters, like you and me. Therefore rendering the no confidence option as useless as Labour will hold the most votes and presumably won’t be allowed to vote other than with the party whip, to support Corbyn who has virtually no support from anywhere else. Though you can’t trust Nicola Sturgeon.

With the government in continuing self-destruct mode over Europe, it should be a great time for the opposition party. Apparently though, not for an opposition party run by a toxic, anti-business, Arsenal-supporting, anti-Semitic, communist tosser.

Happy Wednesday
