Whichever one is promising to cancel Brexit

Lib Dem, then, but also ayy lmao for thinking there's a chance in hell of that.

I thought Labour was overwhelmingly in favor of Remain?

On paper, at least, they are, but they're not "~promising to cancel Brexit~".

Well that's dumb. Brexit only barely won and the losing side was horrified. Making a single issue "This is your second chance to stay in the EU!!!" seems like it would be a great way to galvanize voters and get them to the polls.

It would be stupid, too, and make labour lose their base, but ok.

It would also be stupid, to reverse the vote of a democratic referendum.

If they campaign on canceling Brexit and win, then the people have spoken that they don't want Brexit anymore.

Yes, and by losing your base that voted to leave, a majority of labour constituencies that voted to leave, to lose the working class vote to the right-wing, to gain where?

Middle-Class Suburbs and Rich areas, that are most likely going to vote to vote tory anyway.

I'm sure that's going to be a wonderful campaign strategy.


All indications are that Labour is going to get shellacked anyway  - that's why the Conservatives are calling for an early election.

Brexit just barely passed, and there's already a lot of buyers remorse. Repainting this election into a second chance on Brexit certainly wouldn't be any worse for Labour than whatever other potential strategy they have.

The Lib Dems, the Greens and the SNP, especially the Lib Dems are already tapping into the "remoaner" niche. There is quite literally no benefit for Labour to follow this bandwagon, there is no gap in the market. And, as mentioned, by doing this, Labour will leave its base to be picked up by UKIP and the Conservatives. As a result, Labour will be nothing more than a niche party of the North London "Liberal Elite".
