The LibDem brand is horribly damaged. They should get a few right-wing defectors from Labour and rebrand. The SDP might have worked if the Tories and Labour had both split at the same time.Morris_Dancer said:Mr. T, I agree.
Cameron's ramping up the bitterness, deepening the divide. The Conservative tiff has become more serious and there's a risk of a proper civil war. It's also a great opportunity for a rapid return for the Lib Dems and winning seats for UKIP, because Labour's led by Corbyn.0 -
Personally I'm warming to Jeremy Corbyn a lot. I'm increasingly finding him simple, straightforward and a mostly honest politician... Sure, he may hate the UK and everything it stands for but at least he's honest about it unlike the repulsive pair that's currently in charge.MP_SE said:
I am really really looking forward to the post-referendum split that will occur.GIN1138 said:
Make sure you remember what Cameron and Osborne have done. At every single available opportunity vote against them.MP_SE said:So much for the special relationship... Quite sickening to see the likes of Osborne cheer on Obama snubbing the UK.
This pair think they are the UK. Time to get rid.
For the first time in about 18 years I'm going to vote Labour in the local elections in two weeks. Will feel weird but also, oddly, liberating.0 -

You can tell the panic in Leave as they continue to attack Obama. Every time they do they help keep the main message in the media focus. Ignore it all and join battle on another day.0

The issue will never go away so long as Europe heads towards a federal super state. It is only a matter of deciding when we get off the train.SeanT said:
Well my optimum result is probably a REMAIN win by 50.1 over 49.9. If I'm honest. It means I personally benefit from the boost to London property prices and some stability for the next five-ten years (let's face it I'm doing very well out of the status quo).rottenborough said:
Newsnight focus grouped it and it was, to use a Obama phrase, a slam dunk. Boris came across as not very convinced in his denial and looking, frankly, rather unhappy and shifty. Leave must be utterly gutted tonight.SeanT said:
They are really unwise to keep parroting this "back of the queue" shit. No doubt they focus-grouped the phrase before asking Obama to use it, but I reckon it is too strong. We shall see.GIN1138 said:Here's Boy George lapping up Obama coming here to threaten and bully the people that gave him and Cameron their jobs;
https://twitter.com/George_Osborne/status/723576747044810753
But such a narrow win (or indeed anything narrower 60/40 in my opinion) will mean the issue will not go away, Cameron and Osborne will be f*cked, and the Tory party will swing right under a new and sceptic leader. And the EU will know that if they screw us over, we will vote again, this time OUT. And such a narrow result means we will revisit the issue within ten years, and this time quit properly.
But I also get to endlessly call the REMAINIANS traitors, which they are, and do it with righteous and agreeable pride, as I will now be certainly voting OUT, like a proper Brit (and I am prepared to pay the price if my cause actually wins).0 -

Hasn't it been shown he has used that word before?MP_SE said:Obama said "back of the queue". An interesting choice of words as "queue" is not commonly used in America, whereas "line" is. I wonder why he ended up using a word mainly used in the UK...

This is what people should really be worried about - Michael Fallon's comments. The referendum is leading to the masks slipping all around - you may have thought you voted for a 'eurosceptic' government last May but you have actually got a Eurofederalist one.

Nato was a 'slower moving organisation that requires more elongated political decisions', the partnership 'inside Europe' was able to deploy at 'very short notice'.

The perfect outcome for Farage is that we remain on a 55%/45% vote share... It keeps the whole issue alive, it allows UKIP to continue (and probably to thrive as everybody quits the Tories due to Cameron and Osborne treachery) and Farage himself can remain on the gravy train.

Just to make a point that no-one has yet made. Bollocks will we be at the back of any queue when it comes to the US getting it's corporate claws in. Surely no-one here is stupid enough to believe they aren't eyeing up that ring-fenced NHS budget and they will stop doing so if we leave the EU. If only that were the case. There will be 'through the night' discussions where a rumpled Cameron in yesterday's suit has 'managed' to get a deal for Britain #specialrelationship
Secondly, I think I'm becoming slightly firmer in my view that this intervention is a net negative for Remain. 'Back of the queue' is a toxic soundbite, and I don't think it's for Leave. I will accept that this could be strongly coloured by my own view.
However, if it is, I don't think it will show in the polls, unless in a rise in don't knows. But remember, all you have to do to stick two fingers up to the establishment in this referendum is stay at home.0 -
Only until then? Optimistic, I fear.Scrapheap_as_was said:this thread has been going on for circa 4 months as far as I can tell from my sporadic visits and no doubt will last until the eu-frothday has passed.
Your first line is key for me, in terms of how mad to be. I doubt all would praise him for the same tactics, but there are many who would, of that I have no doubt. Leave had better arguments we need to ensure they get as much if not more coverage than complaining the other side are using every advtanrage they have unfairly.TheScreamingEagles said:

That's as much to do with the reluctance of European nations to spend money on defence. Hence the pooling of what kit they do have to build up any kind of viable fighting force. Assuming any of it works.Luckyguy1983 said:

The US will do what's best for the US. Liam Fox talked about £57bn of trade each way. That's a big deal for the UK; it's a much smaller number for the Americans and plenty of it may be related to EU membership anyway.Luckyguy1983 said:

It's also worth noting $500bn or whatever represents a far smaller share if US trade than UK trade; and we don't know how much of the US investment is predicated on the UK's EU membership.

As we saw yesterday with Ashcroft's focus group, LEAVErs (the uncharitable might say hysterical ravings) proclamations about the Cameron/Kinnock/Ashdown photo proved to be a trifle overblown - so I suspect will their pronouncements on the Obama intervention.
If LEAVE had any sense, they would have dug into their history books and asked 'what happened last time a US President intervened in a UK referendum' (hint, it was less than two years ago, and at the time many of those now loudly complaining roundly defended Obama) and what lessons can we learn?
