What absolute nonsense. This election is nothing to do with Brexit as neither of the main parties are prepared to talk about it. Are Labour planning to take us back into the EU? They won't say because history has proven it is not a vote winner. Labour are scared to admit that that is what they want to do. Did you read the whole article? In any event the events of the past 14 years were predicted (not Brexit, even I thought people would not be that stupid, but here we are). Are the people who are about to elect this Labour rabble stupid Oldie? Many of them probably voted for Brexit. And yes, I did read the article.

The thing with this election is that normal people of the center have little choice. Who is going to vote Tory after their record of the last 14 years? Who would consider voting for a private company owned by a charlatan who is dog whistling to racist intent and with a innumerate proposition? Nobody I know is excited by Labour under Starmer but they feel they have little choice. I am sure also that many who do vote for Labour will be part of that narrow majority that voted for Brexit. Many that I interact with bitterly regret having done so or turn away sheepishly when the topic comes up. Brexit being the utter shambles we predicted it would be.

Yes, I agree, I don't see why anybody would want to vote for the Tories, but please, can you stop this nonsense about 'racist intent' with the Reform Party. Please point out a single policy of theirs that has "racist intent". You claim that Farage is Dog Whistling, well, you are doing the exact same thing with your headline comments that contain no substance.

Grange Hill legend Zammo diagnosed with skin cancer after finding worrying spot on face..by Susan Knox, Assistant Showbiz Editori2-prod.mirror.co.uk/incoming/article33117270.ece/ALTERNATES/s1200d/2_This-Morning-TV-show-London-UK-20-Nov-2018.jpgFormer Grange Hill legend Lee MacDonald has sadly revealed that he has been diagnosed with skin cancer. The actor, 56, who played Zammo McGuire in the hit 1980's show, announced that he was told he had skin cancer by doctors after he grew concerned about an 'unusual' spot on his face, and eventually went to get it checked. Taking to Instagram, the much-loved TV star shared his diagnosis with fans. Lee penned: "Went to the doctors today to check an unusual spot on my face! Doctor says it's cancer! As we older please keep an eye on anything unusual and hopefully get it looked at early!!! Booked in to get it sorted over the next couple of days." Speaking on This Morning back in 2020, George opened up on how he spent years secretly battling an undiagnosed mental health disorder, which left him hospitalised multiple times. George was only diagnosed with bipolar at the age of 43 and didn't speak to any of his co-stars about his struggles. George wrote about his mental health struggles in his book: “I wrote it as a therapeutic thing more than anything. I found I had time on my hands last year, it was the first time I was out of work for a while. I wrote that book as a warning in a way for people who have got what I’ve got and have been through, or going through, what I have been through. To see where I went wrong and think, ‘God, I won’t do that or I’ll try that what he done.’”

We all know that the WSJ is heavily anti Brexit. It always has been, so any opinion piece from them must be taken with a pinch of salt. You claim that the WSJ is a 'qua!ity press' outlet? Surely a quality media establishment would want to avoid trying to shape people's opinions and just report the news, so it isn't as much 'quality' as you are claiming it to be.

The "news" is the Brexit disaster and the regret being expressed. A bit laughable to demand media outlets report the news and not shape public opinion when lots on here quote the Daily Express, Daily Mail and GB News. 😂

Our politics got very dirty post Brexit result. Now today,we have dirty CH4 and their election cheating pals.

Unlike you I quoted from the top page of the report Maybe I've misunderstood, but I followed the link and as I could'nt see how many people were involved in this poll ( and you had neglected to say) , I went on the "more information" section. There I found only 2010 people took part,18 plus years age. Beg your pardon if I have misunderstood .

We’ve heard all this brexit rubbish before , the majority of people want to stay in the eu , then lost the 2016 referendum, it’s the will of the people , millions marching through London apparently , asses handed to them at 2019 election over it . When will these thick remainiacs ever learn ! And if I remember right you were all going to leave this country & go and live in the eu after the election you got your asses handed to you by Boris , what are you still doing in the uk ?
